Specifications
IMPORTANT Health & Safety
- This appliance should ONLY be fitted and serviced by a competent & qualified HVAC/R installer.
- This appliance must be provided with means for disconnection that is incorporated into the fixed wiring in accordance with the relevant local wiring regulations.
- If the supply cord is damaged, the pump should be replaced.
- This appliance is not intended for use by persons (including children) with reduced physical, sensory, or mental capabilities, or a lack of experience and knowledge, unless they have been given supervision or instruction concerning use of the appliance by a person responsible for their safety.
- THIS APPLIANCE MUST BE EARTHED.
- This pump is not intended for use inside air plenums.
IMPORTANT Product Safety
- This pump has been designed for the removal of pH 7 – 2.2 air conditioner/furnace condensate water ONLY.
- Confirm condensate production of the indoor evaporating coil is within the capacity of the condensate pump.
- Ensure the correct Amp fuse is installed.
- Following the installation of the pump, the tank should be filled with water until the motor runs. Pipes and connections should be checked for leaks, and the discharge of water should be checked. The operation of the safety switch should also be checked.
- Do not use these pumps in oily or very dusty environments.
- Install the hose and wiring in accordance with the manufacturer instructions. Do not use a discharge hose larger than 3/8”/10mm I.D.
- Inspect the pump, clean floats, and tank regularly, checking for correct operation.
- Do not operate this pump when any unapproved cleaning chemicals are present in the condensate drainage system. Operating the pump when unapproved or poorly mixed cleaning chemicals are present will result in permanent damage to the pump and void the warranty. Ensure all cleaning chemicals are thoroughly flushed out of the pump with clean water.
- After initial installation and/or maintenance, do not leave the site until the pump has been tested for correct operation.
- Check for any construction debris that has entered the evaporator coil and/or drain pan before initial activation of the pump – this will damage the pump permanently.
- NOISE: All PROSELECT pumps operate quietly; however, under certain conditions where an extremely low ambient noise level is present, the sound of their intermittent operation may still be perceived as noisy. Always confirm the acceptable noise level before installing any condensate pump in a bedroom or other noise-sensitive area.
Correct sequence of operation:
- The AC/Furnace unit drain pan fills with water, which flows into the pump’s tank.
- When the water lifts the float to the correct level, the pump will activate.
Fault Conditions: In the unlikely event of a pump failure, check the following:
- Power supply: Ensure power is supplied to the pump.
- Hi-level safety switch: Ensure the hi-level safety switch has not operated. If it has, check that the pump performance is suited to the incoming flow rate.
- Pump is loud: Pump fixing may be loose, or the connected cables and hoses may be vibrating against a hard surface.
- Outlet Pipe: Check pipe and outlet barb are not blocked with debris or kinked.
If these checks do not resolve the problem, please contact PROSELECT for further assistance: Tel: US Email: [email protected].
Installation
Furnace
This condensate pump is designed for condensate water up to 140ºF. When installing this pump with a high-efficiency condensing furnace or humidifier, please install a P-trap in the condensate drain line before the pump to help ensure correct operation.
Hi-Level Safety Switch
Furnace
- Shut off the electrical power supply at the fuse box before making any connections. All wiring must comply with local codes. Make sure that the line voltage corresponds to the voltage specified on the motor’s nameplate. For correct operation, ensure that the pump is connected to a constant power source (not an intermittent switching power source).
- The pump’s safety switch should be used on 24V Class II control circuits only. The Normally Closed (N.C.) safety switch has dry contacts and should be connected in series with the 24V thermostat circuit to shut off the system. Do not exceed 42V peak.
Service
Tank removal method
- Discharge barb removal
- Pull up the red retaining clip.

ProSelect PSCPV220WS Condensate Pump-FAQS
What does the ProSelect condensate pump do?
The ProSelect condensate pump removes excess water produced by HVAC systems such as air conditioners and furnaces. It safely pumps condensate away to prevent leaks, overflow, and water damage.
What makes the ProSelect PSCPV220WS different from standard condensate pumps?
This model features a built-in trap and filter that helps reduce biofilm buildup, along with a fan-assisted motor cooling system for reliable and efficient operation.
How does a condensate pump work?
Condensate collects in the pump’s reservoir. As the water level rises, a float switch activates the motor, pumping water through the discharge line until the level drops.
How can I tell if my condensate pump is working properly?
You can test it by lifting the test tab or float switch. If the motor turns on and pumps water out, the pump is functioning correctly.
Should a condensate pump always contain water?
No. The pump should only hold water temporarily. A constantly full or overflowing reservoir usually indicates a clog, stuck float, or pump malfunction.
Should a condensate pump run continuously?
No. Condensate pumps are designed to run intermittently. Continuous operation may point to a blocked discharge line or a faulty float switch.
What should I do if the pump runs but does not remove water?
Check for a blocked discharge pipe, inspect the float switch, and clean the reservoir. Persistent issues may require pump replacement.
Can the reservoir be removed for maintenance?
Yes. The reservoir is easily removable, allowing routine cleaning and servicing without uninstalling the pump.
Does the ProSelect PSCPV220WS require regular cleaning?
Yes. Periodic cleaning helps prevent algae, mold, and sludge buildup, ensuring smooth operation and extending the pump’s lifespan.
