Elesa+Ganter 113793-KN NC Oil Level Indicator

Elesa+Ganter 113793-KN oil level indicator, model HCK.127-A4-M12-FKM-GL-P-E-NC-80-NC-KN, is a technical monitoring component designed for hydraulic tanks, lubrication reservoirs, and industrial fluid systems. It provides direct visual oil level observation through a transparent glass tube and electrical status feedback through normally closed level and temperature contacts.

Technical Profile of HCK.127-A4-M12-FKM-GL-P-E-NC-80-NC-KN

The HCK.127 format uses a 127 mm hole-centre distance, making it suitable for compact and medium-sized reservoir designs. The M12 mounting arrangement supports secure installation. The A4 stainless steel configuration is selected for applications where corrosion resistance and reliable fixing hardware are important. FKM sealing rings help maintain sealing performance under heat and oil exposure, while the GL borosilicate glass tube improves visibility and stability in industrial environments.

The P float is made from polyamide-based technopolymer and works with the electrical level monitoring function. The E-NC-80-NC configuration means the level contact is normally closed, and the 80°C temperature contact is also normally closed. This arrangement is commonly used in control systems where a closed circuit represents normal operation and an open circuit represents a condition that requires attention.

Operational Value for Maintenance Teams

In real machine operation, oil level indicators are small components with a major role. Low oil level may point to leakage, evaporation, incorrect filling, or consumption. Excessive oil temperature can indicate overload, poor cooling, contamination, or system inefficiency. The Elesa+Ganter 113793-KN HCK.127-A4-M12-FKM-GL-P-E-NC-80-NC-KN oil level indicator helps operators detect these conditions earlier by combining sight-level inspection with electrical contact output.

This is particularly useful in hydraulic power packs, machine tools, automation equipment, lubrication systems, and industrial machinery where regular tank opening is not practical. The visual level display supports quick inspection, while the NC contacts can be integrated into alarms, PLC inputs, or machine control circuits.

Practical Selection Notes

This model should be selected when the machine design requires normally closed monitoring logic, A4 stainless steel fixing hardware, FKM sealing, and a borosilicate glass tube. Before final selection, engineers should check the reservoir wall layout, mounting distance, fluid compatibility, operating temperature, and electrical control logic.

Elesa+Ganter 113793-KN FAQ

What type of product is Elesa+Ganter 113793-KN?

It is an electrical oil level indicator with visual level display, normally closed level contact, and normally closed 80°C temperature contact.

What does A4 mean in the product code?

A4 refers to stainless steel fixing hardware, selected for stronger corrosion resistance in demanding industrial environments.

Why is the 80°C NC temperature contact important?

It allows the control circuit to react when oil temperature reaches the defined switching point, helping reduce the risk of overheating-related damage.

Can this indicator be connected to a PLC?

Yes, the electrical contacts can typically be integrated into a PLC, relay, alarm, or machine control system when wired according to the application design.

What should be checked before installation?

Check the 127 mm mounting distance, M12 connection requirement, fluid compatibility, operating pressure, temperature range, sealing surface quality, and whether the control system requires normally closed logic.
