Abstract (en)

[origin: WO2015055579A1] A fill level sensor (1) for a fuel tank of a motor vehicle comprises electrical structures that consist of different materials. Sliding contact track structures (7) which are exposed to the fuel consist of a gold-containing paste. Conductor structures (9) are protected by a cover (12, 14) from contact with the fuel and consist of an especially inexpensive material. The fill level sensor (1) therefore is highly resistant to corrosive fuels and can be produced at low cost.
