Overview

The Elesa+Ganter 113013 electrical level indicator, with the technical code HCK.127-ZN-M12-NBR-PC-P-E-SW, is a compact oil level indicator with an integrated minimum level sensor and change-over electrical contact. It is designed for hydraulic reservoirs, lubrication tanks and machinery where visual level control must be supported by flexible electrical signalling.

Technical Construction

This product uses the HCK.127 format, meaning a 127 mm hole centre distance and a compact column design. The structure includes black glass-fibre reinforced polyamide-based technopolymer assembly ends, a natural aluminium support and a white lacquered aluminium contrast screen. The transparent polycarbonate tube is designed for oil visibility, while NBR synthetic rubber O-rings support use up to 100°C continuous working temperature.

The SW contact is the defining feature of this model. Unlike a simple NO or NC version, the SW change-over contact switches between two terminals when the minimum level is reached. This makes the Elesa+Ganter 113013 electrical level indicator suitable for applications where one circuit must deactivate while another activates, or where control logic requires a change-over signal for redundancy or machine status reporting.

Industrial Relevance

Oil level monitoring is critical in hydraulic power packs, machine tools, presses, lifting systems and automated production equipment. A low oil level can reduce lubrication quality, increase operating temperature and damage pumps or valves. This model helps operators see the level directly while also giving the electrical system a clear minimum-level event.

Installation Notes

The indicator should be mounted with proper alignment and tightening torque. Because the float contains a magnetic element, it should not be installed near strong magnetic fields. In ferromagnetic reservoirs, the correct use of spacers helps maintain reliable float and sensor behaviour.

FAQ

What does SW mean in Elesa+Ganter 113013?

SW means change-over electrical contact. It switches between two terminals at the minimum level threshold.

What fluid is this model intended for?

This NBR and PC version is primarily intended for oil-based applications.

Does it provide visual indication?

Yes. It has a transparent column tube for direct fluid level reading.

What is the mounting size?

It uses M12 mounting with a 127 mm hole centre distance.

Why choose SW instead of NO or NC?

SW is useful when control systems need a change-over signal rather than a single open or closed contact.
