Product Description
The 030a-986408-1 is a capacitive sensing element for aircraft Fuel Quantity Indicating Systems (FQIS). This tank-unit fuel quantity capacitor measures fuel level by detecting dielectric changes within the fuel tank. Installed as part of the probe/transmitter assembly, it interfaces with the signal conditioner and cockpit indicator to provide real-time fuel quantity readings.
The capacitor operates per SAE AS405 guidance for capacitance-based fuel measurement. Installation and calibration must follow the aircraft maintenance manual and verified against the Illustrated Parts Catalog for proper FQIS function.
Please note: Product descriptions are provided for informational purposes. Always refer to your aircraft's Illustrated Parts Catalog (IPC) to verify part compatibility and specifications.
