Moeller Reed Switch Fuel Sending Unit, 15 Inch Tank Depth, Stainless Steel

This Moeller reed switch fuel sending unit is built for 15 inch deep fuel tanks and uses electrical reed switch operation to track fuel level more consistently than a traditional swing-arm sender. Fuel measurements are taken directly from the float as it rises and falls with tank level, and the sender's float arm is calibrated to the industry-standard resistance range of 33-240 Ohms, so it works with standard marine fuel gauges without special calibration. The sender body is constructed of stainless steel for corrosion resistance in a marine fuel environment, and the unit is supplied complete with a gasket and mounting screws for a full replacement installation. The sender element itself measures 14 inches, intentionally 1 inch shorter than the 15 inch tank depth it is rated for, so it sits properly off the tank floor. Connection is made via screw terminals for a simple electrical hookup, and the sender mounts through a panel-style opening on top of the fuel tank. This is a normally-open contact float switch design, suited for boats with 15 inch deep fuel tanks needing a direct sender replacement.

Frequently Asked Questions

What tank depth is the Moeller 035765-10 sending unit designed for? The Moeller 035765-10 is designed for fuel tanks with a 15 inch depth.

How long is the sender element itself? The sender element on part number 035765-10 measures 14 inches, which is 1 inch shorter than the 15 inch tank depth it is rated for, so the float clears the bottom of the tank.

What resistance range does this sending unit output? It is calibrated to the industry-standard range of 33-240 Ohms, so it reads correctly on standard marine fuel gauges without extra calibration.

Is this a resistive sender or a switch? The 035765-10 uses electrical reed switch operation with a normally-open contact type, and fuel measurements are taken from the float position as it moves with the fuel level.

What material is the sending unit made from? Moeller builds the 035765-10 sending unit from stainless steel for corrosion resistance in a marine fuel tank environment.

What comes in the box with this sending unit? The Moeller 035765-10 ships complete with the sending unit, a gasket, and mounting screws for installation.

How does this sender connect to gauge wiring? Connection is made through screw terminals, and the unit mounts to the tank in a panel-mount configuration.

Will this sender work with my existing fuel gauge? Because the 035765-10 outputs the industry-standard 33-240 Ohm range, it is compatible with standard marine fuel gauges and fuel management systems.

How does a reed switch sender compare to a swing-arm sender? Moeller notes that this reed switch design collects fuel level information more consistently than a swing-arm sender, since the reading is taken directly from the float position.

Is the 035765-10 sending unit certified? Yes, this Moeller sending unit carries ETL certification.

What is the weight of this sending unit? The Moeller 035765-10 sending unit weighs 0.6 pounds.
