Battery Selection - Zoeller ProPak 507-C Instructions D'installation

The DC emergency pump system requires a good quality, 12 volt battery to obtain maximum pumping time during a power outage. A deep-cycle, 12
volt, 105 amp-hour marine battery or larger is recommended and will provide approximately 7½ hours of continuous pumping time in a sump pump
installation with 8' (2.4 mm) of head pressure. In most installations the pump runs intermittently and the battery life is extended accordingly. Batteries
with top terminals are recommended for ease of installation. These batteries contain acid and proper precaution must be taken when handling to fit in
included battery box. Maximum battery size to fit inside battery box is 12½" (318 mm) Length x 7" (178 mm) Width x 9½" (241 mm) Height.
The DC emergency pump is designed as a backup to your primary sump pump during unexpected power outages or primary pump failure. The DC pump,
electronic controls and all the parts required for installation are included except the battery which is supplied by the user. The system is designed for
installation in sumps with minimum of 18" (457 mm) diameter and 24" (610 mm) deep. For 18" x 22" (457 mm x 559 mm) applications, consult factory.
EASY DO'S & DON'TS FOR INSTALLING A SUMP PUMP
1. DO read thoroughly all installation material provided with the system.
2. DO inspect system for any visible damage caused by shipping. Contact
dealer if system appears to be damaged.
3. DO clean all debris from the sump. Be sure that the pump will have a hard,
flat surface beneath it. DO NOT install on sand, gravel or dirt.
4. DO be sure that the sump is large enough to allow proper clearance for the
level control switch(es) to operate properly.
5. DO always disconnect pump from power source before handling.
DO always connect to a separately protected and properly grounded circuit.
DO NOT ever cut, splice, or damage power cord (Only splice in a watertight
junction box).
DO NOT carry or lift pump by its power cord.
RECOMMENDED INSTALLATION FOR ALL APPLICATIONS
1. Electrical wiring and protection must be in accordance with National
Electrical Code and any other applicable state and local electrical
requirements.
2. All installations require a basin cover to prevent debris from falling into
the basin and to prevent accidental injury.
3. Securely tape or clamp power cord to discharge pipe, clear of the float
mechanism(s).
4. Use a full-size discharge pipe.
5. Basin must be in accordance with applicable codes and specifications.
