Elesa+Ganter 11052 HCV.76-E-NC-M10 Electrical Level Indicator
The Elesa+Ganter 11052 HCV.76-E-NC-M10 electrical level indicator is a hydraulic system component developed for clear oil-level visibility and dependable minimum-level signalling. It belongs to the HCV-E family, which combines a visual level indicator with an integrated electrical sensor for monitoring reservoir conditions.
Product Type and Function
This product is an electrical level indicator with a transparent technopolymer body, M10 screw threading and a 76 mm centre distance. The “NC” version uses a normally closed contact. In practice, the electrical contact opens when the minimum fluid level is reached. This makes it useful for control circuits designed to detect an interruption signal when the oil level falls.
Material and Construction
The indicator body is made from transparent polyamide-based PA-T technopolymer. This material is resistant to shocks, mineral oils, oils with additives, solvents, aromatic and aliphatic hydrocarbons, petrol, naphtha and phosphoric esters. Zinc-plated steel screws, nuts and washers support mounting, while NBR packing rings help seal the reservoir wall.
The internal float is produced from glass-fibre reinforced polyamide and includes a magnetic element. When the float reaches the contact threshold, it activates the reed sensor. The unit is intended for fluids with density above 800 kg/m³, which helps ensure stable float behaviour in hydraulic oil applications.
Electrical and Operating Characteristics
The HCV.76-E-NC-M10 version uses the DIN 43650 C connector with cable gland. The maximum applicable voltage for the NC version is 140 Vac or 150 Vdc, with maximum current up to 2 A and maximum commutable power of 20 VA. The indicator can operate continuously up to 90°C with oil.
Why It Matters in Hydraulic Monitoring
In hydraulic power units, presses, lubrication systems and industrial tanks, low oil level can lead to overheating, air intake or component wear. The Elesa+Ganter 11052 HCV.76-E-NC-M10 level indicator supports preventive monitoring by combining visual inspection with a signal-ready sensor. For more product context, see Elesa+Ganter details.
Elesa+Ganter 11052 HCV.76-E-NC-M10 Electrical Indicator FAQ
What does NC mean on the Elesa+Ganter 11052 HCV.76-E-NC-M10?
NC means normally closed. The contact is closed during normal operation and opens when the minimum level is reached.
Where is this electrical level indicator typically installed?
It is installed on hydraulic tanks, oil reservoirs and lubrication systems where operators need both visual level checking and an electrical low-level signal.
What is the connector type?
This version uses a DIN 43650 C connector with built-in cable gland and contact holder.
What is the maximum continuous working temperature?
The maximum continuous working temperature is 90°C when used with oil.
