Introduction to Fuel Level Sensor |
The Fuel Level Sensor turns the change of the sensor shell and sensor capacitance between electrodes because of the oil in the container into a current change to detects the location (height) of oil in a container.

Steps of using Fuel Level Sensor |
The Fuel Level Sensor has three important steps.Firstly,drill the hole in the middle of the fuel tank. Secondly,cut off fuel level sensor after measuring fuel tank height .Then,calibrate the fuel tank.Finally,fix flange and fuel level sensor. |

Feature of Fuel Lever Sensor |
Wide Power Voltage Input:
DC: 4-70V, while DC: 4-36V is recommended to ensure the long term stability. |
Can be cut according to tank size:
It can be cut due to the fuel tank size & installation place in spot, the cut part’ length can not over one third of the fuel senor length (before cutting), and it need to be calibrated after cutting. |
Easy installation:
By adopting the unique flange, it just need to drill one hole in the fuel tank to finish the installation, the details is with reference to the installation instruction.
