Fuel Level Sender |
The fuel level sender is attached to a float in the fuel tank. As the fuel level changes, the float inside the tank moves. The movement of the float will change the resistance of the sender. The voltage to the controller will change as the resistance of the sender changes. The controller will monitor this voltage and the controller will compare this voltage to values that are known. This comparison will determine the level of fuel in the tank.

Engine Coolant
The resistance of the sender will change as the temperature of the coolant changes. The voltage to the controller will change as the resistance of the sender changes. The controller will monitor this voltage and the controller will compare this voltage to values that are known. This comparison will determine the temperature of the coolant.
Hydraulic Oil
The resistance of the sender will change as the temperature of the fluid changes. The voltage to the controller will change as the resistance of the sender changes. The controller will monitor this voltage and the controller will compare this voltage to values that are known. This comparison will determine the temperature of the hydraulic oil.
