Product Description
Reliable Float Switch Mounting for Wastewater & Pump Systems
The SJE Stainless Steel Four-Float Bracket is designed to securely mount and organize float switches in pump control systems. It’s commonly used in sewage lift stations, sump pits, and wastewater systems where accurate float positioning is critical for reliable operation.
By keeping float switches properly spaced and supported, this bracket helps prevent tangling, reduces cable strain, and ensures consistent pump performance. Whether you’re installing a new system or upgrading an existing setup, this float switch bracket provides a clean, dependable solution.
What Does a Float Switch Bracket Do?
A float switch bracket provides a fixed mounting point for multiple float switches inside a tank or wet well. Instead of letting floats hang freely and potentially tangle, the bracket keeps them organized and positioned correctly.
This ensures:
Accurate liquid level detection
Proper pump activation and shutoff
Reduced risk of system failure or short cycling
SJE Four-Float Bracket Key Features & Benefits
Supports Up to Four Float Switches
Designed for multi-stage pump control systems, this bracket can hold up to four float switches. This allows you to manage pump on/off cycles, lag pumps, and high-level alarms within a single, organized setup.
Corrosion-Resistant Stainless Steel Construction
Made from 300 series stainless steel, this float switch mounting bracket is built to withstand harsh environments, including sewage, wastewater, and industrial applications.
Built-In Cord Strain Relief Connectors
Includes four UL-recognized strain relief connectors to protect cables from wear and damage. This helps extend the lifespan of your float switches and ensures reliable long-term operation.
Flexible Mounting Options
Install directly onto the tank wall, or use the included mounting device to create additional offset. This flexibility allows for better float movement and improved system performance.
Compatible with Standard Float Switch Cables
Designed to accommodate SJOW and SJTW cords (18/2, 18/3, 16/2, 16/3), making it compatible with most common float switches used in pump control systems.
Common Applications
This float switch bracket is widely used in:
Sewage lift stations
Wastewater treatment systems
Sump pump systems
Septic systems
Industrial pump control setups
Anywhere multiple float switches need to be securely mounted and properly spaced, this bracket provides a reliable solution.
Why Proper Float Switch Mounting Matters
Incorrect float placement can lead to serious system issues, including pump short cycling, inaccurate level control, or even overflow conditions.
Using a dedicated float switch mounting bracket helps:
Ensure consistent float movement
Maintain accurate activation levels
Prevent cable tangling and interference
Improve overall system reliability
For any wastewater or pump control system, proper float positioning is essential, and this bracket makes it easy to get it right.
Installation Overview
Mount the bracket to the tank wall using appropriate hardware
Attach float switch cables using the included strain relief connectors
