USER GUIDE
Congratulations on your purchase of a Champion Pump. With proper care and by following a few simple guidelines, your
pump will give you many years of dependable service.
USE & CARE The Champion Effluent & Sewage pumps are designed to handle routine, domestic effluent & sewage.
Solid waste materials should be thrown in the trash. While your station is capable of accepting and pumping a wide range
of materials, regulatory agencies advise that the following items should not be introduced into any sewer either directly or
through a kitchen waste disposal: glass; metal; diapers; socks, rags or cloth; plastic objects (e.g., toys, utensils, etc.)
sanitary napkins or tampons.
In addition you must never introduce into any sewer: Explosives; flammable material; lubricating oil and or grease;
strong chemicals; gasoline.
POWER FAILURE This pump cannot dispose of wastewater or provide an alarm signal without electrical power. If
electrical power service is interrupted, keep water usage to a minimum.
WARRANTY Your pump is furnished with a warranty against defects in material or workmanship. A properly completed
Start-Up/Warranty Registration form must be on file at the Champion factory in order to activate your warranty. In
addition, your pump must be installed in accordance with the installation instructions. If you have a claim under the
provisions of the warranty, contact your installer.
For future reference, record the following information:
Pump Model #____________________Pump Serial # ______________________
Installer_________________________Installer Phone #____________________ Date
Installed____________________
RECEIVING / UNPACKING Upon receiving the pump, it should be inspected for damage or shortages. If damage has
occurred, file a claim immediately with the company that delivered the pump. Unpack pump and record pump serial and
model number before installing. If the manual is removed from the packaging, do not lose or misplace.
SHORT TERM STORAGE For best results, pumps can be retained in storage, as factory assembled, in a dry atmosphere
with constant temperatures for up to six (6) Months.
LONG TERM STORAGE Any length of time exceeding six (6) months, but not more than twenty-four (24) months. The
units should be stored in a temperature controlled area, a roofed over walled enclosure that provides protection from the
elements (rain, snow, wind-blown dust, etc.), and whose temperature can be maintained between +40 deg. F and +120
deg.F. If extended high humidity is expected to be a problem, all exposed parts should be inspected before storage and all
surfaces that have the paint scratched, damaged, or worn should be recoated with an air dry enamel paint. All surfaces
should then be sprayed with a rust-inhibiting oil. Pump should be stored in its original shipping container. On initial start
up, rotate shaft by hand to assure seal and motor rotate freely.

USER GUIDE
INSTALLATION Assemble discharge piping or hose assembly to the pump. Discharge piping should be as short as
possible. Both a check valve and a shut off valve are required for each pump being used. The check valve is used to
prevent backflow into the sump. Excessive backflow can cause flooding and /or damage to the pump. The shut-off valve
is used to stop system flow during pump or check valve servicing. If pump is installed with a discharge hose rather than a
moveable fitting assembly, make sure the discharge pipe has a 1/8” hole approximately 5” from the end nearest the volute
and oriented towards the pump body.
ELECTRICAL CONNECTIONS
A 25-30 AMP breaker is recommended for 1/2HP 115V and 2HP 230V Single phase models. 20 AMP for all others.

The quick connect cord assembly mounted to the pump must not be modified in any way except for shortening to a
specific application. Any supply cables connections between the pump and the control panel must be made in accordance
with the National Electric Code or the Canadian Electric Code and all applicable state, province and local electric codes.
It is recommended that a junction box, be mounted outside the sump or be of at least Nema 4 (EEMAC-4) construction if
located within the wet well. The ground wire of the pump is marked with an “E” for earth ground and is a blue/green
color. If additional cord is required, consult a qualified electrician for proper wire size. DO NOT USE THE POWER
OR CONTROL CABLES TO LIFT PUMP!
On single phase models, the type of in-winding overload protector used is referred to as an inherent overheating
protector and operates on the combined effect of temperature and current. This means that the overload protector will
trip out and shut the pump off if the winding becomes too hot, or the load current passing through them becomes too
high. It will then automatically reset and start the pump up after the motor cools to a safe temperature. All three phase
models are not automatically protected. They do have on winding thermal sensors accessed through the sensor cord
(black and green wires) that need to be connected to an approved protection and alarm circuit in the control panel for
winding thermal protection. Thermal protection shall not be used as a motor overload device. A separate motor
overload device must be provided in accordance with NEC Codes. In the event of an overload, the source of this
condition should be determined and rectified immediately. DO NOT LET THE PUMP CONTINUE TO RUN IF AN
OVERLOAD CONDITION OCCURS.
OPTIONAL MOISTURE SENSOR A detector is installed in the pump seal chamber which will detect any moisture
present. It is recommended that this detector (Black & White wires) be connected in series to an alarm device or the
motor starter coil to alert the operator that a moisture detect has occurred. In the event of a moisture detect, check the
individual moisture sensor probe leads for continuity and the junction box/control box for moisture content. This
situation may induce a false signal in the moisture detecting circuit. Normal resistance between leads is 33,000 OHMS
indicating normal connection. When the resistance drops well below 33,000 OHMS, then moisture is present and the
pump seals should be serviced. If none of the above tests prove conclusive, the pump(s) should be pulled and the source
of the failure identified and repaired. IF A MOISTURE DETECT HAS OCCURRED, SCHEDULE
MAINTENANCE AS SOON AS POSSIBLE.
THREE PHASE INSTALLATION: Check proper rotation. Improper motor rotation can result in poor pump
performance and pump failure. The power leads are the red, black and white wires. There should be approximately an
equal ohm resistance between these leads. The blue-green color lead is the ground wire. Once the leads are connected to
the power terminals then you are ready to check the rotation. Momentarily apply power to the pump with it laying on its
side and impeller clear from obstruction. Observe “kickback” as it should always be in counter-clockwise direction as
viewed from top of the motor housing or opposite to impeller rotation. If rotation is incorrect when power is supplied,
then reverse two of the leads at the power terminal and try again. This should correct the rotation. Once pump is in
operation the amperage of each leg of the power connection should be checked and recorded on the start up sheet. They
should be close to the same value for each leg (within 5% of the average leg to leg value). If they are not, try advancing
the connections to balance the readings, but do not lose proper rotation.

