Motors.
Pump Rotation.
Wiring must be done in a manner that the full Motor
nameplate v/- 10% is available at the Motor
terminals during start-up. In the case of 208 volt 3
phase electrics, the Unit must be 200 volts.
For single phase Motors, the voltage variance is 230
volts +/- 10%. A 208 volt power supply requires a
transformer to increase the voltage to 230 volts.
Use of an incorrect Motor for your particular
building service will result in premature Motor
failure, something not covered by the
Champion or Motor manufacturers Warranty.
The Warranty that exists on the Electric Motor is that of
the original Motor manufacturer. In the event of a Motor
failure, contact your Champion Distributor or Service
Centre for the location of the nearest authorized Motor
Service Centre.
Why Hire a Licensed Electrician?
To ensure that your new Champion Unit works as
designed and required, you must ensure that it is
correctly wired to your building service. It is the
responsibility of your Licensed Electrician to ensure
that:
The Unit you purchased is suitable for your
particular buildings electrical service.
Protective devices such as Magnetic Starters,
Fused Disconnects, etc have been sized and
installed correctly.
Any electrical accessories purchased with your
Compressor have been installed and wired
correctly.
The wiring of the Unit meets with all applicable
codes and regulations.
When completed, the Unit works in both a safe
and correct manner.
Failure of the Compressor Unit due to an incorrect
electrical installation is not covered by the
manufacturers warranty.
The Compressor is to be wired in a manner that the
rotation of the Pumps Flywheel causes the air to be
blown from the Beltguard forward over the Pump. This
coupled with the unobstructed area behind the
Beltguard of 18” (0.5 m) minimum, allows the Pump to
cool properly.
When facing the Compressor
(as shown at right), the
Flywheel must rotate in a
clockwise direction.
