(1) The oil quantity sensor is attached to the oil tank at approximately the 9 o'clock position.
(a) The oil quantity sensor is used to show the quantity of engine oil in the oil tank.
(b) The sensor operates with a magnetic float and reed switch system.
(c) The sensor is installed on the top of the oil tank. The sensor sends an oil quantity signal to channel B of the EEC. The EEC then sends a signal to the ECAM to show the quantity of oil in the tank.
(d) The oil quantity sensor is a line replaceable unit.
