HCK.176-ZN-M12-FKM-PC-P-E-NO-80-NO Technical Overview

Understanding Elesa+Ganter 114147 Electric Oil Level Indicator

Elsa+Ganter 114147 electric oil level indicator is built for applications where both oil level and temperature-related monitoring matter. The HCK.176 body provides a 176 mm hole centre distance, allowing a clear level reading area while keeping the overall design compact for hydraulic tanks and machine reservoirs.

The code structure gives important technical information. ZN means the fixing elements are zinc-plated steel. M12 refers to the screw thread. FKM identifies the VITON-type synthetic rubber O-ring, selected for oil compatibility and higher temperature resistance. PC refers to the transparent polycarbonate tube used for oil visibility, while P indicates the removable polycarbonate front protection.

Elesa+Ganter 114147 NO Contact and 80°C Temperature Signal

The E-NO section indicates a normally open level contact. In practical terms, this type of contact is often preferred when the control system needs a signal only after a defined condition is reached. The 80-NO section indicates an 80°C temperature-related normally open signal, useful for systems where overheating must be detected early.

Why This Model Matters in Hydraulic Systems

Oil level and oil temperature are two of the most important indicators of hydraulic system health. Low level can lead to aeration, pump stress and unstable operation. Excessive temperature can reduce oil performance and accelerate wear. By combining visible oil level reading with electrical signal capability, this indicator supports better maintenance decisions.

Elesa+Ganter 114147 FAQ

What is Elesa+Ganter 114147 used for?

It is used for visual oil level monitoring with electrical level and temperature signal capability.

What does NO mean?

NO means normally open contact. The circuit changes state when the defined level or temperature condition is reached.

What does 80-NO indicate?

It indicates an 80°C temperature signal with normally open contact behavior.

Is the 176 mm size important?

Yes. It defines the mounting hole centre distance and helps ensure correct installation on the tank.

Can it support preventive maintenance?

Yes. It helps operators monitor both oil level and temperature conditions before they lead to equipment damage.
