TROUBLESHOOTING FOR FLOATLESS WATER LEVEL SWITCH
OPERATION:
1. Allow the sump to ll until the water level reaches the ON point.
2. Sump pump will turn on within 3 seconds of the water level reaching the ON point.
3. The pump will remain on until the water level drops below the OFF point. The pump may remain on up to 1 second after passing the
OFF point.
4. This will set the standard run time for the switch.
5. If the pump runs for longer than the standard run time, the standard run time will be incremented by 5 seconds on future cycles. This
will repeat until the run time is long enough for the water to reach the off level or the run time is increased to two minutes.
6. If water is over the "ON" level the pump will run continuously until the water is below the "ON" level, at which point the switch will revert
to standard operation.
