Elesa+Ganter 111288 Rapid Level with Float: HFL-ER-NC for Hydraulic Monitoring

The Elesa+Ganter 111288 rapid level with float, supplied as HFL-ER-NC, is a practical level monitoring component for hydraulic tanks and industrial oil reservoirs. It provides an electrical signal based on float movement, helping operators detect when a fluid reaches a predefined level.

Designed for Tank Level Control

The HFL-ER-NC is part of the HFL-E rapid level indicator family. This product type is built for systems where minimum or maximum level detection is needed. It is particularly useful in hydraulic power units, lubrication systems, and machinery where consistent fluid level control supports reliable operation.

Threaded Mounting and NC Contact

The HFL-ER execution uses a 1-inch Gas threaded coupler for mounting. This makes installation straightforward where threaded tank connections are available. The “NC” marking indicates a normally closed contact. This configuration is often selected for monitoring circuits where signal continuity is expected during normal conditions and a change in state is used as a warning or control input.

Adjustable Switching Point

One of the main technical advantages of the Elesa+Ganter 111288 rapid level with float is its adjustable dipstick. The dipstick can be removed and cut to the correct length, allowing the switching point to match the tank geometry and required fluid level. This flexibility is valuable for OEMs, maintenance departments, and retrofit projects.

The product supports more accurate level monitoring than a fixed, non-adjustable device. It also reduces the need for custom-made indicators in many standard hydraulic applications.

FAQ

What is the difference between HFL-ER-NC and HFL-ER-NO?

HFL-ER-NC has a normally closed contact, while HFL-ER-NO has a normally open contact. The right option depends on the control circuit design.

Is the Elesa+Ganter 111288 suitable for hydraulic oil tanks?

Yes. It is commonly used in hydraulic oil reservoirs and similar industrial fluid systems.

Can the level point be customized?

Yes. The dipstick can be cut to the required length to set the desired switching point.

Why is NC contact preferred in some systems?

Normally closed contacts are often chosen when the circuit must detect a change from a continuous normal condition, which can support safer monitoring logic.
