appliances on the same circuit. Reduce the

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 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 while the
battery is charging, and off when it is not
charging. The normal charge cycle is in one-
hour increments, which increases the life of the
battery and reduces the amount of water loss. 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 25 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

It is important to manually test the float
switch periodically.
DANGER
!
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.
Lift the float up and let
go. This will activate
the pump. The control
unit will run the pump
LIFT
FLOAT
for approximately 25
seconds so it can
empty all the water in
the sump pit.
While
the pump is active,
water will come out of the 1/8" hole that was
drilled into the PVC discharge pipe. This is
normal. The hole is needed to prevent an air
lock within the system. DO NOT obstruct the
hole or an air lock may prevent the system from
activating. If there is no water in the pit, the
pump can run dry for this amount of time. The
alarm will sound and the "Pump was activated"
light will go on. After the pump has stopped,
push the GRAY button to silence the alarm. BE
SURE TO PLUG IN THE MAIN AC PUMP WHEN
YOU HAVE COMPLETED THE TEST.

MAINTENANCE CHECK LIST

Maintenance should be performed 1-2 times per
year
1. Lift the float switch as described at left.
2. Remove all debris from the bottom of the pit.
3. Remove all debris from the water.
4. Remove all debris from the float switch.
5. Fill the pit with water. Make sure the pump
turns on at the intended level.
6. While the pump is running, make sure the
pump is evacuating water at a good pace and
water is coming out of the 1/8" air bleed hole.
7. Remove the fluid sensor and yellow cap from
the battery and rinse any residue buildup from
the bottom of the battery cap. Replace the
cap and fluid sensor.
