1. What is the Edincare 2198 Battery Backup Pump System used for?
It provides backup pumping where failure of a primary pump or loss of mains power could lead to flooding or serious property damage.
2. What power supply does the backup pump use?
The backup pump operates on 24V DC, while the control panel has a 230V AC power supply.
3. What is the maximum pumping capacity?
The datasheet specifies a maximum flow rate of 150 litres per minute and a maximum vertical output of 6 metres. Actual flow depends on the pumping head and installation conditions.
4. Does the system include an alarm?
Yes. The control panel provides visual and audible high-level alarms. Three mini float switches are provided to activate the pump and high-level alarm.
5. Does the system include battery charging?
Yes. The system includes trickle charging to condition the battery and maintain its charge. Confirm the required battery specification and supply arrangements with the manufacturer before installation.
Installation & Important Information
The manufacturer's installation diagram shows the backup system connected alongside a 230V mains pump, with the control panel, float switches and non-return valve forming part of the arrangement. It also identifies suitably rated dedicated breakers and a 13A unswitched fused spur. Optional connections are available for volt-free contacts and a 24V remote alarm.
Installation should be undertaken by a suitably qualified professional in accordance with the manufacturer's instructions and the requirements of the site.
Please check the required battery specification and whether a battery is included in the supplied package before ordering, as the datasheet describes the battery charging function but does not clearly confirm the battery's inclusion or specification.
