Description

OVERVIEW

These fuel level sending units use the standard SAE 5-bolt mounting pattern, extensively used with all Radium fuel cell surge tanks. Suitable for use with gasoline, diesel, water, and all alcohol based fuels including methanol, ethanol, E85, etc. Full stainless steel sealed construction with magnetic float.


NOTES

  • All level senders are 0 ohms empty to 90 ohms full (common with many aftermarket gauges.)
  • Radium does not sell fuel level gauges, but a popular option is this Autometer Fuel Level Gauge
  • To test the sender, measure the resistance between the two wires while tipping the sender to allow the float to move
  • If purchased with a Radium FCST or FCST-X, the sender will come pre-installed
  • If the output of this sender is not compatible with your OEM fuel gauge, consider a resistance signal converter, FOUND HERE. (Radium Engineering does not have experience with this product, contact Classic Instruments for more information)
  • Shrouded senders (20-0847-XXX) are only compatible with newer Radium FCSTs (20-099X-XX) and FCST-Xs (20-199X-XX). Because the shroud is 40mm in diameter, the thru hole must be at least this size
  • For previous Radium 20-049X-XX and 20-069X-XX FCST versions, the non-shrouded Radium 20-0747-XXX must be used
  • Non-shrouded Radium 20-0747-203 (discontinued) and 20-0747-297 (while supplies last) level senders are compatible with all Radium FCST and FCST-X part numbers
