SUMP PUMP DESCRIPTION

Sump pumps are automatic pumps used to remove ground water from sump pits. The most common application is for basement drainage to prevent flooding in residential buildings. These pumps are designed to pump clear water only. With the innovative and reliable Air Switch, your pump is no longer limited by the mechanical cycles of traditional float switch style pumps. The integrated controller and companion app for your iOS or Android device keeps you informed of the status of your pump; informing you whenever there is a problem and your basement is no longer protected.

These pumps are not designed to be used with a portable generator. Installation of this pump outdoors, unprotected from the weather, may cause hazardous conditions and will void warranty. Water inside the pump may freeze, limiting its performance and damaging the pump and pipes.

UNPACKING

Inspect this unit before it is used. Occasionally, products are damaged during shipment. If the pump or components are damaged, return the unit to the place of purchase for replacement, or call Customer Support (800-237-0987)

TYPICAL SUMP INSTALLATION

1. This installation must be in accordance with the National Electric Code and all applicable local codes and ordinances.

2. Use a basin (purchased separately) or pit that is large enough to accommodate the pump.

3. Clean the basin/pit of all debris.

4. If using a basin, place the pump directly on the bottom of the basin. To prevent damage set the pump on a solid, level surface. Do not place pump directly on clay, earth, gravel or sand. A brick or block must be installed under the pump to provide a solid  base.

5. Install discharge plumbing according to local, regional and state codes. Rigid PVC pipe is required. Do not use flex hosing in a permanent application.

6. Install a check valve (required) to prevent back-flow. The Wayne check valve (57028-001) may be positioned just above the basin to allow easy removal of the pump for cleaning and service.

7. Install a gate valve or ball valve if required by local, regional or state code.

8. Connect pump power supply cord to a ground fault circuit interrupter (GFCI) receptacle.
   NOTE: Pump will initially run when plugged in to calibrate Air Switch.
   NOTE: Do not pinch or constrict Air Tube.

9. Fill the basin/pit with water. The pump will activate when the water level has reached level 4 on the controller.

10. The pump will stop when the water level has reached the switch-off level.

11. Fill the basin/pit with water again. While the pump is draining the basin/pit, verify the discharge pipe is carrying the water to a point at least 3 ft. away from the foundation. If the discharge line is exposed to freezing temperatures, the pipe must be positioned in a downward slope away from the foundation so any remaining water will drain away and not freeze.

12. Secure the basin cover and gasket to the basin to prevent debris from falling into the basin, prevent personal injury, and to contain gases and/or odors.

13. For device activation follow the instructions found on the next page.

TROUBLESHOOTING WARNINGS

Warning

ALWAYS DISCONNECT THE PUMP FROM POWER SUPPLY before installing, servicing or making any adjustments.

Warning

LET PUMP COOL FOR A MINIMUM OF 2 HOURS BEFORE ATTEMPTING TO SERVICE. Submersible pumps contain oil that become pressurized and hot under normal operating conditions.

1. Submersible pump models have permanently lubricated bearings and require no additional lubrication.
2. Submersible pumps contain dielectric oil for cooling. Dielectric oil can be harmful to the environment. Follow state environmental laws when disposing of pump.
3. The pump motor is equipped with automatic resetting thermal protector and may restart unexpectedly. Protector tripping is an indication of motor overloading as a result of operating the pump at low heads, excessively high or low voltage, i nadequate wiring, incorrect motor conditions, or at the end of product life.

ROUTINE SUMP MAINTENANCE

The pump should be inspected 3-4 times per year for pump movement or buildup of debris on the switch. Reposition pump if it has moved. Remove any debris that could interfere with the operation of the switch. Lack of proper routine maintenance will void warranty.

• Make sure the pump is plugged in to a working ground fault circuit interrupter (GFCI) outlet and the cord is in good shape. In damp areas, GFCI breakers may trip, effectively shutting off the sump pump. Check in on your sump pump and reset the GFCI if necessary.
• Ensure the pump is standing upright. Vibrations during operation can cause it to fall or tilt onto one side.
• Pour a bucket of water into the pit to make sure the pump starts automatically and the water drains quickly once the pump is on. If the pump doesn’t start, have it serviced or replaced.
• Check the inlet screen and clear away any small stones or debris.
