Nastavitev in namestitev

Proper installation is crucial for the reliable operation of your battery back-up sump pump system. This system is designed to work as a backup to a primary sump pump.

1. Sump Pit Requirements

The sump pit must have a minimum diameter of 18 inches and a minimum depth of 22 inches to accommodate both the primary sump pump and the Zoeller 508-0006 system, including the battery case.

2. Namestitev baterije

1. Place the battery case (non-corrodible polyethylene) in a suitable location near the sump pit, ensuring it is easily accessible for maintenance.
2. Insert a 12V deep cycle marine battery (not included) into the battery case. The maximum battery dimensions are 13" L x 7-1/2" W x 9-1/2" H.
3. Connect the battery cables from the control box to the battery terminals. Ensure correct polarity: red to positive (+), black to negative (-). The system has reverse polarity protection and an alarm.

3. Pump and Plumbing Installation

1. Position the Zoeller 508-0006 pump in the sump pit, ensuring it is below the primary pump's activation level but above the pit floor to prevent debris intake.
2. Connect the pump's discharge to the included tee fitting. This tee allows both the primary pump and the backup pump to discharge through a common pipe.
3. Install the included DC pump discharge check valve above the backup pump and the AC pump check valve above the primary pump to prevent backflow.
4. Secure all plumbing connections to prevent leaks.

4. Električna povezava

Plug the 6-foot power cord from the control box into a standard 120V AC outlet. The control box will begin charging the battery and monitoring the system.

Navodila za uporabo

The Zoeller 508-0006 system operates automatically once properly installed and powered.

Samodejno delovanje

• The system continuously monitors the battery charge and the water level in the sump pit.
• If the water level rises above the primary pump's activation point and reaches the backup pump's float switch, the 12V DC pump will automatically activate and begin pumping water out of the pit.
• The pump will continue to operate until the water level drops below the float switch's deactivation point.

Control Box Indicators and Alarms

The control box provides visual and audible feedback on the system's status:

• LED Light (Battery Power): Indicates the current charge level of the battery. Refer to the control box label for specific light patterns and their meanings (e.g., green for charged, yellow for charging, red for low).
• LED Light (Float Activated): Illuminates when the float switch is engaged and the pump is running.
• Alarm za visoko vodo: An audible alarm will sound if the water level in the sump pit reaches a critical high point, indicating potential system failure or overwhelming water inflow.
• Alarm za nizko stanje baterije: An audible alarm will sound if the battery charge drops to a critical level, indicating the need for inspection or replacement.
• Alarm za obrnjeno polarnost: An audible alarm will sound if the battery is connected incorrectly (positive to negative, negative to positive). Correct the connections immediately.

Vzdrževanje

Regular maintenance ensures the longevity and reliability of your Zoeller 508-0006 system.

Mesečni pregledi:

1. Testno delovanje: Manually lift the float switch to activate the pump. Ensure the pump runs smoothly, discharges water, and the float activated LED illuminates.
2. Pregled baterije: Check the battery terminals for corrosion. Clean if necessary. Verify the battery fluid levels (if applicable for your battery type) and top off with distilled water if needed.
3. Sump Pit Cleanliness: Inspect the sump pit for debris, dirt, or sediment that could obstruct the pump or float switch. Remove any obstructions.
4. Zaporni ventili: Ensure both the DC and AC pump check valves are functioning correctly and not leaking.

Letni pregledi:

• Zamenjava baterije: Batteries typically last 3-5 years. Consider replacing your deep cycle marine battery every 3-5 years, or sooner if performance degrades.
• Sistemski pregled: Visually inspect all components for wear, damage, or loose connections.
