FAQ

Q: What is the maximum electrical load supported by the manifold?
- A: The maximum electrical load supported is 1 amp per connection port.
Q: How do I know if a float switch is in a normally open or normally closed state?
- A: A blue-colored cap indicates a normally open (high level) operation where the control switch turns on (closes) when the switch tips above horizontal. A red-colored cap indicates a normally closed (low level) operation where the control switch turns on (closes) when the switch drops below horizontal.

INTRODUCTION

The EZconnex® float switch connection system is a revolutionary new way to install float switches in a wet well for level control applications. It includes an electrical wiring manifold with three quick release float switch connection ports, mounting bracket and hardware. Installation is as easy as 1, 2, 3…Simply install the manifold, plug in the quick connect floats, and wire the manifold cable to the control panel.

A single 6 conductor direct burial cable has Red-Blue-Yellow wire pairs that match the R-B-Y imprint on the manifold housing for easy identification and field wiring. The color-coded cable makes for a quick, easy installation. The quick release float switch connections and mounting bracket allow for easy maintenance and replacement of floats.

The EZconnex® system can be used with 1, 2, or 3 float switches. Each float switch includes a protective rubber boot that provides a dual seal design for an extra layer of protection to keep connections clean and dry. A range of wide-angle and narrow-angle float switch options are available with quick release connection to suit application needs (sold separately). Sealing plugs are available for unused manifold ports (sold separately).

NOTE: Do not install manifold with open port(s).
