52mm Fuel Level Gauge
- Unit price
- / per
Reads: Fuel level
Resistance: 0–190 ohms (European) or 240–30 ohms (American)
Gauge size: 52mm diameter
Power: 12V or 24V
Waterproof rating: IP67
Backlight: red or amber
Face: black or white
Bezel: black or white plastic, or 316 stainless
Like all products in the Wema range, our analogue instruments are built to last. Designed to be accurate, reliable and dependable over years of use.
Running out of fuel unexpectedly is, at best, an inconvenience. A fuel gauge you can trust and depend on really matters — and consistent, accurate readings over years of use is what these are designed to deliver.
The IP67 rating means that the gauge is waterproof to up to 1m underwater for 30 minutes and although we hope it never comes to that, it does mean that the gauge is sealed completely from all weather and dust ingress.
Fits any standard 52mm panel cutout. Retrofits straight into most existing dashboards without modification, or drops into any new installation.
Works with any resistance sender of the correct range — Wema S3 or S5, or any sender from another manufacturer with a matching resistance.
Available in European (0-190Ω) and American (240-30Ω) resistance.
Sender and gauge must have the same resistance range — or the gauge will read backwards, or not at all. Not sure which you have? →
Runs on 12V. For 24V systems a dropping resistor is supplied — or a voltage regulator for a cleaner, more stable long-term solution.
Red or amber backlight. Available in black or white face with black, white or brushed stainless bezel — the same styling runs across the full Wema gauge range, so everything matches.
We stand behind our products with a 3-year guarantee.
Specifications
- Panel cutout: 52mm
- Resistance: 0-190Ω (European) or 240-30Ω (American)
- IP rating: IP67 (dust-tight, waterproof to 1m / 30 min)
- Power: 12V (dropping resistor supplied for 24V)
- Backlight: red or amber
S3 Fuel and Water Sender → | S5 Fuel and Water Sender → | European vs American resistance →
The gauge has a 5-pin connector:
1. Blue — 12V negative (ground)
2. Red — 12V positive (fused, via the ignition or a separate switch)
3. Black — to the sender
4. Orange — red backlight
5. Yellow — amber backlight
Connect either the Orange or the Yellow wire for backlighting — the wire colour matches the backlight colour. The backlight is dimmable.
Fitting on 24V: either fit a voltage regulator (12V output) ahead of the gauge, or wire the supplied 150Ω dropping resistor in line with the 12V positive feed.
1. Cut a 52mm (2 1/16") diameter hole in the panel. You will need a minimum clearance of 55mm (2 3/16") behind the panel to fit the gauge. The panel can be 1–20mm thick.
2. Remove the fastening ring, insert the gauge through the panel from the front, then fit and tighten the fastening ring from the rear.
3. Connect the wiring as shown in the wiring diagram, selecting either the Orange or Yellow wire for your preferred backlight colour.
4. Securely connect the plug into the port at the back of the gauge.
