Elesa+Ganter 11117 HCV.127-E-STL-NO-M12 Electrical Level Indicator

Product Overview

The ELESA+GANTER 11117 HCV.127-E-STL-NO-M12 electrical level indicator is a column-style level indicator developed for hydraulic oil systems. It combines visual level reading with an electrical MIN level sensor and temperature probe, making it practical for equipment where oil condition monitoring is part of daily operation.

This model has a 127 mm mounting centre distance, M12 connection, and NO contact configuration. In the NO version, the electrical contact is normally open and closes when the minimum level condition is reached. This makes the indicator suitable for alarm circuits and monitoring systems that need a clear signal when oil level falls below the defined threshold.

Technical Construction

The HCV-E-STL series uses a transparent technopolymer body, allowing operators to see the fluid level at a glance. A lens-effect design helps improve readability, including from side positions. This can be valuable on compact machinery where the operator cannot always stand directly in front of the reservoir.

The float is made from glass-fibre reinforced polyamide-based technopolymer and includes a magnetic element to activate the electrical contact. Sealing is supported by step-shaped packing rings and NBR synthetic rubber O-rings. Laboratory testing with CB68 mineral oil at 23°C showed weld resistance up to 18 bar for HCV.127 for a limited period.

Industrial Use

This product is relevant for hydraulic reservoirs, machine tools, oil circulation systems, compact power units, and automated production equipment. Its combination of level monitoring and temperature probe functionality supports more structured maintenance routines.

Elesa+Ganter 11117 HCV.127-E-STL-NO-M12 Level Indicator FAQ

What is Elesa+Ganter 11117 HCV.127-E-STL-NO-M12 used for?

It is used to monitor hydraulic oil level visually and electrically, with added temperature probe functionality.

What does STL indicate in this model?

STL refers to the version with a temperature probe, used alongside the MIN level electrical sensor.

What does NO contact mean?

NO means normally open. The contact closes when the minimum level threshold is reached.

Is this model easy to read from the side?

Yes, the HCV-E-STL design includes improved visibility and lens effect for clearer fluid level reading.

What pressure resistance is associated with HCV.127?

In laboratory testing with CB68 mineral oil at 23°C, the HCV.127 weld stood up to 18 bar for a limited period.
