Elesa+Ganter 11110 HCFE.31-M40X1,5 Oil Level Sight Glass
The Elesa+Ganter 11110 oil level sight glass, model HCFE.31-M40X1,5, is a transparent technopolymer component developed for direct visual inspection of oil levels in hydraulic systems, machine reservoirs, and industrial lubrication units. It gives operators a simple way to confirm fluid level during maintenance checks.
Product Function
An oil level sight glass is a small but important monitoring element. Instead of opening a tank or removing a cover, the user can inspect the oil level from outside the system. This supports cleaner maintenance, faster inspections, and better control of machine operating conditions.
Technical Characteristics
The HCFE.31-M40X1,5 version features an M40x1.5 thread and a 31 mm inspection diameter. It is produced from transparent PA-T polyamide-based technopolymer. The maximum continuous working temperature is 100°C, making it suitable for many standard hydraulic and lubrication environments.
The sealing element is an NBR synthetic rubber washer. Correct assembly is important because the specified tightening torque of 8–10 Nm helps preserve the seal and prevents the washer from being displaced during installation.
Industrial Application Areas
The Elesa+Ganter 11110 HCFE.31-M40X1,5 oil level sight glass can be used in hydraulic tanks, gear units, oil reservoirs, compressor systems, automation equipment, and general machinery. Its larger inspection size compared with smaller HCFE models can improve visibility in applications where easier reading is preferred.
Cleaning and Compatibility
The transparent technopolymer body should not be cleaned with alcohol or detergents containing alcohol. For fluids with special additives, chemical compatibility should be confirmed before use.
