Capacitive Fuel Level Sensor: Performance and System Approach

Recent advances in materials have made it possible to develop a capacitive measurement fuel level sensor compatible with the new oxygenated fuels and competitive with present products. Not only does this design bring higher levels in both the reliability and the quality of the fuel level measurement, but it also presents several characteristics that allow to offer extra functions at a low marginal cost. A presentation will be made of the product and the results of its evaluation in various environment conditions. Several different cases of use will be discussed.
