Elesa+Ganter 11338-R HCX.76/T-AR-PT-SST-M10 Level Indicator
The Elesa+Ganter 11338-R HCX.76/T-AR-PT-SST-M10 level indicator is designed for applications where fluid level visibility, temperature reading, chemical resistance, and mechanical protection are important in one compact component. As a column level indicator with thermometer and protection frame, it supports reliable visual monitoring in hydraulic systems, lubrication units, industrial reservoirs, and machine equipment where operating conditions require more than a simple sight glass.
Technical Overview
This model belongs to the HCX/T-AR-PT series. The “76” size refers to the 76 mm hole centre distance, while the M10 connection supports a secure installation layout. The unit includes a transparent PA-T/AR technopolymer body, a built-in thermometer, a protection frame, stainless steel fastening elements, and FKM packing rings. The SST version uses AISI 303 stainless steel screws with AISI 304 stainless steel nuts and washers, making it suitable for demanding industrial environments.
The integrated thermometer allows temperature reading from 20°C to 100°C and 68°F to 210°F. This is useful when operators need to observe both fluid level and temperature from the same inspection point. The protection frame helps absorb impacts and directs stress toward the reservoir wall, supporting durability in areas where machine vibration or accidental contact may occur.
Material and Performance Benefits
The transparent technopolymer body is resistant to shocks, oils with additives, solvents, petrol, naphtha, phosphoric esters, aromatic and aliphatic hydrocarbons, and detergents containing alcohol. High UV resistance is another important advantage for equipment exposed to light or variable site conditions. The lens effect improves readability, while the special frame openings help maintain visibility even from side positions.
For sealing performance, the indicator uses ultrasound welding and FKM O-rings. The technical structure is especially relevant for maintenance teams that need a stable visual reference on fluid condition without disassembling the reservoir. With a maximum continuous working temperature of 90°C with oil, this model is appropriate for many hydraulic and industrial oil monitoring tasks.
Where It Is Commonly Used
The Elesa+Ganter 11338-R HCX.76/T-AR-PT-SST-M10 level indicator can be used in hydraulic power packs, oil tanks, machine tool reservoirs, production machinery, lubrication systems, and fluid management assemblies. Its combination of level visibility, temperature monitoring, stainless steel hardware, and protective housing makes it a practical choice for environments where component reliability directly affects maintenance planning.

Elesa+Ganter 11338-R FAQ
What is the Elesa+Ganter 11338-R HCX.76/T-AR-PT-SST-M10 used for?
It is used to visually monitor liquid level and temperature in reservoirs, especially in hydraulic and industrial systems where operators need quick inspection without opening the tank.
Does this model include a thermometer?
Yes. The HCX.76/T-AR-PT-SST-M10 includes an incorporated thermometer, allowing temperature reading directly on the level indicator.
What does SST mean in this product code?
SST refers to stainless steel fastening components. In this version, the screws are AISI 303 stainless steel, while the nuts and washers are AISI 304 stainless steel.
Is this indicator suitable for fluids containing alcohol?
The AR material version is designed with resistance to detergents containing alcohol, as well as oils, solvents, hydrocarbons, petrol, naphtha, and phosphoric esters. Actual compatibility should always be verified against the working fluid and operating conditions.
Why is the protection frame important?
The protection frame helps shield the transparent indicator body from mechanical impact. It also improves durability by transferring shocks toward the reservoir wall.
What makes this product useful for maintenance teams?
It combines level reading, temperature monitoring, sealing performance, and mechanical protection in one compact unit. This helps maintenance teams inspect fluid condition faster and plan interventions more accurately.
