Additional Information

The HydroCheck HC8000T Electronic Sump Pump Float Switch with Programmable Run Time and Built-in Alarms works with all types of sump pumps and can be used in place of any float switch. Unlike traditional float switches, the HC8000T is unaffected by water with high mineral or iron content due to its dry-sensor technology. No submerged parts in the pit ensures reliability. 

 

The HC8000T will run the pump for a precise amount of time when triggered by the water reaching the sensor tip. Use the Smart Button to easily program a precise cycle length for your sump pump that will begin when water reaches the sensor tip. Built-in alarms will alert you if there is a problem with the pump or the discharge plumbing. Not rated for outdoor use.

 

How It Works

The placement of the sensor determines when the programmed pump cycle begins. After the cycle has finished, the pump will turn off. Following the sequence below, the operation is as follows:

 

1. The pump is off when the water is below the sensor.

2. When water reaches the sensor the pump is turned on.

3. The pump stays on for the duration of the programmed run time. 

4. The pump is turned off when the programmed run time has expired.

 

Notice that in the HC8000T’s operation the sensor is never submerged and is therefore unaffected by water with high mineral or iron content.
