Elesa+Ganter 11348-R HCX.76/T-AR-SST-M10 Column Level Indicator

The Elesa+Ganter 11348-R column level indicator is designed for industrial tanks, hydraulic reservoirs and lubrication units where visual level control and temperature reading are required in one compact component. Its full code, HCX.76/T-AR-SST-M10, describes a 76 mm hole-centre level indicator with thermometer, alcohol-resistant transparent technopolymer body, stainless steel fixing elements and M10 threaded connection.

Technical Overview

This model uses a transparent PA-T/AR technopolymer body developed for applications involving oils, additives, solvents and fluids that may contain alcohol-based detergents. The SST execution includes AISI 303 stainless steel screws with AISI 304 stainless steel nuts and washers. The FKM sealing ring improves resistance in demanding temperature and chemical environments compared with standard sealing options.

The integrated thermometer helps operators observe both fluid level and temperature directly from the same inspection point. For the 11348-R configuration, the thermometer range is 20–100°C and 68–210°F. The 76 mm fixing hole centre, M10 thread, 107 mm overall length and 12 Nm maximum tightening torque make it suitable for compact reservoirs where space is limited but reliable monitoring remains essential.

Where It Is Used

The Elesa+Ganter 11348-R HCX.76/T-AR-SST-M10 column level indicator is commonly evaluated for hydraulic power packs, oil tanks, gear lubrication systems, industrial machinery and compact process equipment. The lens effect of the transparent body supports clearer reading from different viewing angles, while ultrasonic welding contributes to sealing reliability.

Material and Application Notes

The product is especially useful when a standard visual level indicator is not enough because the environment requires stainless steel hardware, FKM sealing and compatibility with fluids that may include alcohol-containing additives. Before installation, the tank surface should be clean and flat enough to support proper sealing. For unusual fluids, pressure conditions or temperatures, the application should always be checked against real operating conditions.

Elesa+Ganter 11348-R FAQ

What type of product is Elesa+Ganter 11348-R?

It is a column level indicator with an integrated thermometer. It allows users to check liquid level and temperature visually from outside the tank.

What does HCX.76/T-AR-SST-M10 mean?

HCX identifies the level indicator series, 76 refers to the hole-centre distance, T means thermometer, AR indicates alcohol-resistant material, SST refers to stainless steel fixing hardware and M10 indicates the thread size.

Is this model suitable for hydraulic oil?

Yes, it is commonly used in hydraulic oil and lubrication applications, provided that the actual temperature, pressure and fluid compatibility are suitable.

Why is FKM sealing important?

FKM offers strong temperature and chemical resistance, making it valuable for industrial systems where standard rubber seals may age faster.

Does it show temperature?

Yes. The integrated thermometer gives a direct temperature reading, helping maintenance teams detect abnormal operating conditions earlier.
