Works with a series of reed switches and fixed resistors. The float contains a magnet that opens/closes each reed switch as it moves. No variable resistor to fail and reed switches are often rated for billions of actuations. While this sensor gives a series of steps rather than being continuously variable, it's more than precise enough for a boat, which is likely to see large differences in fuel level at the sensor from to the boat pitching and yawing in response to chop, wakes, and acceleration.The length shown is the actual length of the sensor as measured from the bottom of the mounting plate. IT IS NOT THE RECOMMENDED TANK DEPTH FOR THE SENSOR, as specified by some other manufacturers of similar sensors. Order a sensor at least 1" shorter than the depth of your tank. So if you have an 8" tank, you would order a 7" deep sensor. If you don't have sufficient clearance, you risk the sensor hitting the bottom of the tank, possibly wearing through the tank, causing a leak, and costing you several thousand dollars to fix (if the tank is permanently mounted below the fiberglass deck).Note: There are conflicting directions from the manufacturer as to what length to order. According to the directions I received with mine, it said 1" minimum, regardless of tank material. Their tech support line confirmed that number. But their web site said "the length should be 1" less than the depth of the tank if tank is plastic, and 0.5" less than the depth of the tank if tank is metal." Tank sag at sensor varies greatly depending on tank mounting, size, shape, material, wall thickness, sensor placement, and the amount of fuel in the tank at the time of measurement. So play it safe and order one that is at least 1" shorter than the depth of your tank (measured from top of tank at mounting flange to bottom of tank).WARNING: RISK OF FIRE - Do not use electric tools when installing this into a tank that has, or had, gasoline in it. Doing so could lead to a fire if fuel vapors are ignited by sparks produced within the tool (switch, brushes, etc.). If you must drill holes, whether enlarging existing holes or making new ones, use a pneumatic (air-powered) drill or a manually cranked drill to reduce the risk of fire. Good air circulation, whether by breeze or fan, can help keep fuel vapor levels down. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Very nice unit. Accurate and has a good resolution. *by M***Y on Reviewed in the United States on September 2, 2015* I replaced the OEM's arm-type fuel sender in my Hydra-sports "Vector", due to its intermittent failure. I thought that utilizing the "reed switch" type would be a better component, so I went with this model - after measuring the tank depth.I found its color code to be "reversed" compared to my existing harness, but that was easily determined/corrected by using an Ohms meter to confirm which wire went to the battery ground. I then connected the unit to the harness before installing it into the tank, to verify its operation. Sliding the ring up and down the tube showed the expected response on my fuel gauge. (Just don't forget you need the battery and ignition switches "on" for the test).With all power "off" for safety, I then installed the sender per instructions. It is a complete kit, containing the gasket and the special screws for installation. The only PITA is getting that 5-point "star" screw hole pattern correct. It only aligns correctly one way and it's just difficult to see the difference without "some" trial and error, (especially if you coated the gasket with silicone). However, I eventually managed to get it right and cross-tightened the fasteners to facilitate completion.I knew the former sender's reading on the tank's contents, so with the new sender installed, it was good to see that it agreed with the former reading. This tank depth measured 17.5" from its bottom, to the top, (inside) - so I had to select this unit as the closest match, (the "guide" says to buy 1" shorter than actual internal tank space). But I decided that if this one read nearing empty "sooner", (due to that extra half inch of the fuel level) it would be better than being in error in the other direction, (showing fuel when there is none!).I recommend this unit, as it appears to be nice quality and includes everything you need in the package to make the replacement with ease. I would recommend adding silicone or your favorite sealant to the gasket, but if surfaces are clean and true, it may not be necessary. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ KUS makes good products *by R***Z on Reviewed in the United States on April 22, 2020* I have now installed (5) senders and gauges in my boat ((1) water tank, (2) holding tank & (2) fuel tanks). All of the gauges and senders are made by KUS. The wiring instructions are straight forward and easy to follow, and all of the pieces worked properly. There appeared to be no flaws in manufacturing. I would, however, recommend always checking the impedance of senders before installing them. If you don't have an olm meter, simply put the whole system together with a small (12) volt battery and test the sender by sliding the float up and down while watching the gauge. --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.be/products/65736823-kus-usa-sss-fuel-and-water-level-sensor](https://www.desertcart.be/products/65736823-kus-usa-sss-fuel-and-water-level-sensor) --- *Product available on Desertcart Belgium* *Store origin: BE* *Last updated: 2026-10-10*
