Product Manual

GENERAL INFORMATION
The Battery Backup Combo Kit is pre-plumbed up to
the hose and clamp assembly. The system includes the
primary sump pump (PSP), backup sump pump (BSP)
assembly, and vertical float switch. The unit is equipped
with two check valves - one for the primary pump and
one for the backup pump.
The battery backup pump is not a substitute for your
primary sump pump. It is designed to temporarily backup
your primary sump pump during a power outage or other
problem which prevents normal operation of the primary
pump. Do not use this system to pump flammable liquids
or chemicals. Pump clear sump water only with this
pump. For residential use only.
Keep the battery charger dry and protected from damage.
This system is designed to work with either a sealed
lead-acid AGM battery or a flooded lead-acid battery.
Use of a true Gel Cell (often confused for AGM) or a
standard automotive battery with this charger is not
recommended. An automotive battery may require
charging after only 1-2 hours of continuous use, and the
repeated charging cycles may cause early plate failure in
the battery.
