Low  Fuel  Warning

(Optical Sensors designed for Aircraft use )

Don't rely on mechanical sensors alone

Don't  be  FUEL-lish!

Install the "AE Fuel Guardian" in your aircraft

BENEFITS
Why do you need a low fuel annunciator?  The answer is simple.  Extra Insurance!  Your life is probably worth this small  investment.  This is a totally redundant system!  Many of the present fuel quantity indicators are inaccurate, especially when they get down to measuring the low fuel levels.  Some fuel level indicators do not have any annunciation of low fuel level.  Other fuel indicators occasionally stick.  Other mechanical systems fail. This system gets your attention before you have to switch tanks.  When the annunciator light flashes, you will know your precise fuel quantity and also the time to engine shut-down for that tank.

WHAT DO YOU GET?

Two annunciator panel lights

Two optical fuel sensors

One push button

Sensor drive & annunciator electronics enclosure

Wiring - sensors to annunciator electronics enclosure

Lettering decals for many different fuel levels (black lettering)

HOW DOES IT WORK?

The optical fuel sensor is a non-contact sensor mounted in a single hole in the fuel tank.  It operates by bouncing a beam of light into the sensors lens.  If it is reflected back into the sensor, there is no liquid present.  If it is not reflected back, it is dissipated into the liquid media.  The sensor output is pulled down, or activated.

The electronics constantly monitors the sensor outputs of both tanks.  When a low fuel level is detected, the appropriate light starts to blink, getting the pilot's attention immediately.  After the pilot sees the alarm, he can press the acknowledge button.  This action turns the light on solid (continuous) denoting a low fuel quantity.  This function of the annunciator eliminates the distracting flashing action of the lights for the pilot, yet he can still see that he has a low fuel indication.

The AE Fuel Guardian also has an audio output.  This can be wired into the aircraft intercom or audio system if desired.  The audio beep is only present when the annunciator lights are flashing.

The AE Fuel Guardian annunciator lights can also be wired into the aircraft dimmer bus if desired for night flight.

(FAQ)   FREQUENTLY  ASKED  QUESTIONS ??
 

What fuel level should you install the sensors?

It is really up to the builder or installer.  There are several different methods and installation strategies.  Some have set the sensors in each tank to sense at different fuel levels.  One pilot used the "IFR legal limit" of 45 minutes on one tank, and 30 minutes on the other tank at the aircraft 75% power cruise speed.  I used a 1.5 gallon level on both tanks!  This was just to get my attention to change tanks before my engine quit if I forgot!  I flew a Cessna 150 for years and never had to change tanks.
