View Full Version : Schempp-Hirth Fuel Gauge - Type?

Schempp-Hirth used to supply a fuel gauge made by ILEC, that shows the fuel
quantity with a needle on a scale from 0 - 4.
It's made from some standard analogue instrument with a small ILEC prited
curcuit board attached to it.
Schempp-Hirth now supplies another type with digital read-out, and ILEC
doesn't answer :-(

I have this analogue version sitting in a Ventus 2cT from 2002.
Since the $2,- plastic house is broken, I've been meaning to find the
manufacturer of the standard analogue instrument.

Does anyone know the vendor and type of this?

I'll remind ILEC to answer this !

Dave, are you sure you couldn't just patch this in the software?

Dear Sir,

Please let me know your address. We will send you this part for free.
If the fuel meter quits its service, you should change to the new
digital meter.
We changed this, because these analogue meters too often failed.
