Abstract

A flexible liquid level sensor board assembly for application with liquid level sending units is presented. The liquid level sending unit includes a stem, float, and a flexible sensor board assembly. The flexible sensor board assembly is a distinct component of the sending unit and as such is capable of repeated insertion and removal from the stem. The flexible sensor board assembly is therefore ideal for existing/retrofit applications and new installations alike.
