Item Code: FU-30
The FU30 Digital Fuel Gauge displays fuel remaining in gallons, liters or percent (0-100%) in tenths, fuel used (gallons or liters), and fuel consumption rate (gallons/hr or liters/hr). The CruzPro FU-30 digital fuel gauge is a plug-in replacement for your regular analog fuel gauge. No need for special flow sensors. It works with your standard fuel sender manufactured by Centroid, Aerotech, VDO, Teleflex, Faria, GM, Stewart-Warner and others to compute fuel remaining and fuel consumption rate. It accurately computes fuel remaining even if you have odd shaped tanks (such as often found in boats).
Low and High fuel alarms can be set over the entire range of the instrument/sender. When activated, the FU30 built-in 85 dB alarm will sound and the display will flash. The alarm can be enabled or disabled with a single key press. Five levels of backlighting can be selected and all set-up, calibrations constants, alarm values, and sender calibration is saved to non-volatile memory.
Whereas standard analog fuel gauges are notoriously innaccurate, the FU30 "learns" the shape of your tank and eliminates sender errors and non-linearities. Another source of errors is varying battery voltage. The readings for standard analog fuel(or oil pressure and water temperature) gauges vary as your battery voltage changes. The readings can actually change 30% or more as your battery voltage varies from 11V to 14V. Intelligent CruzPro gauges regulate the battery voltage and send a highly regulated and temperature compensated voltage to your sender that prevents fluctuations due to battery voltage. This ability for CruzPro gauges to learn your system errors and make them battery voltage independent provides an accuracy not available before and allows for a true fuel reading over the entire range from full to empty. Never worry about running out again.
With a press of the button you can display fuel remaining (in gallons, liters or %), fuel used, fuel consumption rate and low fuel alarm set-point.
The FU30 draws only 0.017 amps and 5 levels of backlight (including OFF) can be selected from the front panel and is saved to non-volatile memory.
The FU30 outputs fuel remaining and fuel consumption rate on the standard NMEA 0183 serial data line at 4800 BAUD. This ASCII information can be used to log performance, repeat the display information at a remote location (see www.cruzpro.com/rp30.html ) or for use with the CruzPro SEAviz virtual instrumentation software running under Windows on your computer (see www.cruzpro.com/seaviz.html). If NMEA 0183 serial data is not required, then the output terminal can be programmed as an external alarm output pin.
