Initial Start-Up And Operation - Zoeller ProPak 508/53 Instructions D'installation

1. Ensure O-ring is properly located on pump discharge. Slide DC pump into
fitting and tighten the hose clamp (see Figure 2).
2. The preferred method of installation for backup pumps is shown in Figure 1.
The installation kit includes one check valve for installing with the backup
pump discharging into the primary pump outlet pipe. An additional check
valve is incorporated in the discharge of the backup pump.
3. Select location for battery and control charger. Control charger must be
within 6' (1.87 m) of a 115 V wall outlet and within 6' (1.8 m) of pump and
basin. Connect to a separate circuit, different than the primary pump.
4. Make certain the float switch clamp is tight on the pipe to avoid slippage.
Ensure that the "off" level of the float is 1" (25 mm) min. above the discharge
tee of the DC backup pump (see Figure 1). Position pumps in the sump and
move float up and down, making sure of free movement without interference
from any obstructions inside the sump or lid. Very shallow sumps may
require some adjustment to avoid overfilling or backing up of water into the
sump inlet. The float switch can be moved on the discharge pipe or the
rubber stops can be adjusted as necessary. Cut extra float rod length below
lower float stop to prevent debris from interfering with float operation (see
figure 2).
5. Mount DC control charger to the wall. If more convenient, the control
charger may be set on a nearby shelf or ledge. The control charger should
be located 3' (1 m) or 4' (1.2 m) above the sump.
6. Connect the green sensor wire to the sensor connector (Figure 3).
7. Connect the leads from the control charger to the battery terminals. White
pos. (+) lead to positive terminal and black neg. (-) lead to negative battery
1. Test the installation for leaks by running water into the sump allowing for
normal operation of the primary pump.
2. Check the control charger. The red power on light will be lit when the unit
is plugged into the 115 V wall outlet. The yellow/green light will indicate
the condition of the battery.
3. Disconnect primary pump before touching any component in the sump pit.
4. Lift float switch. The DC backup pump will run and the alarm will sound
after 1 or more seconds. Lower float switch immediately after alarm has
started. Pump is running dry during initial check out for several seconds.
Continuous dry running may cause overheating and damage
CAUTION
the pump seals. Upon release of the float switch, the pump will shut off.
Press the reset button to turn the alarm off.
1. Inspect and test the system for proper operations at least every 3 months.
(a) Red power on indicator light should be on indicating AC power
is on.
(b) Unplug primary pump and the control charger from power supply.
(c) Fill sump with water to the "on" level for the DC pump. Allow
pump to run a few minutes.
(d) The alarm will sound approximately 3 seconds after the pump
starts to run.
(e) Push alarm reset switch. The alarm will go off.
(f) Pump will shut off after water level is lowered and the float drops
to the off position.

reset to silence. This indicates proper charger to battery connection.
Correct battery hook up is essential for operation of the

system. Use nuts supplied with battery and eyelet connectors on battery
wire leads. The positive terminal is the larger stud, 3/8" (10 mm) diameter.
The smaller stud, 5/16" (8 mm) diameter is the negative terminal. Apply
grease to the terminals to help prevent corrosion.
8. Connect the black lead from the pump to the negative (-) battery terminal.
Connect the white lead from the switch to the positive (+) battery terminal.

signal an auxiliary device of a low battery, high water and reverse polarity
alarm condition. This simple 2-wire connection is rated at a maximum of
24 V AC/DC and 0.5 amps. It can be used with an auto-dialer (such as
the Zoeller 10-2616), alarm or home security system. Read the auxiliary
equipment's documents for further instructions.
5. Complete the final testing of your installation by disconnecting the power to
the primary pump and the control charger by removing the plugs from the
115 V wall outlets. Run water into the sump until the DC backup pump is
activated by the float switch. Check all connections for leaks.
6. Push alarm reset switch when pump is running. This will silence the alarm.
The pump will continue to run.
7. Reconnect the control charger and your primary pump to the AC wall outlets.
The primary pump should come on and lower the water level in the sump
back to the normal operating level and shut off. Both primary and backup
systems are now ready for use.
8. The battery charged and charging LED's will alternate during normal
charging operation.
Plug the control charger and the primary pump into the wall outlet.
(a) The primary pump will come on and lower the water to the
normal operating level and shut off.
(b) The yellow charging light should be on. The charger is replacing
the energy consumed during the test. The green light will come
on after the charger has replaced the energy consumed during
the test.
Add distilled water to battery when necessary per battery manufacturer's
instructions.
