Our KUS fuel senders are engineered specifically for marine applications for precise fuel level monitoring and seamless integration with your boat's systems.
What types of marine fuel sending units does KUS Americas provide?
KUS Americas offers a variety of sending units, including the SSS/SSL series which features a standard SAE 5-hole flange mount, the S3U series with a 1.25" BSP threaded mount, and the S5U series with a 1.5" NPT threaded mount. These units are designed to monitor fuel, water, hydraulic oil, or diesel levels.
How do KUS reed switch sending units differ from traditional swing-arm senders?
Unlike traditional thick-film swing-arm senders, KUS reed switch technology uses a float as the only moving part. This design minimizes mechanical failure points and provides greater durability and reliability in the demanding conditions of marine and industrial environments.
Are KUS Americas gauges and sensors compatible with modern digital boat networks?
Yes, KUS provides many NMEA 2000 certified products, such as the Sea N Series gauges and the KMG-20T multi-functional digital instrument. These are plug-and-play solutions that integrate seamlessly with NMEA 2000 and J1939 CAN Bus systems to display real-time engine and tank data.
What materials are used in KUS sending units to prevent corrosion?
KUS sending units, such as the SSS/SSL models, are primarily constructed from high-quality SUS 316 stainless steel. They often feature NBR (Nitrile Butadiene Rubber) floats and PVC-covered wiring, ensuring they can withstand exposure to salt water, gasoline, and diesel without rusting.
Can KUS gauges be easily read in direct sunlight or at night?
Yes, KUS gauges are designed for high visibility in all conditions. They feature anti-fogging and scratch-resistant glass lenses for daytime clarity and are equipped with long-lasting LED backlighting (often with red or yellow options) for easy reading at night.
What resistance standards do KUS Americas fuel senders support?
KUS senders are available in both American Standard (240-33 ohms) and European Standard (0-180 ohms) output signals. Custom signals including voltage (VDC) or current (mA) outputs can also be requested for specific applications.
