Aircraft External Refuel Preselect Panel

Overview

Liquid Measurement Systems (LMS) provides fuel gauging and interface controls for service, maintenance, and flight crew personnel, at the primary refuel point on the aircraft.

External Refuel Preselect Panels can display the quantity of fuel in each tank, calculate the total quantity of fuel onboard, allow service teams to pre-select desired fuel quantity, and display fault codes. LMS’ external refuel preselect panels are compact, lightweight, and rugged systems that can be adapted to a variety of platforms.
