Responding to: ???'s previous message
Fuel senders consist of an in tank float and arm that drives a magnet. The sender is mounted outside the tank and is driven by the magnet. The senders are standardised for linear rotation and are interchangeable. It is the responsibility of the tank manufacturer to match his in tank positioner to the standard response curve of the senders.
The biggest problem is the lack of baffles and the large variety of tank shapes available. This means that from a given tank manufacturer you can get two tanks for different vehicles one will be reasonably accurate the other might be non linear or shifted to one end of the scale.
This makes calibration of any interface circuit very instalation specific.
