Elesa+Ganter 111162 HCY.127-E-ST-NC-M12 Oil Electrical Level Indicator

Product Description

The ELESA+GANTER 111162 HCY.127-E-ST-NC-M12 oil electrical level indicator is an industrial hydraulic accessory developed for systems that require reliable oil level visibility and electrical monitoring. It is part of the HCY-E-ST series and features a MIN level electrical sensor with a temperature electrical probe.

This version uses an NC contact configuration. In practical terms, the electrical contact is normally closed and opens when the minimum oil level is reached. This behaviour is often preferred in monitoring circuits where signal interruption can be used as a warning condition.

Construction and Technical Details

The indicator is manufactured with a transparent polyamide-based technopolymer body for clear visual reading. It includes nickel-plated brass fixing screws, NBR synthetic rubber sealing rings, and a technopolymer float. A watertight sensor block supports stable operation in oil monitoring environments.

The HCY.127 configuration has a 127 mm mounting centre distance and M12 connection. Its white lacquered aluminium contrast screen helps improve oil level readability and can be removed before installation to add reference lines or markings. The maximum continuous working temperature is 80°C with oil.

Performance Considerations

Laboratory tests with CB68 mineral oil at 23°C showed weld resistance up to 9 bar for the HCY.127 size for a limited period. As with all hydraulic accessories, compatibility should be checked according to the real fluid, pressure, temperature, and vibration conditions of the application.

The model is well suited for hydraulic power units, oil tanks, machine tools, lubrication systems, and industrial equipment where a low-level warning signal is required alongside local visual inspection.

Elesa+Ganter 111162 HCY.127-E-ST-NC-M12 Level Indicator FAQ

What does Elesa+Ganter 111162 HCY.127-E-ST-NC-M12 do?

It allows visual oil level inspection and sends an electrical signal when the minimum oil level is reached.

What does NC mean?

NC means normally closed. The contact opens when the minimum level condition occurs.

Does this indicator include a temperature function?

Yes, the HCY-E-ST series includes a temperature electrical probe together with the MIN level sensor.

What is the mounting distance?

This model has a 127 mm mounting centre distance.

Can it be used with fluids other than mineral oil?

It may be possible, but the fluid, pressure, and temperature conditions should be checked before use.
