Elesa+Ganter 111041 HCK.381-ZN-M12-NBR-PC-P Oil Level Indicator

Technical Overview

The Elesa+Ganter 111041 HCK.381-ZN-M12-NBR-PC-P oil level indicator is a column-style visual level indicator developed for hydraulic systems, lubrication units, and tanks using oil or glycol-based solutions. The 381 mm size makes it suitable for applications where a longer visual reading area is required.

This product type combines technopolymer fixing heads, M12 mounting, NBR sealing, and a polycarbonate front protection. The PC protection is useful in industrial environments because it helps shield the transparent viewing area against accidental impact, dirt, and workshop contact. The contrast screen behind the viewing column improves readability, allowing operators to check the fluid level quickly during routine inspection.

Application Areas

The Elesa+Ganter 111041 HCK.381-ZN-M12-NBR-PC-P oil level indicator is suitable for hydraulic power packs, oil tanks, machine lubrication reservoirs, industrial presses, and maintenance-intensive production lines. Its design supports simple visual control, which remains valuable even when electronic monitoring is also present.

Why This Configuration Matters

The NBR sealing system is commonly selected for mineral oil environments. The M12 connection provides a familiar mounting format, while the protected PC front helps extend usability in machine areas where accidental knocks may occur. For users comparing HCK-P and HCK-NP options, this version is the protected choice.

FAQ

What is the Elesa+Ganter 111041 HCK.381-ZN-M12-NBR-PC-P designed for?

It is designed for visual oil level monitoring in hydraulic and lubrication systems, especially where a protected viewing face is preferred.

What does PC-P mean in this code?

PC-P indicates a polycarbonate protected version. The front protection helps reduce the risk of damage from accidental contact.

Is NBR suitable for hydraulic oil?

NBR is widely used with mineral oils and many hydraulic fluids, but compatibility should still be checked against the exact fluid and working temperature.

Why choose a 381 mm level indicator?

A 381 mm indicator provides a longer visible range, making it easier to monitor tanks where fluid variation is larger or where a broader reading window is needed.
