Specifications - For use with gas engines only. Size Fuel Remaining Mount 21/16" diameter hole User enters a fuel value into memory. Depth behind face plate3" min The quantity of fuel used is Display 3-character LCD automatically subtracted from the total. This value remains in memory at power Backlighting down.
IMPORTANT Always install the Fuel Flow Transducer AFTER the primary filter. The primary filter must be a good quality water separator type with a minimum filtration of 30 microns or better. (10 or 2 micron. The lower the micron rating the finer the filtration) Failure to provide this level of filtration protection will result in inaccurate readings or total failure or damage to the transducer.
Wiring Connection • Connect the red wire from the gauge to • Keep electrical and transducer cables the positive supply through a 1 amp fuse away from alternator or other noise or a 1 amp circuit breaker. Connect the generating electrical cables. Avoid green wire from the gauge to the connecting the instrument to power electrical ground.
Instrument Setup While a properly calibrated unit should provide accuracy within the published limits, Select units of measure the user should also have a level sender or fuel level gauge installed in the boat. This is The Fuel Management fuel flow meter can necessary due to possible operator induced display fuel values in US gallons, Liters or errors such as forgetting to reset the fuel...
Flow Averaging The Flow Averaging function sets the Flow Average Menu time period over which the fuel flow is Follow the steps outlined below to enter averaged. The time period can be set in the Flow Averaging Menu: the range of 1 to 99 seconds. Normally, engines do not draw fuel from the tank 1.
