Elesa+Ganter 113487-KN Electrical Oil Level Indicator

Elesa+Ganter 113487-KN HCK electrical oil level indicator is listed with the full code HCK.127-SST-M12-FKM-GL-P-E-SW-KN. It is designed for machinery where liquid level must be monitored visually and electrically, especially in hydraulic and lubrication systems.

Product Build and Technical Advantages

This 127 mm HCK indicator uses a column-style design that makes fluid level easy to read during inspection. The stainless steel hardware improves resistance to corrosion and supports stable mounting over long service periods. The M12 format is widely used in industrial automation, allowing practical electrical connection in compact machine layouts.

The transparent glass tube provides a clear view of the fluid level, while the protective front element helps shield the indicator from accidental impact. In production environments, this detail matters because level indicators are often mounted on accessible tank surfaces where operators and tools may pass nearby.

FKM Sealing and SW Electrical Output

The FKM seal supports applications where higher temperature resistance and fluid compatibility are required. The SW contact configuration offers switching capability for integration with alarms, PLC systems or machine control circuits. This makes the product useful not only for manual level reading but also for automated condition monitoring.

Why It Matters in Maintenance

Low oil level can lead to pump cavitation, overheating, lubrication failure and unplanned downtime. The Elesa+Ganter 113487-KN HCK electrical oil level indicator helps reduce these risks by giving technicians a reliable visual reference and an electrical signal from the same component.
