The unit is not receiving AC power

There are several causes for power failure. The
most common is a power outage by your electric
company. During this emergency, the Pro Series
system will automatically switch to battery
power and protect your basement from flooding.

You can silence the “AC power failure” alarm for
24 hours by pressing the GRAY button on the
front of the control panel for five (5) seconds.
The alarm will be silenced, but the light will stay
on. The system will continue to operate while
the power alarm is silenced. After 24 hours, the
alarm will reset automatically.

1. If the power is on in the rest of the house,

check the home circuit breaker or fuse box for
failure, and correct the problem. Check the
outlet to make
sure it is working.

2. Check the charger.

Make sure it is
securely plugged
into

the

wall

outlet.

3. Check the charger plug that fits into the rear

panel of the control unit. Make sure it is
securely plugged into the control unit.

The control unit must receive 115 volts AC +/-
5% from the AC outlet. Any voltage lower than
110 volts will activate the power failure alarm.
Lower voltages can be caused by utility company
brown outs or a heavy power draw from other
appliances on the same circuit. Reduce the
number of appliances on the circuit.

If all the connections are secure and the wall
outlet is operating, but the “AC power failure”
warning light is still on, replace the charger unit
with the Pro Series part number 1015001 from
Glentronics at 800-991-0466, option #3.

Charging

The Pro Series 1730 backup pump is equipped
with a computer-controlled automatic charging
system. The computer is constantly monitoring
the battery and will supply a pre-programmed
amount of energy to keep your battery at full
charge. The “Charging” light will be on or
flashing while the battery is charging, and off
when it is not charging. If the battery is

discharged from extended use, the charger light
will remain on until the battery is completely
recharged.

System Operating

This light will always be on when there is power
coming from either the battery or the outlet.

TEST-RESET-SILENCE BUTTON

To test the pump, press the GRAY button on the
front of the control panel for one (1) second.
The pump will run for 2 seconds and then shut
off automatically.

To silence an alarm, press the Gray button for
one (1) second. Some alarms cannot be
silenced, since action needs to be taken to
prevent a flood.

To silence the alarms for 24 hours, press the
GRAY button for five (5) seconds until you hear
a buzz. The alarms will automatically reactivate
in 24 hours.

TESTING THE FLOAT SWITCH FOR THE
BACKUP PUMP

It is important to manually test the float
switches periodically or after any maintenance.

Unplug the main AC pump when installing or
servicing the backup pump to avoid electric
shock. Failure to do so could cause serious
injury or death. Review the safety
instructions on page 1.
