Elesa+Ganter 11343 HCX.76-SST-M10 Level Indicator
The Elesa+Ganter 11343 HCX.76-SST-M10 level indicator is a compact column level indicator designed for reliable visual monitoring of liquid levels in industrial reservoirs. It is especially relevant where stainless steel fastening elements and FKM sealing are preferred over standard zinc-plated hardware and NBR packing.
Technical Features
This model has a 76 mm hole centre distance, M10 connection, 107 mm overall length, 40 mm level visibility, and a 10.5 mm mounting hole diameter. The maximum tightening torque is 12 Nm. These technical values make it suitable for compact tanks and machine assemblies that require precise installation and repeatable visual monitoring.
The SST version uses AISI 303 stainless steel screws with AISI 304 stainless steel nuts and washers. It also includes FKM type O-ring packing. This combination supports improved performance in applications where fastening durability and sealing material selection are important. The transparent technopolymer body provides high visibility of the liquid level, while the contrast screen improves readability during routine inspections.
Design Advantages
The HCX.76-SST-M10 is built with ultrasound welding to support a dependable seal. Its lens effect improves level visibility, and the design helps maintain readability even when viewed from side positions. In real maintenance environments, this can reduce inspection time and improve confidence during fluid level checks.
The product is suitable for oil applications with a maximum continuous working temperature of 90°C. In laboratory testing with CB68 mineral oil at 23°C for a limited period, HCX.76 and HCX.127 welds demonstrated resistance up to 18 bar. Operating suitability should always be confirmed under actual site conditions, especially where pressure cycles, temperature changes, or special fluids are involved.
Application Areas
The Elesa+Ganter 11343 HCX.76-SST-M10 level indicator can be used in hydraulic systems, lubrication equipment, industrial oil tanks, machine tools, packaging machinery, and general production equipment. Its stainless steel fastening components make it attractive for applications where standard hardware may not offer the preferred long-term durability.

Elesa+Ganter 11343 FAQ
What is the Elesa+Ganter 11343 HCX.76-SST-M10 used for?
It is used to visually monitor liquid level in tanks and reservoirs, especially in hydraulic, lubrication, and industrial machinery applications.
What does SST mean in this model?
SST indicates stainless steel fastening components. This model uses AISI 303 stainless steel screws and AISI 304 stainless steel nuts and washers.
What sealing material does it use?
The HCX.76-SST-M10 uses FKM type O-ring packing, which is often selected for applications requiring higher chemical or temperature resistance than standard NBR.
Does this model include temperature measurement?
No. This model is a level indicator without a built-in thermometer. If temperature reading is required, an HCX/T version should be considered.
What is the hole centre distance?
The hole centre distance is 76 mm. This is a key installation dimension for matching the indicator to the reservoir drilling pattern.
Why choose this model instead of the standard HCX.76-M10?
The HCX.76-SST-M10 is preferred when stainless steel fastening elements and FKM packing are required, offering a more robust configuration for demanding environments.
