MODEL S1503
Star Model S1503 is a high capacity, high efficiency water
powered back-up system. With no electricity or batteries
required, the S1503 takes over seamlessly when your primary
sump system fails.
The S1503 comes fully assembled for fast, easy and troublefree installation. The small footprint allows for installation
in even the smallest sump pits. With superior performance
and discharge capacity, it uses less water and costs less to
operate.
The S1503, installed as a back-up system, does not use any
water until the primary system malfunctions or in the case of
power failure. Water flow is equivalent to a normal faucet and
is required only when the S1503 is operating. Not intended
for use as a primary water removal unit.
