Fuel quality sensor assembly and method of use

摘要

Described herein is a sensing element for sensing a fluid composition comprising an electrode base having a first electrode and a second electrode disposed thereon; the first electrode and the second electrode being electrically isolated from one another except through an external circuitry; the first electrode and the second electrode being configured, dimensioned, and positioned to define a gap therebetween such that electrical conduction through a fluid within the gap is proportional to a composition of the fluid. A sensing assembly is also described including a combination fuel pressure regulator and composition sensor. Also described herein is a method of using the sensing element in sensing a fluid composition.
