Input 1,2: One micro switch mounted on each outrigger locking system. Input 3: One pressure switch mounted on the dynamic pressure hose, same type that is used for the stall warning system. Bought from Europa Aircraft. Pressure switch will turn off below 65 knots. All inputs are connected to a relay via diodes. When all are off (Gear UP and speed below 65 knots): ALARM Micro switch on the outrigger locking system also tell you that the outrigger is locked. Best regards Stephan LN-STE.

Sorry but I may have got into a bit of a muddle over this. 1. At LAA Show Rotax Stand, said the flow rate being pumped around the system on a 914 was about 100 Ltr/Hr.and my sender could cope with measuring up to 136 an hour. Does not fit in with what the Forum are saying, but maybe the bods on the Rotax Stand have it wrong. 2. On Advice from the Rotax Stand, and the MGL Stand, I purchased the Flowscan "A" model 0 to 30 gallons and hour, ("B" modal was 0 to 60 Gph) for larger engines. 3. The MGL instructions referring to installing these in line Jets before the sender, which it clearly states, but give no information on, I believe may be only relating too, and with installing a MGL Flow Sender,!! However I think the whole lot is very poor with the instruction, and what Sender to use. Rotax Stand, Rotax don,t approve of any Flow sender being install in the fuel line, Regards .

Somehow I think I remember pulses are created optically, not magnetically and was always wondering if stale fuel would cloud the optics. If the optics do cloud, is there any procedure to clean?

Instructions. It is highly recommended a small jet is installed on engines with low fuel flows. The sender is delivered with a small jet that can be installed in the flow senders inlet, Installation of this jet is recommended with engine with fuel flows less than 30 gal/Hr, this would apply to most small 2 stroke and 4 stroke engines. The FF-1 is shipped with the fuel flow sender calibration set for the jet installation, in a good installation you can expect an accuracy of +- 3% you can calibrate the sender yourself to a higher degree of accuracy if you desire. So it the FF-1 , mentioned here, so what about other makes of senders, does this only apply to the FF-1 ?????
