ATTENTION
1. The fuel level float shroud from Radium 20-0847-XXX is only compatible with newer Radium FCSTs (20-099X-XX) and FCST-Xs (20-199X-XX). Because the shroud is 40mm in diameter, the thru hole must be at least this size.
2. For previous Radium 20-049X-XX and 20-069X-XX FCST versions, the non-shrouded Radium 20-0747-XXX must be used.
3. Non-shrouded Radium 20-0747-203 (discontinued) and 20-0747-297 level senders are compatible with all Radium FCST and FCST-X part numbers.
This fuel level sensor uses the standard SAE 5-bolt mounting pattern, extensively used with all Radium fuel cell surge tanks.
Full stainless steel sealed construction with magnetic float.
Suitable for use with gasoline, diesel, water, and all alcohol-based fuels including methanol, ethanol, E85, etc.
NOTES
-All level senders are 0 ohms empty to 90 ohms full (common with many aftermarket gauges.)
-Radium does not sell fuel level gauges, but a popular option is this Autometer Fuel Level Gauge
-To test the sender, measure the resistance between the two wires while tipping the sender to allow the float to move.
-If purchased with a Radium FCST or FCST-X, the sender will come pre-installed.
-If the output of this sender is not compatible with your OEM fuel gauge, consider a resistance signal converter, FOUND HERE. (Radium Engineering does not have experience with this product, contact Classic Instruments for more information)

20-0439 12AN ORB to 5-Bolt SAE Adapter
When a level sender is not used, this adapter can be used to increase venting for custom installations. It converts the fuel level flange to a large 12AN ORB female port.
NOTE: a fuel level sender cannot be used with this adapter in place.
