I dont have the answer to your question Simon, but I am also thinking of fitting a JPI FS450 to my 912S. I have been offered the unit with the Floscan 231 sensor because I have a carburetted engine. Has anyone experience of using this sensor on a Rotax 912S or should I insist on the Floscan 201 which has a much higher pressure drop.

Brian,
I have the 201 in my Benwick fuel computer system and it seems to work well.
Regards,
William

I am not familiar with the Floscan 231 but the 201 version works well with the Rotax 912S. When you talk about pressure drop the maximum stated pressure drop across the sensor for the 201 was given as 0.15psi (and to achieve that I believe the flow rate had to be about 30galls/hr) which is not a lot when the system is generally working between 3 and 5psi. The important thing with flow sensors is that they should not block easily. The Floscan is good in this respect unlike the Elba unit. The Elba unit can restrict fuel flow enough such that the engine cannot pass the fuel flow test. A sensor with a good capacity minimises risk of blockage or flow/pressure restriction but it also needs to be accurate. In tests with the 201 unit we are finding the quoted accuracy of within 2-3% is very conservative. Typically we are getting accuracies of within 0.25% which is very reassuring when it is used to give a calculated fuel contents. The repeatable accuracy I am getting means I know my fuel contents to within 0.25 litres at any stage.
