Gill4223 Motorsports

When a team began developing a new engine for Le Mans Daytona (LMDh) races they turned to Everight Position and Gill Sensors for critical oil level measurement. Given the weight limit on the engine, 396.8 lbs, Gill 4223’s compact and low weight aluminum construction made for an ideal solution. Located at the front of the engine, the Gill 4223 capacitive technology provides reliable oil information despite being exposed to up to 3.5G in sharp corners and braking and hours of non-stop engine vibration. A variety of mounting flanges including 5 bolt SAE and threaded M23, allowed for the team to easily select the best option for them and install the 4223 sensor into the oil tank without having to machine special mounting adapters.

Gill 4223 sensors are built upon Gill’s two-decade capacitive technology expertise. Its inherent solid-state, wear-free sensing technology has no moving parts, making it superior to traditional floats or point level systems. In addition to providing a proportional oil level output, a secondary output can report liquid temperature or function as an open collector switch for high or low levels. All Gill liquid level sensors include compatibility with Gill’s GS Level software for easy scaling via a graphical user interface, no programming knowledge required.
