Elesa+Ganter 113165-KN Electrical Column Level Indicator

The Elesa+Ganter 113165-KN electrical column level indicator, identified by the stock code HCK.127-ZN-M12-FKM-PC-P-EHT-NO-80-NO-KN, is designed for visual and electrical monitoring of oil level in hydraulic and lubrication systems. It belongs to the HCK.127 series, a compact column-style indicator format used where operators need clear fluid visibility and reliable signal feedback from one component.

Elesa+Ganter 113165-KN Technical Structure and Material Configuration

This model uses zinc-plated steel screws, nuts and washers, an M12 thread configuration, FKM sealing rings, a transparent polycarbonate level tube and removable polycarbonate front protection. The FKM seal is suitable for higher-temperature oil environments compared with standard NBR configurations. The PC tube supports visual inspection of oil level, while the front protection helps reduce contamination and simplifies cleaning during maintenance.

NO Level Contact and 80°C Temperature Signal

The code includes EHT-NO-80-NO. In practical terms, the minimum level contact is normally open and closes when the minimum level is reached. The 80-NO section refers to a normally open maximum temperature electrical contact set at 80°C. This makes the unit useful in systems where low oil level and elevated oil temperature must both be detected before they create operational risk.

Where It Is Commonly Used

The Elesa+Ganter 113165-KN electrical column level indicator is often selected for hydraulic power units, machine tools, lubrication reservoirs, industrial oil tanks and compact equipment where direct visual confirmation and electrical monitoring are required together.

Elesa+Ganter 113165-KN FAQ

What is the main function of this indicator?

It allows operators to see the oil level directly while also providing electrical signals for minimum level and maximum temperature monitoring.

What does NO mean in this product code?

NO means normally open. The contact closes when the defined condition is reached, such as minimum level or the 80°C temperature threshold.

Why is FKM important?

FKM provides better resistance for higher-temperature oil applications, making it suitable for demanding hydraulic environments.

What does KN indicate?

KN is part of the supplied ordering code and should be matched with the supplier’s catalogue listing when replacing or specifying the exact variant.
