Sump Alarm 50-Pk SinkWire 2-Pc Cable Orientation Weight (SA-CW-50)

The Sump Alarm 50-Pk SinkWire 2-Pc Cable Orientation Weight (SA-CW-50) is expertly designed to attach to your float switch cable using the included button head cable tie. This essential component plays a crucial role in your sump pump system by providing the necessary weight to correctly orient the float switch as water levels fluctuate. Unlike weights intended for complete submersion of the float, this cable weight ensures the float pivots properly, leading to accurate detection of rising and falling water. Its design requires minimal vertical space, needing only 3 to 5 inches between the float switch and the pump. Each weight has an initial weight of 6 ounces.

KEY FEATURES AND BENEFITS:

• Two Assembly Methods: Offers two straightforward assembly methods, accommodating both new installations and existing systems without the need for rewiring.
• Reliable Pivot Point: Acts as a reliable pivot point for suspended float switches, ensuring they move freely and accurately with water level changes.
• Universal Compatibility: Versatile design is compatible with all cable sizes, providing a universal solution for various sump pump setups.
• Environmentally Safe Material: Constructed with environmentally safe, rock-filled material, containing no lead for responsible usage.
• Self-Adjusting Weight: Designed to release trapped air and take on water once submerged, increasing its effective weight and stability.

SPECIFICATIONS:

• Material: Polypropylene outer shell, rock-filled interior
• Weight (Individual, Dry): 6 ounces
• Cable Diameter Compatibility (Sliding Method): Up to 11 mm (7/16”)
• Installation: Button head cable tie (included) or slide-on
• Space Requirement: 3-5 inches between float switch and pump

HOW TO USE:

• For New Installations or Existing Cables (Method 1 - Using Cable Tie): Position the two-piece counterweight at the desired location on the float switch cable, ensuring it is within the 3-5 inch range above the pump.
• Wrap the two halves of the counterweight around the cable.
• Securely fasten the two halves together using the provided button head cable tie. Ensure the tie is snug but does not damage the cable.
• For Existing Cables (Method 2 - Sliding): If the end of your float switch cable is accessible, slide the two halves of the counterweight over the cable.
• Position the weight at the desired location (3-5 inches above the pump).
• Snap the two halves of the counterweight together around the cable.

BENEFITS OF USING THE SUMP ALARM 50-PK SINKWIRE 2-PIECE CABLE ORIENTATION WEIGHT (SA-CW-50):

• Ensures Reliable Float Switch Operation: By providing the correct orientation, the counterweight helps the float switch accurately detect water levels, leading to consistent and timely activation of your sump pump or alarm.
• Prevents Float Switch Malfunctions: Proper weighting reduces the chances of the float switch getting stuck, tangled, or failing to respond correctly to water level changes.
• Simplifies Installation: The two installation methods offer flexibility and ease of setup, even in existing sump pump systems without requiring any complicated rewiring.
• Promotes Longevity of Sump Pump System: By ensuring the float switch operates correctly, you can help prevent potential damage to your sump pump caused by improper cycling or failure to activate.
• Environmentally Conscious Design: The use of rock-filled material instead of lead makes this a safer and more environmentally friendly choice for your sump pump system.

FEATURES:

• Compact and Low Profile: Its small size is ideal for fitting within the confined space of a sump basin.
• Self-Adjusting Weight: Designed to increase in weight when submerged, providing optimal orientation force.
• Durable Polypropylene Construction: The outer shell is made from robust polypropylene for long-lasting performance in a wet environment.
• Included Cable Tie: Comes with a button head cable tie for immediate and secure installation.
