Liters, or Gallons.
Horsepower

accuracy througout all operations). This function an be set to read in percentage or raw Horsepower.
Fuel Remaining

Default Full Fuel" levels allow you to quickly reset the instrument to "Full" every time you fill your
tanks. Alarms will alert you when you've reached programmed limits for remaining fuel.
Fuel Used
Fuel Used during the current flight, as well as fuel used since your fill up is kept track of to the tenth of a gallon.
Time to Empty
Time to Empty is based on Fuel Remaining and the current Fuel Flow. An alarm will alert you when you've reached a
programmable limit.
Miles Per Gallon
Accurately keeps track of your gas mileage. This function can be displayed in Statute or Nautical Miles per
Gallon.
Pressure Channel
The Primary FP-5 and FP-5L are not only a fuel flow instrument, but are also highly accurate, digital fuel pressure
instruments. Make sure when ordering that you have your upper and lower pressure limits available.
Recurring Fuel Used Alarm
The Recurring Fuel Used Alarm can be set for any whole number of gallons used, alerting you to change tanks at a
programmable interval of gallons used. This is an excellent tool for fuel tank management.
Intensity Control
Independent control lines allow pilots to adjust the intensity of both the Green Indicator Lights and the LCD Backlight
during instrument operations.
Red Low Fuel Warning LED
This LED will blink any time the programmed First or Second Low Fuel Limit, Time to Empty Limit or Reocurring Alarm is
