Introduction

The PHCC Pro Series 1730 backup sump pump
system is battery-operated. It is designed as an
emergency backup system to support your main
AC sump pump, and it will automatically begin
pumping any time the float switch is activated
by rising water. Should any malfunction or
emergency occur that involves the sump pump,
the battery, or the AC power, the Pro Series
system will sound an alarm. A light on the
display panel of the control unit will indicate
the cause of the alarm and the corrective action.

For added reliability, the float switch has, not
one, but two floats. Should one float fail to
operate, the second float automatically
activates the pump.

The Pro Series 1730 Sump Pump System
includes:
• A control unit with a dual float switch, a

battery fluid level sensor, battery cables,
and a 20 amp fuse

• A pump with a 1½” PVC pipe adapter
• A plastic wire tie for mounting the float

switch

• A battery box
• A battery charger
• A battery cap with a hole to accommodate

the fluid sensor

• A battery filler for adding distilled water

to the battery

You will also need to supply:

• A Pro Series 2200 Standby Battery*

DO NOT use an automotive battery with this
system
DO NOT use a Pro Series 1000 battery with
this system. It will not run the pump as long
as the Pro Series 2200 battery

• 1½” rigid PVC pipe and fittings
• PVC primer and cement
• A union with hose clamps or a “Y” con-nector

and two (2) check valves, depending on the
installation method you use

• A surge protector (recommended)
• Six (6) quarts of 1.265 specific gravity

battery acid

* Pro Series standby batteries are specifically

designed to work with your battery backup
sump pump system. Glentronics can not
guarantee the compatibility of other brands
of batteries. For optimal performance the use
of a Pro Series battery is recommended.

For narrow sump pits you will need some
additional parts:
• An “L” bracket at least six (6) inches long

(preferably one that will not rust)

• Two (2) stainless steel hose clamps
• One (1) stainless steel screw (#8-32 x 3/4”), a

matching washer & nut

Use of a Pro Series
Klunkless Check
Valve™ will provide
quieter operation.
