KUS USA Fuel & Water Level Sensor

The SSS Fuel & Water Level Sensor is a widely used product in various fuel, water, or chemical tank applications. With a simple yet reliable structure, the sensor is available in standard lengths starting from 4 inches, with increments of half an inch. The sensor utilizes reed switch technology, offering several advantages over the traditional thick-film swing arm type level sender.

The reed switch type level sender provides non-contact sensing technology, resulting in no wear attenuation, high repeatability, good shock resistance, and minimal potential mechanical failures. This makes it a more durable and reliable option compared to the swing arm type.

The electric liquid level sending units are widely used in marine, on-road, off-road, generator set, and industrial applications. They employ reed switch and magnetic field technology to provide a 240-30 ohm (Empty - Full) standard American output. The output is non-linear, with 18-21 mm per step, and the units are designed to operate on 12V/24V systems, within a temperature range of -40°F to +185°F (-40°C to +85°C).

The sensor is constructed using SUS stainless steel, ensuring durability and corrosion resistance. It is available in lengths ranging from 5 to 24 inches and features a SAE 5 hole mounting pattern, which is not equidistant. This asymmetrical screw hole pattern ensures proper alignment of the gasket during installation.

The wire terminal connection includes a pink wire for ground and a black wire for the signal output. When determining the proper length of the sender, it is crucial to maintain a minimum 1-inch clearance between the tank bottom and the float retaining collar.

The product package includes the sending unit, an NBR mounting gasket, five 10-24 hex screws, and an installation instruction manual. The sensor is suitable for use in diesel, fuel, gasoline, and water applications, as well as for OEM replacement purposes.

In summary, the SSS Fuel & Water Level Sensor is a reliable and versatile product that offers several advantages over traditional level sensing technologies. Its non-contact sensing, high repeatability, and durable construction make it a popular choice for a wide range of liquid level monitoring applications.
