VDO Fuel Level Float Arm Sender Unit For VDO Gauge

The VDO Float Arm Sender Unit is used to provide accurate fuel level readings by converting float arm movement into variable electrical resistance. It works with gauges that use a 3 ohm empty to 180 ohm full resistance scale and suits petrol or diesel applications, including E10 fuel.Here are the key technical features and how they benefit you in practice:Adjustable Float Arm Length: Designed to suit tank depths from 150 mm to 600 mm, this adjustable arm mechanism allows you to tailor the float length to your tank setup, ensuring accurate readings across a wide range of fuel tank sizes.SAE 5-Bolt Flange Fitting: The 54 mm PCD SAE standard 5-bolt flange allows straightforward installation into compatible tanks, providing a secure and leak-resistant seal that simplifies integration with existing mounting points.3-180 Ohm Output Range: The sender unit operates within a 3 ohm (empty) to 180 ohm (full) resistance range, allowing reliable compatibility with VDO gauges and others that match this standard, resulting in consistent and dependable level indication.Fuel-Resistant Construction: Built using fuel-resistant plastics, the sender withstands long-term exposure to petrol and diesel, including ethanol-blended fuels like E10, helping maintain sensor integrity and measurement accuracy over time.Includes Mounting Hardware: Supplied with appropriate fasteners for the SAE 5-bolt flange, the sender is ready to fit straight out of the box, helping you complete installation efficiently without needing to source additional parts.This sender unit helps you track fuel levels precisely by providing stable electrical readings to your gauge. Whether you're setting up a custom tank or replacing a worn sensor, this is a reliable solution that supports a wide range of depths and fuel types. It's a smart choice to add to your fuel system setup, offering dependable performance and easy installation.
