Water-in-Fuel (WIF) Sensors

The new Water in Fuel (WIF} sensors detect water in diesel fuel within a fuel filter housing assembly or water separator. The IP67 ingress rating when mated with the corresponding connector, ensures exceptional protection against dust and water ingress. The sensors utilise capacitive technology which is known for its reliability, longevity and accurate readings in a variety of conditions. The Water in Fuel (WIF} Series have been rigorously tested and validated to meet original equipment manufacturer (OEM) specifications, guaranteeing optimal performance and compatibility.

The Rochester Sensors Water in Fuel (WIF) sensor detects water in diesel/biodiesel fuel. Used in mobile or stationary fuel filter housings, these durable sensors have no exposed leads or probes.

Water in fuel can cause serious issues with diesel engines and their associated fuel systems. Common issues include corrosion, poor combustion, injector failure and downtime. Our Water in Fuel (WIF) sensors are designed to detect water in fuel tanks and alert you before it becomes a problem.

What Are Water in Fuel Sensors?

A water in fuel sensor is designed to monitor the fuel filter for water contamination, when water levels exceed a safe limit, the sensor will then send an electrical signal to the dashboard or control system. Catching this early will prevent engine damage and help to maintain fuel efficiency.
