Garosa Oil Level Meter Hydraulic Gauge with Intuitive Display

Description

Product Overview

The Garosa Oil Level Meter (model LS-5) is engineered to deliver precise liquid level measurement for hydraulic systems where accuracy and durability are paramount. Constructed from high‑grade transparent glass, the gauge allows operators to visually confirm fluid levels at a glance, while the integrated intuitive digital display translates the visual reading into an easy‑to‑interpret numeric value. This dual‑mode approach eliminates guesswork and reduces the risk of over‑filling or under‑filling, which can lead to equipment wear or failure.

Designed with a robust sealing system, the meter can withstand pressures up to 300 psi and temperatures ranging from -20 °C to 120 °C, making it suitable for a wide variety of industrial, marine, and construction applications. The sealing material is chemically resistant, protecting the internal sensor from corrosive fluids such as hydraulic oil, coolant, and certain solvents. This resistance extends the service life of the gauge and minimizes maintenance intervals.

Dimensions of 7.2 × 2.28 × 1.65 inches and a lightweight design (10.55 oz) enable easy installation on existing hydraulic lines without the need for extensive modifications. The LS‑5 model includes a threaded connection compatible with standard 1/4‑inch NPT fittings, ensuring a secure fit that prevents leaks even under dynamic pressure fluctuations.

Garosa, a recognized name in fluid measurement technology, has incorporated its decades‑long expertise into this gauge, delivering a product that balances precision, durability, and user‑friendly operation. The meter’s clear markings and calibrated scale are calibrated to ±0.5 mm accuracy, providing confidence for technicians who rely on exact measurements for system diagnostics and performance tuning.

Usage

In heavy‑duty industrial settings, the Garosa Oil Level Meter is ideal for monitoring hydraulic reservoirs in presses, excavators, and CNC machines. Its intuitive display allows operators to quickly assess fluid levels during routine checks, reducing downtime caused by unexpected leaks or low‑fluid warnings. The gauge’s high‑temperature tolerance makes it suitable for environments where hydraulic fluid may be heated by continuous operation, such as in metal forming or high‑speed machining.

For marine applications, the meter’s corrosion‑resistant sealing protects against saltwater exposure, ensuring reliable performance on boat engines and deck hydraulic systems. The transparent glass element also aids in detecting contaminants like water or particulate matter, enabling early intervention before damage occurs.

In pneumatic and plumbing contexts, the LS‑5 can be employed to monitor water levels in tanks, chemical storage vessels, or cooling systems where precise level control is essential for safety and efficiency. Its compact size allows integration into confined spaces, while the clear visual indicator assists maintenance crews in verifying fluid status without disassembly.

FAQ

What fluids can the Garosa Oil Level Meter measure?

The meter is compatible with most hydraulic oils, water‑based coolants, and non‑reactive solvents. Its sealed design prevents fluid contamination of the sensor, allowing accurate readings across a broad range of industrial fluids.

Can the gauge be installed on existing hydraulic lines without major modifications?

Yes. The LS‑5 model features a standard 1/4‑inch NPT threaded connection, enabling quick retro‑fit onto most hydraulic systems. No additional adapters are required for typical installations.

How often should the gauge be calibrated?

Garosa recommends a calibration check at least once a year or after any major system overhaul. For critical applications, more frequent verification may be advisable to maintain optimal accuracy.

Is the transparent glass prone to breakage in harsh environments?

The glass is tempered and engineered to resist impact and thermal shock. While it offers high durability, it should still be protected from direct mechanical strikes and extreme temperature gradients.

What warranty does Garosa provide for this product?

The Oil Level Meter comes with a two‑year limited warranty covering manufacturing defects. Garosa’s customer service team is available to assist with troubleshooting, replacement, or repair inquiries throughout the warranty period.
