226-640 - Vdo Reed Switch Fuel Sender - 400 MM

Reed Switch Fuel Sender - 400 MM

Most aftermarket fuel senders use a rotating float arm and resistance cards to measure the amount of fuel in a tank which can lead to erratic pointer movements.  This revolutionary design comes with many benefits!  This is ideal for applications where a conventional swing arm will not fit due to clearance issues.  The tubular design acts as a dampener to prevent the gauge pointer from moving due to fuel slosh.  

The floatless fuel sender has no side to side motion, which means it has no moving parts to wear out.  It is top mounted and utilizes the aftermarket standard SAE 5 hole mounting flange and comes complete with neoprene gasket and mounting hardware.

The VDO Reed Switch Fuel Sender (part number 226-640) is designed for accurate fuel level measurement in tanks where traditional swing-arm senders are impractical. This unit utilizes a tubular, floatless design, which mitigates erratic gauge pointer movements caused by fuel slosh, a common issue with conventional resistance-card senders. Its construction makes it suitable for applications with limited internal tank clearance. The sender is engineered for top-mounting and features a standard SAE 5-hole mounting flange, compatible with most aftermarket marine fuel gauges. Constructed from stainless steel with an ethanol-resistant Viton gasket, it offers durability in various fuel environments. The 240-33 Ohm range and insulated 1/4" spade connectors ensure compatibility with standard systems. This sender is intended for IT and industrial buyers seeking a reliable, low-maintenance fuel level sensing solution for tanks with a depth of 15.75 inches (400mm).
