Elesa+Ganter 113155-KN HCK.127-ZN-M12-FKM-PC-P-E-NC-STL-KN Electrical Level Indicator

The Elesa+Ganter 113155-KN HCK.127-ZN-M12-FKM-PC-P-E-NC-STL-KN electrical level indicator is a compact oil level monitoring component developed for hydraulic and industrial machine systems. It combines visual fluid level reading with an electrical level signal, helping maintenance teams detect low-level conditions before they affect machine reliability.

Technical Structure

This HCK.127 version uses a 127 mm mounting distance and M12 fixing. The ZN configuration refers to zinc-plated steel screws, nuts and washers. The FKM sealing rings provide reliable sealing performance in oil-based applications, while the transparent polycarbonate tube allows direct visual inspection of the oil level.

The “KN” suffix identifies the connector execution. Compared with cable-gland style versions, the KN version is associated with an M12x1 connector arrangement, supporting cleaner integration into machine wiring layouts. This can be helpful in industrial panels and hydraulic units where fast connection, maintenance access and wiring consistency matter.

Electrical Function

The “E-NC-STL-KN” configuration indicates an electrical level indicator with normally closed level contact and temperature probe arrangement in the KN connector version. The internal float includes a magnetic element that interacts with the switching system at the defined threshold. In practice, this supports level monitoring in equipment where early response to oil loss is important.

Industrial Applications

The Elesa+Ganter 113155-KN HCK.127-ZN-M12-FKM-PC-P-E-NC-STL-KN electrical level indicator can be used on hydraulic reservoirs, mobile machinery lubrication systems, industrial presses, machine tools and production equipment. Its visual and electrical monitoring functions make it suitable for both operator inspection and machine control integration.

Frequently Asked Questions

What makes the 113155-KN version different?

The KN version uses an M12x1 connector style arrangement, which can simplify wiring and replacement in industrial electrical installations.

Is Elesa+Ganter 113155-KN suitable for hydraulic oil tanks?

Yes. Its PC tube and FKM sealing configuration make it appropriate for oil level monitoring in hydraulic systems.

What does NC mean in this product code?

NC means normally closed. It describes the default state of the level contact before the switching threshold is reached.

Why is FKM important?

FKM is used where improved sealing performance and higher temperature resistance are required in oil-based environments.

Can this indicator be used for visual inspection only?

Yes. Even though it includes electrical signalling, the transparent column still provides a direct visual reference for operators.
