INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
QUICK INSTALLATION & BATTERY ESSENTIALS
Pump Sentry™ is designed to operate with an external battery or battery bank
whose nominal operating voltage is 12V, and whose single or combined A-
Hr. rating does not exceed 250 A-hr. A full recharge will take 13 hours or 30
hours for batteries of 100 A-hr. and 250 A-hr. respectively. Pump Sentry™
will maintain batteries at full charge while electricity is available. See page 13
of this manual to learn more about the charger function indicators.
BATTERY TYPE
Only batteries conforming to Battery Council International (BCI) group size
27 or larger are recommended (up to size 31). Only deep cycle batteries are
designed for the type of service which Pump Sentry™ requires. INSTALL
ONLY deep cycle batteries. (wet cell or AGM type) The marine-variety is
acceptable. DO NOT use car batteries. (See page 8 for some suggested
sources.)
BATTERY BOX
Your selected battery(ies) should be installed in a high quality plastic or metal
battery box that comes with a lid that is designed for said box. It is available
at the point of battery purchase.
BATTERY CABLES
Use only the cables furnished with Pump Sentry™ that are packaged in its
carton. They are equipped with the terminations necessary for reliable and
solid connection.
The ends with the blade terminals mate with the RED and BLACK battery
cable connectors on the Pump Sentry, while the other ends are furnished with
Ring terminals designed to fit over the wing nut posts of most batteries.

Sentry™ power cord is not plugged into an AC outlet.
c) Connect the blade end of the red battery cable supplied with the unit
into the red terminal block located adjacent to the fan air intake port.
Tighten the set screw of the block till the cable is well secured.
d) Perform the sequence in see with the black cable into the black terminal
block located adjacent to the red one.
e) Slide the battery into its protective box and place into its designated
spot sufficiently close to the Pump Sentry™ to allow the battery cables
to reach. DO NOT USE LONGER CABLES THAN THOSE
SUPPLIED WITH PUMP SENTRY™ as this may adversely affect the
time available for backup operation.
f) Connect the ring terminal end of the BLACK battery cable to the
battery NEGATIVE terminal.
g) Connect the ring terminal end of the RED battery battery cable to the
battery POSITIVE terminal. WARNING: WHEN DOING THIS STEP
THERE WILL BE A PERCEPTIVE SPARK AT THE TERMINAL
AS SOME COMPONENTS IN THE PUMP SENTRY™ CHARGE
UP. THIS IS NORMAL.
h) Once (g) is completed cover your battery box and secure the lid.
i) Plug the sump pump into the Pump Sentry™.
j) Plug the Pump Sentry™ into a wall outlet which has a minimum
capacity of 20A.
k) Turn ON the ON/OFF switch located to the left of the fan air intake
port.
l) Installation is complete.
INSTALLATION TEST
To make sure the installation is good, it should be tested per the following:
a) Raise the water level float switch controlling the pump causing the
pump to go ON.
b) Disconnect the Pump Sentry’s plug, mentioned in (j), from the wall
outlet. After a slight pause your sump pump should continue to operate.
If it does not, review steps (a) though (l) above.

The Pump Sentry™ is an innovative power station designed to operate your
pump during a power outage. When properly installed, it will provide many
years of reliable service.
To ensure that the Pump Sentry™ is optimally used and properly connected,
we recommend its installation be made by a licensed electrician or fully
qualified professional. Read these instructions completely and follow
directions carefully.

How The Pump Sentry Works
When electricity is present, the Pump Sentry™ charges a 12-volt battery and
surveys the power line. At the instant that a power failure occurs, the Pump
Sentry converts the energy stored in the battery to AC power to operate your
pump. When AC utility power is restored, the Pump Sentry automatically
switches your pump back to AC utility power, recharges the battery, and
monitors the power line.
While the Pump Sentry is a sophisticated electronic device, it should not be
expected to perform beyond its limitations, and extreme care should be taken
to insure safe operation within specifications.

WARNING:
RISK OF ELECTRICAL
SHOCK
In the event of a short circuit,
grounding reduces the risk of
electrical shock by providing a
safe path to ground. The Pump
Sentry must be properly grounded.
The Pump Sentry is equipped with
a cord having a ground wire with
an appropriate three pronged plug.
The plug must be used with an
outlet that has been installed and
grounded in accordance with all
local electrical codes and
ordinances. Where a two pronged
wall outlet is encountered, it must
be replaced with a three pronged
outlet by a qualified Electrician to
reduce the risk of shock, the third
prong must not be cut off the plug.
DO NOT attempt to defeat this
safety feature.
Use Pump Sentry only with
adequate wiring that is up to
electrical code specifications.
Connect to properly grounded
outlets only.
WARNING:
RISK OF ELECTRICAL
SHOCK
The Pump Sentry is capable of,
and intended to generate electrical
voltage when unplugged from a
wall outlet or when AC power is
shut off.
Because Pump Sentry uses batteries to
generate 120 volts of AC power, both
the batteries and the power cord must be
disconnected to neutralize the Pump
Sentry. Failure to disconnect both the
batteries and the power cord could result
in electrical shock sufficient to cause
injury or death
FAILURE TO COMPLY WITH THE ABOVE WARNINGS COULD
RESULT IN INJURY OR DEATH
