Elesa+Ganter 11195 HCV.127-E-ST-AX-NO-M12 Oil Electrical Level Indicator

Oil Level and Temperature Signalling in One Component

The Elesa+Ganter 11195 oil electrical level indicator, identified as HCV.127-E-ST-AX-NO-M12, is designed for hydraulic reservoirs requiring both visual level control and electrical signalling. This model provides an electrical signal when the oil level drops to the minimum point and another signal when the temperature reaches the pre-set 80°C threshold.

Because it combines level and temperature monitoring, this indicator is useful in hydraulic systems where early warning is important. The normally open contact closes when the minimum level or the 80°C temperature threshold is reached, helping operators react before low oil level or overheating creates equipment risk.

Construction and Technical Details

The HCV.127-E-ST-AX-NO-M12 is made from transparent PA-T technopolymer and is designed for strong resistance to shocks, oils with additives, solvents, hydrocarbons, petrol, naphtha and phosphoric esters. It uses zinc-plated steel fixing hardware, NBR sealing components and a white lacquered aluminium contrast screen for clear visibility.

The model has M12 fixing, 127 mm mounting distance and an IP65 swivelling connector with cable gland and contact holders. Its maximum continuous working temperature is 90°C with oil. Laboratory testing with CB68 mineral oil at 23°C showed that the welded structure withstood up to 18 bar for a limited period. The lens effect improves visibility from side positions, supporting quick inspection during maintenance rounds.

Why Choose This Product Type?

In hydraulic power units, presses, machine tools and lubrication reservoirs, low oil level and excessive temperature are two common warning conditions. This oil electrical level indicator helps address both with a compact reservoir-mounted solution, reducing visual uncertainty and supporting structured maintenance routines.

FAQ

What does Elesa+Ganter 11195 HCV.127-E-ST-AX-NO-M12 detect?

It detects minimum oil level and the pre-set maximum temperature threshold of 80°C, while also allowing visual oil level inspection.

What does NO mean on this version?

NO means normally open. The electrical contact closes when the minimum level or the 80°C temperature threshold is reached.

Is this suitable for continuous oil applications?

Yes, it is designed for oil applications with a maximum continuous working temperature of 90°C. Actual working conditions should always be checked before use.

What makes this model useful for preventive maintenance?

It gives operators both a visible level reference and electrical warning capability. This helps maintenance teams identify low oil level or excessive temperature before these conditions cause broader system issues.
