Fuel Level Sensor 0–190 Ω 450 mm 18" Float Sensor IP67 for Monitoring Fuel, Oil and Liquids in Vehicle Tanks
This fuel level sensor is designed for monitoring the amount of liquid inside the tank. Measurement is carried out using a float mechanism that generates a resistance signal 0–190 Ω. This range is a commonly used standard for many fuel level indicators, making the sensor compatible with various measuring devices.
The measuring rod has a length of 450 mm (18"), which corresponds to the recommended tank height of approximately 460 to 475 mm. This size is suitable for deeper tanks used in applications such as marine systems, commercial vehicles, or other technical equipment.
The device operates with a power supply of 9–32 V DC, allowing it to be connected to standard electrical systems in vehicles and technical equipment. The maximum operating current reaches ≤60 mA, which is suitable for integration into various measuring systems.
The sensor is mounted using a flange with five mounting holes. Installation is carried out using the included M5 screws and a gasket with a thickness of 2 mm. The gasket helps to ensure a seal between the tank and the sensor, reducing the risk of liquid leakage.
The sensor is equipped with IP67 protection, which provides protection against dust and resistance to temporary immersion in water. This makes it suitable for use in environments with higher humidity or in applications where contact with water may occur. The measurement resolution of 21 mm allows for monitoring changes in liquid level within the tank.
