<p>A system for monitoring a liquid level in an aircraft shock strut (10) includes a cylinder (32) having an internal chamber (42) sealed by a piston telescopically movable within the cylinder. The chamber contains a gas and a liquid, and a sensor assembly (35) is provided for monitoring a condition of a level of the liquid in the chamber. The sensor assembly includes at least one probe (80, 82) within the chamber, and a fitting assembly (72) allows one or more leads from the probe to pass through the wall of the strut while maintaining pressure in the chamber. The fitting assembly includes a plug molded to the one or more leads extending from the probe. The fitting assembly also includes a retainer for holding the plug in sealed relationship with a through passage in the strut.</p> |
