Elesa+Ganter 113157 HCK.127-ZN-M12-FKM-PC-P-EHT-NO Electrical Level Indicator

The Elesa+Ganter 113157 HCK.127-ZN-M12-FKM-PC-P-EHT-NO electrical level indicator is intended for industrial applications where operators need both visual oil level control and electrical monitoring. It is part of the HCK.127 column level indicator family, widely used in hydraulic reservoirs and machine oil tanks.

Product Configuration

The HCK.127 format identifies a 127 mm hole centre distance. The M12 mounting design supports secure installation on suitable tanks and reservoirs. The ZN hardware configuration uses zinc-plated steel fixing elements, while the FKM O-ring system provides enhanced resistance for oil-based applications and elevated temperature conditions.

The PC tube gives a clear view of the fluid column, allowing technicians to confirm the oil level directly without opening the tank. A removable polycarbonate front protection helps protect the viewing area and can be removed for cleaning when needed.

EHT-NO Function

The “EHT-NO” execution refers to an electrical level indicator with a normally open contact and high-temperature related switching arrangement. The float is designed with a magnetic element that activates the electrical contact when the fluid reaches the switching threshold. This makes the indicator useful in machine systems where electrical status feedback is required alongside manual inspection.

Recommended Use Cases

The Elesa+Ganter 113157 HCK.127-ZN-M12-FKM-PC-P-EHT-NO electrical level indicator is suitable for hydraulic power units, lubrication reservoirs, compact machine tanks, industrial presses and automated production machinery. It helps maintenance teams identify abnormal level conditions and supports more structured machine monitoring.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the main purpose of Elesa+Ganter 113157?

It is designed to indicate oil level visually and provide electrical level feedback through a normally open contact configuration.

What does NO mean?

NO means normally open. The electrical contact remains open under normal conditions and changes state when the switching point is reached.

Is the PC tube suitable for water-glycol fluids?

The PC tube version is generally intended for oil. For water or glycol-based solutions, glass tube versions are typically considered.

Why choose FKM instead of NBR?

FKM is preferred where higher temperature resistance and stronger chemical compatibility with certain oils are required.

Can this be used in automated monitoring?

Yes. Its electrical contact can support machine control, warning circuits or maintenance monitoring systems when correctly integrated.
