Questions and Answers

How does the float in a fuel quantity indicator function when the fuel level is full?

  • It creates maximum resistance, reducing current flow.
  • It has no effect on the transmitter's resistance.
  • It produces minimum resistance, allowing maximum current flow. (correct)
  • It directly measures the fuel temperature.
  • What happens to the current flow in the fuel quantity indicator as the fuel level decreases?

  • The current flow stops completely.
  • The current flow decreases due to increased resistance. (correct)
  • The current flow remains unchanged.
  • The current flow increases as the resistance decreases.
  • What role does the variable resistance transmitter play in the fuel quantity indicator system?

  • It creates a fixed resistance irrespective of fuel level.
  • It regulates fuel flow to the engine.
  • It varies resistance based on the float position. (correct)
  • It measures the temperature of the fuel.
  • What does maximum pointer deflection on the fuel quantity indicator indicate?

    Study Notes

    Magnetic Type Fuel Quantity Indicators

    • Utilized alongside float-operated variable resistance transmitters in fuel tanks.
    • Full float position generates minimal resistance, which allows maximum current to flow.
    • Maximum current flow results in maximum deflection of the fuel quantity indicator's pointer.
    • As fuel level decreases, transmitter resistance increases.
    • Increased transmitter resistance leads to reduced current flow in the fuel quantity indicator.
    • Smaller current flow corresponds to smaller pointer deflection, indicating lower fuel levels.
