Fuel Computer TL-2524 is multifunctional management of fuel in your aircraft. The Fuel Computer enables you to measure fuel quantity in one or two tanks, instant fuel consumption in various units (litres, gallons, US gallons per hour, per 100 km, per 100 miles), average fuel consumption, remaining flight time or flight range (in kilometres, miles or nautical miles) and fuel pressure. You can connect the Fuel Computer to the GPS in order to calculate a fuel plan. Using a PC and the program, which is a part of delivery, the Fuel Computer also enables you anytime to go through the history of measured values.
Price: On Request
- measures the instant fuel flow of your engine in litters/hour or liters/100 km (gallons/hour or gallons/miles), and average fuel consumption
- set the limit values at two levels (Warning and Alarm) for all measured quantities; in case of exceeding these limits, the instrument will warn you of possible engine failure or damage
- display at any time the fuel levels in the left, in the right or in both fuel tanks
- connect your Fuel Computer with the GPS in order to be able to set a fuel plan and to receive further data
- always be informed on the critically low fuel pressure, which could result in engine failure
Basic functions:
- display immediately the maximum fuel consumption, fuel pressure, etc. by pressing the external button
- using your PC, download at any time the history of fuel consumption, fuel pressure, contents of tank, etc.
- connect your Fuel Computer to the output of the signalisation unit, which will warn you of the exceeded limits, e.g. the low pressure or the minimum fuel level reached
- connect your Fuel Computer with the Intercom or the Voice Module using the iFamily® Bus and gain the option of having a voice alert of the exceeded values, low fuel levels, etc.
- you can at any time download the latest version of the firmware to your Fuel Computer, thereby always having the latest functions we prepare for you
Other functions:
- designed for all types of engine
- measures the instant and the average fuel consumption up to 100 l/hour (30 GPH)
- displays in litters, US gallons or British gallons
- remaining flight time, engine hours, overall information on fuel used
- fuel tank levels (L, R, L+R) and fuel pressure
- possibility to calibrate the fuel level sensor in the tank within 15 steps
- possibility to order a high-quality metal fuel flow sensor providing high-precision measurement
- choice of the resistive sensor or the capacity fuel level sensor
- active fuel pressure sensor with the voltage output
- simple two-button control using the nav-menu
- history of the measured values with use of the SchecK® method
- user-programmable external switch for quick selection of any function
