Liberty Pumps elv280s 1/2 Hp Cast Iron Sump Pump 115V

Product Description

The LIBERTY PUMPS elv280s is a 1/2 HP cast iron sump pump rated for 115-volt operation and equipped with the Oiltector control system. Designed for residential and light commercial sump applications, it removes groundwater and stormwater intrusion from basements and crawl spaces. The cast iron construction provides durability under continuous cycling conditions. The Oiltector control adds an oil-detection layer that shuts the pump down if oil contamination is sensed in the sump pit, helping protect against discharge of regulated fluids. Licensed plumbers and mechanical contractors are the typical installers for this type of equipment.

The elv280s suits residential basement sump pits and light commercial drainage applications where a reliable 1/2 HP submersible pump with built-in fluid-contamination protection is required. The Oiltector control makes this unit particularly well-suited for installations near fuel storage, vehicle lifts, or other environments where oil infiltration into the sump is a concern. It operates on standard 115-volt single-phase power, which is common in residential panel configurations.

Key Features

• 1/2 HP motor provides reliable head pressure for residential and light commercial sump applications
• Cast iron construction for long-term durability under high-cycle conditions
• Oiltector control system detects oil contamination and shuts down the pump to prevent regulated-fluid discharge
• 115-volt single-phase operation compatible with standard residential electrical service
• Submersible design suitable for installation directly in the sump pit

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or direct-install submersible sump pump for residential and light commercial sump pit applications requiring 115-volt single-phase power.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed plumber or mechanical contractor in accordance with local plumbing codes and the International Plumbing Code (IPC) where adopted. Disconnect and lock out electrical power at the panel before handling the pump or float switch wiring. Verify sump pit diameter and discharge pipe sizing are compatible before lowering the unit into the pit. Do not run the pump dry, and confirm check valve placement on the discharge line prior to energizing.
