Elesa+Ganter 114139-KN HCK.176-ZN-M12-FKM-PC-P-E-NO-KN Oil Level Indicator

The Elesa+Ganter 114139-KN HCK.176-ZN-M12-FKM-PC-P-E-NO-KN oil level indicator is a connector-ready column-type level indicator designed for hydraulic tanks, lubrication systems, and industrial equipment. It combines visual fluid level monitoring with an electrical normally open contact, making it suitable for machine systems where quick inspection and signal-based monitoring are both required.

Key Technical Characteristics

This model belongs to the HCK.176 series, meaning it is built around a 176 mm fixing centre distance. The ZN code indicates zinc-plated steel fixing elements, M12 identifies the connection size, FKM refers to the sealing material, and PC indicates the transparent polycarbonate level tube. The P structure includes a front protective element, while E-NO defines the normally open electrical contact. The KN suffix identifies the connector-based version.

Benefits of the KN Connector Version

The KN design can make maintenance easier because the electrical connection is more practical to disconnect and reconnect during servicing. In production environments where equipment uptime matters, this connector-ready structure supports faster troubleshooting and cleaner cable management.

Application Areas

The Elesa+Ganter 114139-KN HCK.176 oil level indicator is often used in hydraulic power packs, industrial presses, lubrication tanks, machine tools, and compact oil reservoirs. Its visual column gives operators immediate level confirmation, while the NO electrical contact can be used for alarm or control logic.
