Elesa+Ganter 113669 Electrical Oil Level Indicator: HCK.127-SST316-M12-NBR-GL-P-E-NC-STL

The Elesa+Ganter 113669 electrical oil level indicator is designed for applications where visual fluid monitoring and electrical level control are required in the same component. Its product type is a column oil level indicator with electrical minimum-level signal, making it suitable for hydraulic units, lubrication systems, industrial reservoirs and machinery where oil level reliability directly affects operational continuity.

The model code HCK.127-SST316-M12-NBR-GL-P-E-NC-STL defines several important technical characteristics. HCK.127 indicates a column-type level indicator with 127 mm hole centre distance. The SST316 reference points to stainless steel AISI 316 fixing elements, a strong advantage in environments where corrosion resistance is important. The M12 section indicates an M12 connection format, while NBR refers to the sealing material. The GL version uses a borosilicate glass transparent tube, preferred where stable visibility and improved material resistance are needed.

Technical Structure and Application Use

This Elesa+Ganter 113669 HCK.127 oil level indicator combines mechanical visibility with an electrical normally closed contact. The NC contact logic is widely used in monitoring circuits because it can support fail-safe style system feedback when properly integrated. The 4-pole M12 connector also simplifies wiring and maintenance compared with loose cable termination.

In practical use, this component helps operators read the oil level directly while enabling automated control systems to detect a minimum level condition. For hydraulic power packs, machine tools, oil tanks and maintenance-sensitive production lines, this dual function reduces the risk of unnoticed low oil levels.

Why This Product Type Matters

An oil level indicator is not just a viewing accessory. In continuous production environments, it becomes a preventive maintenance point. The stainless steel construction, NBR sealing and borosilicate glass tube make this model a technically robust choice for demanding industrial equipment.

Elesa+Ganter 113669 FAQ

What is Elesa+Ganter 113669 used for?

It is used to monitor oil level in tanks, hydraulic reservoirs and lubrication systems. It offers both visual level indication and electrical minimum-level detection.

What does HCK.127 mean?

HCK.127 refers to the column oil level indicator family with a 127 mm mounting centre distance.

Why is AISI 316 stainless steel important?

AISI 316 stainless steel offers higher corrosion resistance than standard steel, especially in humid or chemically demanding industrial conditions.

What is the benefit of an NC contact?

A normally closed contact is useful in monitoring circuits because a change of state can be detected when the minimum level condition occurs.

Is this model suitable for hydraulic systems?

Yes. It is designed for oil level monitoring and is commonly relevant for hydraulic and lubrication equipment.