USER GUIDE
SERVICE Lubrication: Anytime the pump is removed from operation, the cooling oil in the motor housing should
be checked visually for oil level and contamination.
Checking Oil: To check oil in the motor housing, set pump upright. Remove plug from motor housing. With a
flashlight, visually inspect the oil in the motor housing to make sure it is clean and clear, light amber in color
and free from suspended particles. Milky white oil indicates the presence of water. Oil level should be just
above the motor when pump is in the vertical position.
Testing Oil: Place pump on it’s side, remove plug from motor housing and drain oil into a clean, dry container.
Check oil for contamination using an oil tester with a range to 30 Kilovolts breakdown. If oil is found to be clean
and uncontaminated (measuring above 15KV. Breakdown), refill the motor housing. (See Replacing Oil below) If
oil is found to be dirty or contaminated, the pump must be carefully inspected for leaks at the shaft seals, cord
assemblies, O-rings, and plugs before refilling with oil. To locate the leak, perform a pressure test. After leak is
repaired, dispose of old oil properly, and refill with new oil.
Replacing Motor Housing Oil: Drain all oil from motor housing and dispose of properly per local and
environmental standards. Set unit upright and refill with new cooling oil. Fill to just above motor (see Table
2, Item #16) as an air space must remain in the top of the motor housing to compensate for oil expansion.
Apply pipe thread compound to threads on plug and insert and tighten into housing.
Replacing Seal Chamber Oil: Drain all oil from seal chamber and dispose of properly per local and
environmental standards. Set unit on its side, with plug upward, and refill with new oil. (approximately 13oz)
Apply pipe thread compound to threads on plug and insert and tighten into housing.
WARNING! Do not overfill oil. Over filling of oil can create excessive and dangerous hydraulic pressure which
can destroy the pump and create a hazard. Overfilling oil voids warranty.
DIELECTRIC COOLING OIL : BP – Enerpar SE100: Conoco – Pale Paraffin 22; Mobile – D.T.E. Oil Light;
G&G Oil – Circulating 22; Imperial Oil – Voltesso-35; Shell Canada – Transformer-10; Texaco – Diala-oil-AX;
Woxo – Premium 100, Shell 2210.
Pressure Test for pumps that have been disassembled.: If the pump has been disassembled, the oil should be
drained before a pressure test. Remove plug from motor housing. Apply pipe sealant to a pressure gauge
assembly and tighten into hole. Pressurize motor housing to 10 P.S.I. Use soap solution around the sealed areas
and inspect joints for “air bubbles”. If, after five minutes, the pressure is holding constant, and no signs of leaks
are observed, slowly bleed the pressure and remove the gauge assembly. Replace oil. If the pressure does not
hold, then the leak must be located and repaired.
CAUTION! Pressure builds up extremely fast. Too much pressure will damage seal.
Impeller face Clearance: Proper Face clearance should come correctly preset from then factory. However, if the
pump is serviced or not performing correctly, the face clearance should be checked. To obtain proper pumping
performance the face clearance between the impeller (item 37) and the volute (item 39) should not exceed .025”.
Shim gaskets (item 38) can be added or removed to adjust the face clearance. The gasket is approximately .01”
thick.

TROUBLE SHOOTING
CAUTION! Always disconnect the pump from the electrical power source before handling.
If the system fails to operate properly, carefully read instructions and perform maintenance recommendations.
If operating problems persist, the following chart may be of assistance in identifying and correcting them:
MATCH "CAUSE" NUMBER WITH CORRELATING "CORRECTION" NUMBER.
NOTE: Not all problems and corrections will apply to each pump model.
PROBLEM

CAUSE

CORRECTION

Pump will not run.

1. Poor electrical connection, blown fuse,
tripped breaker or other interruption of
power, improper power supply.
2. Motor or switch inoperative (to isolate
cause, go to manual operation of pump).
2a. Float movement restricted.
2b. Switch will not activate pump or is
defective
3. Insufficient liquid level.

1. Check all electrical connections for security. Have
electrician measure current in motor leads. If current is
within +or-20% of locked rotor amps, impeller is probably
locked. If current is 0, overload may be tripped. Remove
power, allow pump to cool, then re-check current.

Pump will not turn off.

2a. Float movement restricted.
2b. Switch will not activate pump or is
defective
4. Excessive inflow or pump not properly
sized for application.
9. Pump may be air locked.
14. H-O-A switch on panel is in "Hand"
position.

2a. Reposition pump or clean basin as required to
provide adequate clearance for float.
2b. Disconnect level control. Set ohmmeter for a low
range, such as 100 ohms full scale and connect to level
control manually and check to see that ohmmeter shows
zero ohms for closed switch and full scale for open
switch. (Float Switch)
3. Make sure liquid level is at least equal to suggested
turn-on point.
4. Re-check all sizing calculations to determine proper
pump size.
