HCX.

Material

Transparent polyamide based (PA-T) technopolymer. Highly resistant to shocks, solvents, oils with additives, aliphatic and aromatic hydrocarbons, petrol, naphtha, phosphoric esters.

Avoid contact with alcohol or detergents containing alcohol.

Screws, nuts and washers

AISI 303 stainless steel screws, AISI 304 stainless steel nuts and washers.

Packing rings

FKM type VITON®*O-Ring.

Suggested roughness of the packing ring application surface Ra = 3 µm.

Contrast screen

White lacquered aluminium. The housing, in the appropriate external rear slot, guarantees the best protection from direct contact with fluid.

It can be taken out from the inclined side, before assembly to allow the insertion of level lines or words.

Standard executions

  • HCX-SST: without thermometer.
  • HCX/T-SST: with incorporated thermometer.

Mounting

When fitting is not possible from the inside of the reservoir and the walls are not thick enough, the screws can be used together with Fast Mounting Kit-.

Maximum continuous working temperature

90°C (with oil).

Features and performances

Ultrasound welding to guarantee a perfect seal.

Maximum fluid level visibility even from side positions.

Lens effect for a better visibility of the fluid level and temperature.

Technical data

In laboratory tests carried out with mineral oil type CB68 (according to ISO 3498) at 23°C for a limited period of time, the weld stood up to: 18 bar (HCX.76-SST and HCX.127-SST) 12 bar (HCX.254-SST).

For use with other fluids and under different pressure and temperature conditions, please contact ELESA Technical Department.

In any case we suggest to verify the suitability of the product under the actual working conditions.

Other standard executions

  • HCX-AR for use with fluids containing alcohol.
  • HCX-BW-SST for use with hot water.
  • HCX-PT with SUPER-technopolymer protection frame.

Special executions on request

  • UV resistant transparent technopolymer indicators.
  • Indicators with two red ball-shaped floats (only for the execution without thermometer).
  • Indicators with cylindrical or step-shaped (NBR or FKM) packing rings (instead of OR) for mounting on reservoirs having rough surfaces or in any case not perfectly flat.
