Elesa+Ganter 11113-KN HCV.127-ST-NC-M12-KN Column Level Indicator

Technical Overview

The Elesa+Ganter 11113-KN column level indicator, model HCV.127-ST-NC-M12-KN, combines visual oil level reading with electrical level and temperature monitoring. It is intended for hydraulic reservoirs, lubrication units and industrial equipment where accurate condition feedback helps maintenance teams act before machine performance is affected.

The 127 mm mounting distance and 153 mm overall length make this model suitable for standardized reservoir layouts. Its transparent PA-T technopolymer body supports direct fluid visibility, while the integrated contrast screen helps make readings clearer in workshop and production environments.

NC Contact with KN Connector

This version uses an NC, or normally closed, contact configuration. When the fluid reaches the minimum level threshold, the contact opens. In many industrial control layouts, this can be useful for monitoring continuity and detecting level-related events.

The KN execution includes an M12x1 connector style, helping create a compact and organized electrical connection. This can be especially useful in installations where wiring reliability, service access and connector consistency matter.

Material, Sealing and Use Cases

The indicator is built for industrial fluid environments, with a technopolymer body resistant to oils, hydrocarbons and additives. Zinc-plated steel fastening elements and sealing components support secure reservoir installation. The ST configuration adds temperature sensor functionality, making the product more informative than a purely visual sight gauge.

Elesa+Ganter 11113-KN M12 NC Level Indicator FAQ

What is the Elesa+Ganter 11113-KN column level indicator?

It is a hydraulic reservoir indicator that provides both visual level reading and electrical feedback for minimum level monitoring.

How does the NC contact work?

The NC contact remains closed during normal conditions and opens when the minimum level point is reached.

What is the benefit of the KN connector?

The KN version uses an M12x1 connector arrangement, supporting easier integration into structured machine wiring systems.

Can this indicator help with preventive maintenance?

Yes. By supporting level and temperature-related monitoring, it can help maintenance teams identify abnormal reservoir conditions earlier.

Is it only for visual inspection?

No. It also provides electrical signalling, making it more functional than a simple sight glass or manual level gauge.
