Installation is straightfoward, just plug the battery backup into the AC, plug the existing sump pump into the backup and attach a 12V deep cycle battery. The battery backup will automatically charge the battery and wait on standby until the power drops out. Any sized battery can be used, letting you choose how much backup time you need. When the power returns the battery backup electronics switches the pump to wall power and starts to charge the battery. Back up time is proportional to battery size. Compatible with a sealed lead acid battery technologies, no acid needed or fumes emitted. Only use deep-cycle batteries, car batteries will fail quickly Takes no space in the sump pit, so it is an excellent enhancement for an existing sump pump. Please note that these inverters are pure sine wave. A motor will only use the sine wave portion of a "modified sine wave" inverter, converting the rest of the wave into heat in the motor.
Recommended batteries: Sealed lead acid batteries are compatible with this application, for exampe this 120AH model https://www.powerstream.com/store/bp120-12.htm  |
