Customer Responses - CiES Non-Contact Fuel Level



Cessna 177

Hi Scott,Our senders have been working perfectly with the Aerospace Logic gauge since installation last August. Thank you for your outstanding support in helping us work through an unrelated ground wire issue in the plane.Gregg Ridder
Mine have worked flawlessly since installation, and the accuracy appears to be extremely good. Hopefully someday I’ll be able to quantify that accuracy. I sure wish other aviation vendors cared about their customers like you do. Jerry Olson, 76 C177RG
Hey Scott,
I presume you got the original frequency senders back by now? The new ‘voltage’ type senders are working fine with my old(er) JPI 930. I did calibrate them (again) when installing them, however, they fail to indicate the full 30.5 gal on each side on the 930 when ‘full’ (JPI’s display units do not show partial gallonage). Most times the 930 reads 29 each side when “full” (full is over 30.5 gallons each side, sometimes QUITE a bit more). However, when I fill up, I can tell you the amount put in + the 930 readout of what’s left is almost spot on, close enough to more closely calibrate my K factor in the 930 installation (it’s still off quite a bit). I also double check with my fuel dipstick. And I did level the plane while calibrating, even though the Cardinal cruises nose down, so calibration methods give differing results depending on nose strut extension, attitude, cross level, etc.
Any my 930 still shows the digital amount remaining.
So I’m happy. Much better than the OEM stuff and those original gauges.  And it will get better with more flights.
Too bad you can’t get JPI to include your senders when new fuel reading units are ordered.

Everyone, Mine are installed (Bob Russell) and interface properly with the JPI 930.  Fuel readings seem to be extremely accurate.  I can read the remaining fuel from the JPI, and then stick the tanks for a comparison.  So far, readings are within .5 gal of what I measure.  Scott, excellent product.  Thanks for supporting CFO and members.Alan, C177RG
