Elesa+Ganter 113605-NP HCK.127 Oil Level Indicator

The Elesa+Ganter 113605-NP HCK.127-SST316-M12-NBR-PC-NP-80-NO oil level indicator is a stainless-steel configuration for applications where corrosion resistance, clear oil level visibility and temperature monitoring are required in one compact component. The product belongs to the HCK.127 column level indicator family and uses a 127 mm hole centre distance with M12 fastening.

Core Technical Features

The SST316 designation indicates AISI 316 stainless steel screws, nuts and washers. This material choice is relevant in demanding industrial environments where humidity, cleaning cycles or external corrosion factors may be present. The level window is a transparent polycarbonate tube for oil service, while the NBR synthetic rubber O-ring is intended for oil applications with a maximum continuous working temperature of 100°C.

The NP version means the indicator is supplied without front protection. This can be useful where direct visibility is preferred or where the installation area already provides adequate mechanical shielding. The 80-NO specification refers to a maximum temperature electrical sensor set at 80°C with normally open contact behaviour.

Functional Value in Machinery

In hydraulic systems, oil level and oil temperature are two of the most practical maintenance indicators. Low visibility, incorrect fluid level or unnoticed heat build-up can increase wear and reduce system reliability. This Elesa+Ganter 113605-NP HCK.127 oil level indicator helps operators read the reservoir level directly while giving the control system a simple switching signal at the set temperature.

Application Notes

This model is relevant for hydraulic units, presses, lubrication skids, industrial power packs and machinery operating in environments where stainless steel fasteners are preferred. For more technical context, see Elesa+Ganter standard components.

FAQ

What is the product type of Elesa+Ganter 113605-NP?

It is an HCK.127 oil level indicator, also described as a column level indicator for hydraulic and lubrication reservoirs.

What does SST316 mean in this model?

SST316 refers to AISI 316 stainless steel fastening elements, selected for higher corrosion resistance compared with standard zinc-plated components.

What does NP mean?

NP means the unit is supplied without transparent front protection. This creates a more open viewing configuration for the polycarbonate tube.

How does the 80°C NO contact work?

The normally open contact closes when the preset 80°C temperature point is reached, allowing the machine control system to detect a temperature condition.
