Elesa+Ganter 11193-KN HCV.127-ST-AX-NC-M12-KN Oil Electrical Level Indicator

Industrial Oil Level Reading with NC Temperature Signalling

The Elesa+Ganter 11193-KN oil electrical level indicator, identified as HCV.127-ST-AX-NC-M12-KN, is engineered for hydraulic reservoirs that need clear oil level visibility and dependable temperature signalling. It belongs to the HCV-ST-AX type of oil electrical level indicators with a MAX temperature electrical sensor.

This product type supports practical condition monitoring in hydraulic machinery. Its normally closed temperature contact opens when the oil temperature reaches the pre-set 80°C threshold. For operators and maintenance teams, this provides a simple electrical indication that the system is approaching an important thermal limit.

Material, Protection and Installation Features

The transparent PA-T technopolymer body is resistant to shocks, oils with additives, solvents, aliphatic and aromatic hydrocarbons, petrol, naphtha and phosphoric esters. The design includes zinc-plated steel screws, nuts and washers, NBR sealing elements and a white lacquered aluminium contrast screen for improved reading clarity.

With M12 fixing and a 127 mm mounting distance, the HCV.127-ST-AX-NC-M12-KN fits many hydraulic reservoir configurations. The swivelling connector includes a cable gland and contact holders, allowing front or side cable output. Its IP65 protection class supports reliable operation where the connector may be exposed to water spray or demanding workshop conditions.

Why It Matters in Hydraulic Systems

Oil level visibility is important, but temperature control is equally critical in fluid power systems. Excessive oil temperature can reduce fluid life, affect sealing components and compromise consistent machine performance. This indicator helps combine visual inspection with an electrical temperature signal in one compact component.

Elesa+Ganter 11193-KN FAQ

What does Elesa+Ganter 11193-KN HCV.127-ST-AX-NC-M12-KN monitor?

It visually displays the oil level and provides an electrical signal when the maximum temperature threshold is reached.

What is the temperature threshold?

The standard MAX temperature sensor is set at 80°C. When this temperature is reached, the normally closed contact opens.

Is the connector protected?

Yes. The swivelling connector offers IP65 protection according to EN 60529, helping protect it from water sprays.

What type of systems commonly use this product?

It is commonly used on hydraulic reservoirs, industrial machines, power units, lubrication circuits and equipment where oil level and temperature visibility are part of preventive maintenance.
