Its unique design features a floatless, tubular construction that eliminates the common issues associated with conventional swing-arm fuel senders, such as erratic readings caused by fuel slosh or wear over time. This makes it an excellent choice for applications with tight clearance spaces where traditional sensors may not fit. The stainless steel body ensures durability and resistance to harsh marine environments, while the ethanol-resistant Viton gasket provides a secure, leak-proof seal that withstands fuel additives and corrosive elements.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis fuel sender is designed to fit tanks with a depth of approximately 7.2 inches (180mm) and utilizes a standard SAE 5-hole mounting flange for straightforward installation. It features insulated 1\/4-inch spade connectors for reliable electrical connections and is compatible with most standard marine fuel gauges. The sensor's ground connection is floating, and it operates within a resistance range of 240-33 Ohms, allowing accurate fuel level readings across a broad spectrum. Its top-mounted design and sealed construction prevent side-to-side movement and wear, ensuring long-lasting performance with minimal maintenance. This unit is sold individually, providing a cost-effective, high-quality option for marine fuel measurement needs.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003ePlease note that this product may contain chemicals such as lead, which are recognized by California as hazardous.
