Elesa+Ganter 113009-KN Electrical Level Indicator

Primary keyword: Elesa+Ganter 113009-KN electrical level indicator

Overview

The Elesa+Ganter 113009-KN electrical level indicator, listed as HCK.127-ZN-M12-NBR-PC-P-E-NO-KN, is designed for visual and electrical monitoring of fluid level in hydraulic reservoirs, oil tanks and industrial machine systems. It belongs to the HCK.127 family, which means it has a 127 mm hole centre distance and a compact column-style body suitable for equipment where clear level visibility and reliable minimum-level signalling are required.

Technical Structure

This model uses glass-fibre reinforced polyamide-based technopolymer assembly ends, a natural aluminium support, a white lacquered aluminium contrast screen and a transparent polycarbonate level tube. The NBR sealing configuration is intended for oil applications with a maximum continuous working temperature of 100°C. The PC tubular window provides clear level reading, while the removable polycarbonate front protection helps simplify cleaning during maintenance.

The “E-NO” execution indicates a minimum level electrical sensor with a normally open contact. In practical terms, the contact closes when the float reaches the minimum level threshold. This makes the Elesa+Ganter 113009-KN electrical level indicator useful in systems where a low-level alarm, PLC input or machine protection circuit must be activated only when the fluid level drops to a defined point.

Application Areas

Typical applications include hydraulic power units, lubrication systems, industrial presses, automated production machines and compact oil reservoirs. The M12 mounting standard and 127 mm centre distance make the component suitable for repeatable installation in machinery panels and tank walls.

Installation Notes

The indicator should not be installed close to strong magnetic fields, because the float includes a magnetic element used to activate the electrical contact. For ferromagnetic reservoirs, spacers should be considered to reduce magnetic interaction. The recommended tightening torque for this size is 12 Nm.

FAQ

What is the Elesa+Ganter 113009-KN used for?

It is used to visually monitor oil level and provide an electrical minimum-level signal in hydraulic and lubrication systems.

What does NO mean in this product code?

NO means normally open. The contact closes when the minimum fluid level is reached.

Is this model suitable for oil?

Yes. The NBR sealing and PC tubular window configuration is mainly intended for oil-based applications.

What is the hole centre distance?

The HCK.127 design has a 127 mm hole centre distance.

Why should magnetic fields be avoided?

The internal float uses a magnetic element. External magnetic fields may affect reliable sensor operation.
