Elesa+Ganter 11317-R HCX.254-AR-SST-M12 Level Indicator

Technical Overview

The Elesa+Ganter 11317-R level indicator, model HCX.254-AR-SST-M12, is a transparent technopolymer level indicator developed for reliable visual control of liquid levels in tanks and industrial equipment. The HCX.254 format indicates a long visual range, making it useful where operators need a larger inspection window than compact indicators can provide.

Elesa+Ganter 11317-R Material Structure

This version uses AISI 303 stainless steel screws and FKM packing rings. The SST execution is especially valuable where corrosion resistance, stable tightening and long service life are important. The AR material configuration is designed for fluids containing alcohol and offers high UV resistance, which makes it relevant for exposed or chemically specific installations.

The M12 mounting format and 254 mm size class make the unit suitable for larger tanks, hydraulic reservoirs, lubrication systems and process equipment. Its transparent body supports fast visual level checks without opening the tank, reducing contamination risk and helping maintenance teams identify abnormal level drops earlier.

Performance Benefits

The HCX-AR-SST family is intended for installations where standard level indicators may not provide enough resistance to the operating environment. Stainless steel screws improve mechanical reliability, while FKM seals support better fluid compatibility. The transparent technopolymer body keeps the level visible even during frequent inspection cycles.

Recommended Uses

This model is well suited to hydraulic machinery, industrial tanks, alcohol-containing fluid systems, outdoor equipment, machine tools and process plants. For additional machine components, visit Elesa+Ganter industrial solutions.
