Elesa+Ganter 113605-NP-KN HCK.127 Oil Level Indicator
The Elesa+Ganter 113605-NP-KN HCK.127-A4-M12-NBR-PC-NP-80-NO-KN oil level indicator is built for systems where oil level must be visible from outside the reservoir and temperature status must be communicated through a simple electrical contact. It uses the HCK.127 format, which means a 127 mm hole centre distance and M12 mounting thread.
Material and Sealing Details
This configuration uses a transparent polycarbonate tube for oil level viewing. Polycarbonate is widely used in industrial visual indicators because it provides a clear reading surface while keeping the assembly compact. The NBR O-ring supports sealing in oil-based applications and corresponds to a maximum continuous working temperature of 100°C.
The NP specification means the model is supplied without transparent front protection. This gives direct visual access to the level tube and can be suitable for installations inside protected machine frames, enclosed hydraulic cabinets or equipment where the indicator is not exposed to frequent impact.
Temperature Contact Function
The 80-NO designation identifies a maximum temperature electrical sensor set at 80°C with normally open contacts. When the temperature reaches the set point, the contact closes. This makes the product useful for warning circuits, basic machine monitoring and preventive maintenance strategies.
Industrial Relevance
The Elesa+Ganter 113605-NP-KN HCK.127 oil level indicator is relevant for hydraulic power units, industrial presses, lubrication reservoirs, compact tanks and machine tools. Its M12 connection and 127 mm centre distance make it easy to consider during equipment design, replacement planning or component standardization.

FAQ
What is the main function of this indicator?
It provides a visual oil level reading and includes an 80°C normally open temperature contact for signalling when the set temperature is reached.
Is Elesa+Ganter 113605-NP-KN suitable for oil?
Yes. The PC tube configuration is intended for oil applications, and the NBR sealing material is commonly used with mineral oils.
What is the difference between P and NP?
P includes removable transparent front protection. NP is supplied without that front protection, offering a more direct viewing arrangement.
Why is the 127 mm distance important?
The 127 mm hole centre distance defines the mounting geometry and helps engineers match the indicator to the tank design or replacement requirement.
