Why Choose the Reed Switch Fuel Sender - 270 MM?

Traditional fuel senders with rotating float arms and resistance cards can cause erratic gauge movements, especially in turbulent waters. The Reed Switch Fuel Sender eliminates these issues with its innovative floatless design, providing a smooth and consistent gauge reading. The tubular design acts as a dampener, minimizing the impact of fuel slosh and ensuring that the gauge pointer remains steady. Additionally, the absence of moving parts reduces wear and tear, offering a maintenance-free solution that stands up to the rigors of marine use.

Installation and Compatibility

Installing the Reed Switch Fuel Sender - 270 MM is straightforward and hassle-free. It features a top-mounted design that fits seamlessly into your marine fuel tank without the clearance issues associated with conventional swing arm senders. The included neoprene gasket and mounting hardware ensure a secure and leak-proof installation. Compatible with most standard marine fuel gauges, it allows for easy integration into your existing fuel monitoring system.
