Elesa+Ganter 11057-KN HCV.76-E-STL-NC-M10-KN Electrical Oil Level Indicator

Technical Summary

The Elesa+Ganter 11057-KN electrical oil level indicator, supplied under the code HCV.76-E-STL-NC-M10-KN, is a compact column level indicator for hydraulic systems. It is designed for applications where oil visibility, minimum level monitoring, and temperature feedback are required in one integrated component.

Material and Design

The indicator body is produced from transparent polyamide-based technopolymer. This material supports high visibility and offers resistance to impact, oils with additives, solvents, hydrocarbons, petrol, naphtha, and phosphoric esters. The mounting hardware uses zinc-plated steel, while NBR sealing elements help maintain a secure seal on the reservoir wall.

NC Contact Operation

This version uses a normally closed electrical contact. During normal operation, the circuit remains closed. When the float reaches the minimum level point, the contact opens and allows the control system to detect a low oil condition. This makes the component useful for machine safety logic, alarm circuits, and maintenance planning.

Why It Matters in Hydraulic Systems

Oil level loss can lead to overheating, cavitation, pump damage, unstable pressure, and reduced machine life. A component such as HCV.76-E-STL-NC-M10-KN helps teams identify risk earlier, before a visual inspection alone would be too late.

Elesa+Ganter 11057-KN HCV.76-E-STL-NC-M10-KN FAQ

What is Elesa+Ganter 11057-KN used for?

It is used to monitor oil level in hydraulic reservoirs and send an electrical signal when the minimum level is reached.

Does this model include a temperature probe?

Yes. It includes a temperature electrical probe that helps track oil temperature through resistance change.

What does the 76 in HCV.76 mean?

It refers to the 76 mm hole centre distance, a key mounting dimension for installation on the tank wall.

Is the body made from metal?

No. The visible column body is made from transparent PA-T technopolymer, while the screws, nuts, and washers are zinc-plated steel.
