1. Compatibility

• Gauges: Compatible with fuel gauges designed for a 90-4 Ohm resistance range, commonly found in automotive and marine applications.
• Applications: It can be used in a wide variety of applications, such as:
• Automobiles and trucks
• Marine vessels
• Industrial machinery and generators
• Fuel Types: Typically compatible with gasoline, diesel, and biofuels, depending on the sensor material.

2. Installation

• Contactless Design: This type of sensor doesn’t have mechanical moving parts inside the tank, making it more resistant to wear and tear over time.
• Mounting: Similar to traditional sensors, it is installed within the fuel tank. Contactless designs may require specific mounting to avoid interference with other components in the tank.
• Wiring: Electrical connections link the sensor to the fuel gauge. It’s important to ensure that the wiring is protected, especially in harsh environments like marine or industrial applications.
• Calibration: Calibration ensures the sensor provides accurate readings across the range of fuel levels, from empty (90 Ohm) to full (4 Ohm).

3. Specifications

• Length: 390mm, suited for smaller to mid-sized fuel tanks.
• Resistance Range: 90-4 Ohm (empty to full).
• Resistance Range: 0-180 Ohm (empty to full).
• Technology: The contactless design means it uses capacitive or ultrasonic technology to detect fuel levels, which increases reliability and reduces maintenance needs.
• Material: Constructed from durable, corrosion-resistant materials suitable for use with various fuel types.
• Operating Temperature: Generally operates within a wide range, such as -40°C to +85°C, depending on the specific model.

4. Benefits

Durability: With no mechanical parts in direct contact with fuel, it offers increased longevity and fewer chances of malfunction.
