Elesa+Ganter 113779-KN HCK.127 Electrical Oil Level Indicator

The Elesa+Ganter 113779-KN electrical oil level indicator, coded as HCK.127-A4-M12-FKM-GL-P-80-NO-KN, is designed for clear fluid monitoring in hydraulic reservoirs, lubrication systems, and industrial machinery where both oil level visibility and electrical signalling are required. As part of the HCK.127 family, it is associated with a 127 mm fixing hole centre distance and M12 mounting connection, making it a practical choice for compact and medium-sized tank applications.

This model uses a GL-type transparent level window, which supports visibility in oil and water/glycol-based solutions. The FKM sealing element is particularly relevant where higher thermal resistance and chemical compatibility are important. The A4 stainless steel configuration offers strong corrosion resistance, making this indicator suitable for demanding environments where moisture, coolant exposure, or aggressive operating conditions may be present.

Elesa+Ganter 113779-KN Technical Structure and Application

The HCK.127 design combines a robust technopolymer body, aluminium contrast screen, stainless steel connection components, and an electrical normally open contact. The “80-NO” configuration indicates a temperature-related normally open signalling function, helping maintenance teams detect relevant operating conditions without relying only on visual inspection.

In real use, the Elesa+Ganter 113779-KN HCK.127 electrical oil level indicator is valuable for hydraulic power units, industrial presses, mobile machinery, coolant tanks, and equipment where preventive maintenance is essential. Clear level indication helps operators identify abnormal consumption, leakage, or incorrect filling before it becomes a costly operational issue.

Why This Product Matters

A level indicator is a small component, but it plays an important role in machine reliability. When the oil level is too low, pumps may run dry, seals may wear faster, and system temperature may rise. By combining visual monitoring with an electrical signal, this model supports faster response and more structured maintenance planning.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the Elesa+Ganter 113779-KN used for?

It is used to monitor fluid level in hydraulic reservoirs and similar industrial tanks. The model also supports electrical signalling, making it useful where visual checking alone is not enough.

What does HCK.127-A4-M12-FKM-GL-P-80-NO-KN mean?

The code identifies the HCK.127 series, A4 stainless steel configuration, M12 connection, FKM sealing, GL transparent level window, protected execution, and normally open temperature signal specification.

Is this model suitable for harsh environments?

Yes, the A4 stainless steel and FKM seal combination makes it suitable for more demanding industrial environments compared with standard configurations.

Can it be used with glycol-based fluids?

The GL execution is intended for use with oil and water/glycol-based solutions, but final compatibility should always be checked against the actual fluid and working temperature.
