Russell Croman Posted May 7, 2012 Report Share Posted May 7, 2012 Hi guys, My '06 CTSW has the "classic" instrument panel with analog gauges... no Dynon. There is a blank cutout in the panel into which a JPI FuelScan FS-450 would fit rather nicely. Has anyone installed one of these in a CT? I am wondering two things: Is there already an LOA to install this in a CTSW? Do I need the generic FS-450 or the "Rotax" version? "regular" version: http://www.aircraftspruce.com/catalog/inpages/jpifuelscan450.php "Rotax" version: http://www.aircraftspruce.com/catalog/inpages/rotaxfuelscan.php I am confused on the "Rotax" version because it mentions two transducers and pressurized carburetors. I figured I would only need one transducer since there is a single fuel line running behind the instrument panel, and the Rotax 912 carbs are not pressurized as I understand it. Thanks, Russ N296CT Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Roger Lee Posted May 8, 2012 Report Share Posted May 8, 2012 Hi Russ, There is no LOA for this particular flow meter. You would need to file one. The reason for the two transducers in that Rotax has a re-circulation line that some people use to go back to a wing tank. Our re-circulation line goes back into the top of the gascolator. So long as you put the transducer before the gascolator like most of us have with a Dynon then you could use just one. Here is the one many use: http://www.fdatasystems.com/Manuals/FT_60_General.pdf FD now uses this too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
