Digital compensator probe

Eaton’s digital fuel gauging compensator probe measures fuel dielectric constant for highly accurate fuel-quantity calculations. It also measures fuel height in the tank proportional to capacitance and sends capacitance, temperature and contamination data to a monitoring computer via a digital bus. One wire set sends all probe and compensator data, eliminating the need for additional compensator wiring.
