Elesa+Ganter 11365 HCX.254-BW-SST-M12 Oil Level Indicator
Overview
The Elesa+Ganter 11365 HCX.254-BW-SST-M12 oil level indicator is designed for applications where clear visual monitoring of fluid level is required, especially in hot water circuits and industrial fluid systems. Its transparent technopolymer body supports easy reading, while the lens effect improves visibility from different viewing angles.
Technical Character
This HCX-BW-SST version is built around a strong column-type visual indicator concept. The M12 fixing format supports practical installation on tanks, reservoirs and hydraulic units. The HCX-BW-SST family is known for ultrasonic welding, which helps provide reliable sealing in demanding environments. Laboratory testing with CB68 mineral oil at 23°C showed weld resistance up to 10 bar for a limited time.
Where It Is Used
The Elesa+Ganter 11365 HCX.254-BW-SST-M12 oil level indicator is suitable for machinery, hydraulic reservoirs, hot water systems, industrial cooling units and maintenance-focused equipment panels. It helps operators check the fluid level without opening the tank, reducing unnecessary inspection time and supporting safer maintenance routines.
Why Visibility Matters
A level indicator is a small component, yet it plays an important role in system reliability. Poor visibility can lead to late intervention, fluid shortage or unnecessary shutdowns. The HCX.254-BW-SST-M12 design supports quick visual confirmation, making it valuable for preventive maintenance and daily inspection procedures.
