CESSNA SECTION 7
MODEL 208B G1000 AIRPLANE AND SYSTEMS DESCRIPTION U.S.
FUEL FLOW INDICATION
A fuel flow indicator, located beneath the quantity indicators on both the
ENGINE and SYSTEM pages, indicates the fuel consumption of the
engine in pounds per hour based on Jet A fuel. The indicator measures
the flow of fuel downstream of the fuel control unit just before being
routed into the flow divider. The fuel flow indicator receives power from
a pull-off type circuit breaker labeled F FLOW NP & NG, on the left
sidewall switch and circuit breaker panel.
FUEL QUANTITY INDICATIONS
Fuel quantity is measured by four fuel quantity transmitters (two in each
tank) and indicated by two electrically-operated fuel quantity indicators
on the upper portion of the instrument panel. The fuel quantity
indicators, which measure volume, are calibrated in pounds (based on
the weight of Jet A fuel on a standard day). An empty tank is indicated
by a red line and the letter E. When an indicator shows an empty tank,
approximately 2.8 gallons remain in the tank as unusable fuel. The left
and right fuel quantity indicators each receive power from a pull-off type
circuit breaker. The breakers are labeled LEFT FUEL QTY and RIGHT
FUEL QTY, respectively, and are located on the left sidewall switch and
circuit breaker panel.
