Automatic Fill/Low Water Heat Protection
Dual Float Switches
Each tank contains a dual float switch (see Fig.8). The device consists
of an angled stem containing two reed switches. Two stainless steel
ball floats, containing magnets, slide over the stem and are free to move
up and down. When the float moves on the stem, it opens and closes the
associated reed switch inside the stem. The reed switches control relays.
The relays control the automatic fill and heat for different parts of the
machine. The float switch(es) and their relay(s) operate on a 120V circuit.
Circuit Explanation
Refer to the electrical schematic on your machine for a detailed
description of the individual float(s), relay(s) and wiring.
ELECTRICAL SERVICE
Bottom Float and Reed Switch
• The bottom float controls the heat.
• When the bottom float is down, the bottom reed switch contacts are open.
• When the bottom float is up, the bottom reed switch contacts are closed.

Dual Float Switch
Top Float and Reed Switch
• The top float controls a fill valve, which controls the water level.
• When the top float is down, the top reed switch contacts are open.
• When the top float is up, the top reed switch contacts are closed.
Initial Fill
• When the tank is completely empty, both floats are down and their reed switch contacts
are open.
• The control relay for the float switch is de-energized.
• The fill valve for the tank is energized and the tank begins to fill with water.
• As the water level in the tank rises, the bottom float begins to move up.
• When the bottom float is completely up, its reed switch contacts close.
• This prepares the heat circuit, but the heat DOES NOT energize at this time.
• The tank continues to fill until the top float is completely up.
• The top float’s reed switch contacts close. Its control relay energizes.
• The fill valve de-energizes.
• The heat circuit energizes through the contacts of the control relay.
During Normal Operation
• If the water level in a tank falls below the level of the top float, the top float moves down
and its reed switch contacts open.
• When the water level falls below the level of the bottom float, the bottom float moves
down and its reed switch opens.
• The control relay de-energizes. The fill and rinse valve energizes and refills the tank.
• The heat circuit will de-energize until the water level in the tank raises the top float
again.
• The bottom float keeps the heat circuit ready as long as the water level is above the level
of the bottom float.

Step 1. Hold the element assembly with the calrod coils facing toward you.
Step 2. Match your element coils to Configuration A or B
Step 3. Rotate your element coils to match the correct configuration.
Step 4. Flip the element over and match your element to the correct terminal configuration.
Step 5. Install the terminal jumpers according to the illustrations for your voltage requirement.
Step 6. Install the element and make your line connections 1L1, 1L2 or 1L3 per the
illustration.
Step 7. If installing a booster element (that requires the limiting thermostat), the limiting
thermostat should be inserted into the center of element. Thermostat should bottom
out in the tube approximately 12" deep. The exposed capillary leads should be routed
under the booster cover and fastened to the stud in the upper right side of the booster
can with the clip and nut. See Figure 43 Electric Booster in Replacement Parts section.

Electric Booster Heater- Element Installation
Champion built-in boosters are constructed of stainless steel and have locations for three
electric booster heater elements. There are three booster configurations for the rack conveyor models:
40°F/22°C rise booster (minimum of 140°F/60°C incoming water)
60°F/34°C rise booster (minimum of 120°F/49°C to 140°F/60° incoming water)
70°F/39°C rise booster (minimum of 110°F/43°C incoming water)
The canisters and total Kw ratings of the booster assemblies are determined by the model
number of the machine and the minimum temperature of the incoming water supply that the
end user is able to supply to the machine. Machines can be supplied with 40°F/22°C rise
booster or 60°F/34°C rise booster which use only one canister (nested boosted) with separate electrical connections. The 70°F/39°C rise models use two canisters in the booster
assemblies, these also have separate electrical connections.
Water Saver (44 WS and 66 WS PW) models are supplied in only 40°F/22°C or 70°/39°c
rise booster assemblies. These are single canister units in either option and are not separate
electrical connections.

Troubleshooting
Motor will not run
1.Check incoming power to control cabinet.
2.Check for tripped manual motor starter (overload) in control cabinet.
(Refer to Motor Overload service section for proper settings).
3.Check power at motor contactor.
Motor runs hot and trips motor star ter overload
1. Check for proper voltage between L1-L2 or (L1-l2, L2-L3, L1-L3 for 3 phase).
2. Check FLA on motor leads L1, L2, (also L3 for 3 phase) using amp tester.
(Motor full load amp (FLA) ratings are stamped on motor nameplate).
Motor Replacement
1.Disconnect the power to the machine.
2.Disconnect the wires to the motor junction box.
3. Make note of the motor connections in order to phase the replacement correctly.
4.Install the new motor and check for proper rotation.
(Proper rotation is clockwise looking from at the rear of the motor).
5. Motor rotation can be reversed by switching L1 and L2 on three phase motors.
Single phase motor rotation cannot be reversed.
