Overview
Limited clearance inside a fuel tank can rule out a conventional swing-arm sender. The VDO 450mm Reed Switch Fuel Sender offers a tubular alternative for those installations, helping reduce gauge pointer movement caused by fuel sloshing.
Key features
- A tubular design suits installations without enough room for a conventional swing arm.
- The tube dampens the effects of fuel slosh to help steady the gauge pointer.
- A standard SAE five-hole flange provides a top-mounted installation.
- Compatibility with most standard marine fuel gauges supports use in marine fuel-level systems.
- Supplied mounting hardware helps prepare the sender for installation.
