ELESA+GANTER 11182-KN HCV.127-E-AX-NC-M12-KN Electrical Level Indicator

The ELESA+GANTER 11182-KN HCV.127-E-AX-NC-M12-KN electrical level indicator is designed for visual and electrical monitoring of oil level in hydraulic reservoirs, lubrication units and industrial machine systems. As a column level indicator, it helps maintenance teams see the fluid level clearly while also providing an electrical signal when the minimum level is reached.

Elesa+Ganter 11182-KN HCV.127-E-AX-NC-M12-KN Technical Overview

This model belongs to the HCV-E-AX series, developed with transparent polyamide-based technopolymer for strong visibility and resistance to oils, solvents and hydrocarbons. The integrated float includes a magnetic element that activates the sensor when the oil drops to the minimum threshold. The NC version means the electrical contact is normally closed and opens when the minimum level is reached.

Where It Is Used

This indicator is suitable for hydraulic tanks, oil reservoirs, industrial presses, automation equipment and machinery where low oil level detection is important. Its lens effect supports easier reading from side positions, while the electrical signal helps operators respond before equipment runs under unsafe lubrication or oil conditions.

Material and Installation Notes

The body is made from transparent PA-T technopolymer, while screws, nuts and washers are zinc-plated steel. Packing rings and the NBR O-ring support sealing on reservoir walls. For reliable performance, the indicator should not be installed close to strong magnetic fields, and the working fluid should be checked for compatibility under real operating conditions.

FAQ

What is the ELESA+GANTER 11182-KN used for?

It is used to visually check oil level and electrically detect when the fluid reaches a minimum level in hydraulic and lubrication systems.

What does NC mean on this model?

NC means normally closed. In this model, the contact opens when the minimum level is reached, allowing the machine control system to detect a low-level condition.

Is this product suitable for oil applications?

Yes, it is designed for oil level indication, especially in hydraulic reservoirs. Compatibility should still be verified for specific fluids and working temperatures.

Why is the axial connector useful?

The axial connector supports practical wiring and helps keep the installation compact, especially where side space around the tank is limited.
