Fuel level sensors


Fuel level sensor DUT-E

Purpose
Fuel level sensor DUT-E is designed for precision fuel level measurement in tanks of vehicles, trucks, tractors, road-building machinery, fixed installations. DUT-E is used as a standard fuel level sensor or as an additional sensor to be used with AVL, FMS or vehicle tracking systems.

Mounting
DUT-E has the standard SAE 5 bolted flange and is mounted in the standard hole of the fuel level sensor or the special hole in the vehicle fuel tank.

Advantages
  • Electrical noniteraction with tank body;
  • Allows cutting “at place” up to 30% of its initial length without recalibration;
  • Strong cast metal body;
  • Protection of fuel level sensor output from short circuit;
  • Protection from voltage overload (up to 100 V);
  • Sensors are delivered calibrated, i.e. sensors are interchangeable and there is no necessity to make tank normalization when you replace DUT-E sensor;
  • Stable and more exact output signal;
  • New bayonet lock and small overall dimensions of the outside sensor part;
  • Possibility of sealing.

Fuel volume control in vehicle tracking systems
Fuel level sensor DUT-E passes the information on raising or lowering the level of fuel in tank to tracking device. Vehicle tracking system with the help of GPS determines the location and time. The user of a system receives information about changes in fuel level in the form of parameters or diagrams.
