VDO Reed Switch Fuel Sender - 400 MM

$52.99 USD $64.99

Product Description

The Reed Switch Fuel Sender - 400 MM revolutionizes fuel level measurement for marine applications, offering enhanced accuracy and durability compared to traditional float-based systems. Its innovative design minimizes erratic gauge movements, ensuring reliable fuel monitoring even in challenging marine environments.

Revolutionary Design

Unlike conventional fuel senders that rely on a rotating float arm and resistance cards, the Reed Switch Fuel Sender eliminates side-to-side motion. This floatless design reduces wear and tear, providing a longer lifespan and more consistent performance. The tubular construction acts as a dampener, effectively preventing gauge pointer fluctuations caused by fuel slosh, which is particularly beneficial in rough waters.

Benefits for Marine Applications

Designed specifically for marine and boating use, this fuel sender addresses common issues faced in tight spaces where traditional swing arms may not fit. Its top-mounted installation and standard SAE 5-hole mounting flange ensure easy integration with most marine fuel tanks and gauges. The stainless steel construction and ethanol-resistant Viton gasket offer superior resistance to corrosion and chemical exposure, making it ideal for harsh marine environments.
