Elesa+Ganter 111102 HCY.76-E-NC-M10 Oil Electrical Level Indicator
The Elesa+Ganter 111102 oil electrical level indicator, model HCY.76-E-NC-M10, is a column type oil level indicator with an integrated minimum level electrical sensor. It is engineered for hydraulic systems where a clear visual reading and an electrical low-level signal are both required.
Normally Closed Contact Design
The “NC” in HCY.76-E-NC-M10 means normally closed. In this configuration, the electrical contact opens when the oil reaches the minimum level. This contact logic is often selected for monitoring circuits where interruption of the signal must indicate a low-level condition.
Construction and Materials
This model uses a transparent PA-T technopolymer body, NBR synthetic rubber O-rings, and nickel-plated brass screws. The float is made from red polyamide-based technopolymer and contains a magnetic element that activates the reed contact when the oil level drops to the set point.
Key Technical Specifications
The Elesa+Ganter 111102 HCY.76-E-NC-M10 oil electrical level indicator has an M10 connection, 76 mm nominal level distance, and IP65 protection when properly assembled. Its maximum continuous working temperature with oil is 80°C. For the NC version, the maximum applicable voltage is 150 Vac / 150 Vdc, maximum switching current is 1A, and maximum commutable power is 20 W / 20 V.A.
Application Benefits
This component is suitable for hydraulic power packs, industrial reservoirs, machine lubrication systems, and process equipment. It helps operators detect low oil level early, reducing the risk of pump damage, overheating, and lubrication failure.
