Fluid-trac® Fuel Gauge Applications

 

Non-contact Fluid-trac® Two Wire Fluid Level Sensor accepts either a 12V or 24V analog fuel gauge to replace 33 to 240 ohm resistive float senders, reed-switch tube sensors, and capacitive tube senders.

Traditional float senders consist of a float attached to an actuating arm with a variable resistor mounted at the end of the rod. The resistive float sender's wiper slides across a resistive strip that can wear out over time which may result in intermittent or even a complete loss of the signal to the fuel gauge. These devices tend to be inaccurate, showing empty even though there are gallons left in the tank and displaying full for extended periods after a fill up. Float senders also do not work well in irregular shaped fuel tanks or mobile tanks.

Fluidtrac two wire sensors for fuel level measurements

WHY CHOOSE A FLUIDTRAC

FOR FUEL LEVEL MEASUERMENT?

  • More accurate (1/8th inch distance) than resistive float senders, reed switch tube sensors and capacitive tube senders.
  • Mounts on top of fuel tank in same opening as the resistive float sender
  • The fluid level sensor is more robust and easier to install with no moving parts
  • Non-contact - no float arm inside tank and no parts to wear out
  • Programmed with strapping table to take into account the unique shape of the fuel tank
  • Digital filtering on the fluid level sensor eliminates errors due to fluids sloshing in mobile tanks or fluid agitation in stationary containers.
