ELESA+GANTER 11198 HCV.127-E-STL-AX-NC-M12 Oil Electrical Level Indicator

The ELESA+GANTER 11198 HCV.127-E-STL-AX-NC-M12 oil electrical level indicator is designed for hydraulic systems where visual oil level checking and electrical monitoring are both important. It belongs to the HCV-E-STL-AX range and combines a transparent column level body with a minimum level electrical sensor and an axial M12 connection.

Technical Overview

This model has a 127 mm fixing hole centre distance, M12 mounting thread, NC contact configuration and an axial plug layout. Its column design allows operators to check the fluid level directly, while the electrical sensor helps detect when the oil level reaches the minimum threshold. The transparent technopolymer body improves visibility, and the indicator is commonly used in oil reservoirs, hydraulic power units, industrial machinery and lubrication systems.

Why This Level Indicator Matters

In hydraulic equipment, low oil level can lead to overheating, pump wear, air intake and unplanned downtime. A level indicator with electrical output gives maintenance teams an additional signal before a minor level issue becomes a system failure. The HCV.127 format is especially useful where a longer visible measuring range is needed compared with compact indicators.

Application Areas

The ELESA+GANTER 11198 HCV.127-E-STL-AX-NC-M12 oil electrical level indicator is suitable for machine builders, maintenance teams and industrial plants that need reliable oil level observation in hydraulic tanks. It can support preventive maintenance routines by making oil level control easier, clearer and more consistent.

FAQ

What is the ELESA+GANTER 11198 HCV.127-E-STL-AX-NC-M12 used for?

It is used to visually monitor oil level and provide an electrical signal when the fluid reaches a minimum level in hydraulic systems.

What does NC mean in this product code?

NC means normally closed contact. This contact logic is commonly used in monitoring circuits where a change in state can alert the control system.

Is this product suitable for hydraulic oil tanks?

Yes. It is designed for hydraulic system accessories, especially oil reservoir level monitoring applications.

What is the fixing distance of this model?

The model uses a 127 mm fixing hole centre distance, making it suitable for applications requiring a longer visible level range.
