Elesa+Ganter 113149 Electrical Column Level Indicator

The Elesa+Ganter 113149 electrical column level indicator is an HCK.127 model developed for hydraulic and oil reservoir monitoring where visual inspection and electrical alarm functions are required together. It is particularly relevant for machinery where a normally closed safety logic is preferred for level and temperature supervision.

Technical Characteristics

This product is configured as HCK.127-ZN-M12-FKM-PC-P-E-NC-80-NC. The 127 mm hole centre distance makes it suitable for compact tank designs, while the zinc-plated steel screws, nuts and washers provide dependable mechanical fastening. The FKM O-rings offer enhanced resistance for demanding oil applications, and the polycarbonate transparent tube allows the operator to check the fluid level quickly.

The “E-NC” designation means the minimum level electrical contact is normally closed and opens when the fluid reaches the minimum level threshold. The “80-NC” temperature contact works in a similar logic: it opens when the preset 80°C temperature is reached. This can be useful in systems where interruption of a circuit must indicate an abnormal condition.

Operational Benefits

In daily operation, the indicator helps maintenance teams see the oil level immediately while also allowing machine control panels to detect critical level or temperature events. This dual approach is valuable in hydraulic presses, lubrication units, compact power packs, mobile equipment and automated production systems.

Elesa+Ganter 113149 Application Notes

The polycarbonate level tube is intended for oil use. The FKM sealing arrangement supports a maximum continuous working temperature up to 130°C for the O-ring material, while the level sensor float in this configuration is rated for continuous working temperatures up to 80°C. Actual compatibility should always be checked according to the fluid, pressure and temperature conditions of the application.

Elesa+Ganter 113149 Electrical Column Level Indicator FAQ

What type of product is Elesa+Ganter 113149?

It is an electrical column level indicator with minimum level monitoring and a maximum temperature sensor set at 80°C.

What is the advantage of NC contacts?

Normally closed contacts can support fail-safe style monitoring. When the minimum level or temperature threshold is reached, the contact opens and the control system can detect the change.

Can it be used only as a visual level indicator?

It provides visual level indication, but its main advantage is the combination of visual monitoring with electrical level and temperature signalling.

Is the product designed for hydraulic oil?

Yes, the PC tube configuration is intended for oil applications, including common hydraulic reservoir monitoring tasks.
