INSTALLING THE ALARM & FLOAT SWITCH

2. Insert screw (supplied) at desired wall location.
Note: Screw is to be located over wall stud or used with
a wall anchor sized for a #8 x 1.25" self tapping screw.
3. Hang alarm using keyhole on back of enclosure. Install
second screw in mounting fl ange located on bottom of

4. Make sure power to alarm is disconnected.
5. Place the fl oat switch cord into the clamp as shown in

6. Locate the clamp at the desired activation level and secure
the clamp to the discharge pipe as shown in Figure A.
Note: Do not install cord under hose clamp.
7. Tighten the hose clamp using a screwdriver. Over tightening
may result in damage to the plastic clamp. Make sure the
fl oat cable is not allowed to touch the excess hose clamp
band during operation.
Note: All hose clamp components are made of 18-8
stainless steel material. See your Liberty Pumps ® supplier
for replacements.
8. Bring cable leads back to alarm and wire according to
Figure B. A cord bung is included with the kit.
Note: When used with a pump application, connect alarm
to a circuit separate from the pump circuit. This allows the
alarm to operate if the pump circuit fails.
9. Open battery door and install 9 VDC alkaline battery (not
included). Battery must be installed for backup alarm
to function. Note: The green power on light does not
come on when unit is on battery power.
10. Plug the alarm in to apply primary power. Verify that the
green "power on" light illuminates.
11. Check installation by manually tipping the fl oat. The horn
will sound and the "alarm" light should come on.
12. Press "silence" button to silence the horn. The horn will
silence while the red "alarm" light stays on.
13. Tip fl oat back down and press "test" button. The "alarm"
light and horn will activate.
14. Test unit once a week. Replace battery every 12 months
and after each alarm condition to ensure proper
operation. If battery is low, low battery chirp feature will

Replace battery when this happens.
