PHCC Pro Series Pro Series 2400 Battery Backup Sump Pump System - Manual (Page 3)

Introduction
The PHCC Pro Series 2400 A/C-D/C backup sump
pump 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.
If your main AC pump breaks or is unable to keep
up with all the incoming water, the Pro Series
pump is capable of running without discharging
the battery, as long as the AC power is on. As
soon as the AC power is interrupted, the battery
takes over. 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 mounted within a protective
cage. Should one float fail to operate, the second
float automatically activates the pump. The
protective cage prevents debris or other wires
from interfering with the movement of the floats.
To extend the battery run time, two batteries may
be connected to the Pro Series 2400 system by
purchasing a second battery and acid pack, as
well as a set of battery jumper cables. Jumper
cables specifically designed for this use are
available from the manufacturer, Glentronics, Inc.
The Pro Series Sump Pump System includes:
• A control unit with a dual float switch, a
battery fluid level sensor, battery cables, a 5
amp AC fuse, and a 20 amp DC fuse
• A metal hose clamp for mounting the float
switch
• A pump
• A battery box
• A battery filler bottle for adding distilled
water to the battery
You will also need to supply:
• A Pro Series 2200 Standby Battery or a Pro
Series Maintenance-Free Battery (B12-90)
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 or B12-90 battery
The internal construction of some wet cell batteries
may not be compatible with this system.
Glentronics can not guarantee the compatibility of
other brands of batteries. The use of a Pro Series
battery is HIGHLY recommended.
• 1½” rigid PVC pipe and fittings
• PVC primer and cement
• A union with hose clamps or a “Y” connector
and two (2) check valves, depending on the
installation method you use
• A 1½” PVC pipe adapter (1½” SLIP x 1½”
MIPT)
• A surge protector (recommended)
• Six (6) quarts of 1.265 specific gravity battery
acid
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
To connect two batteries you will
need:
• Two (2) batteries of similar age and
capacity (so they will have equal
power)
• Another battery box (optional)
• Two (2) acid packs to fill the dry batteries
• A set of battery cables with rings on both
ends to connect the two batteries together
(available from Glentronics, Inc.)
Use of a Pro Series
Klunkless Check
Valve™ will provide
quieter operation.
