8. Installation
8.1 Preparation of fuel tank for sensor’s installation
The sensor is installed
in the center
of the fuel tank, as shown on Pic 8.1.
Only in this case
, when vehicle is inclined, during acceleration or deceleration the fuel level at
the measuring point is the least volatile for fluctuations. The measuring probe should be set
vertically down
. Improper installation of the probe may be the reason of accuracy loss in
determining of fuel amount.
If the top of tank is difficult to access, it is necessary to remove the tank from the vehicle for
proper installation of the sensor.
.
Pic. 8.1 Proper position of sensor on fuel tank
It is necessary to clean the fuel tank in the place of sensor’s installation.
!
WARNING!
Before sensor’s installation on the tank, firstly you should fill
it with water or drain fuel and oil lubricants and clean the tank to the
complete removal of flammable liquids and vapors.
To ensure proper position of the sensor cable entry of the sensor and preparation of making the
procedure of sealing, we recommend following steps:
Determine the optimal orientation of the sensor. Cable entry of the sensor and the direction
of the interface cable should be oriented to the side of stowage and setting of connecting
cable on the car body.
Mark on the tank the position of flange holes and position of cable entry.
Set the flange on the sensor.
