Elesa+Ganter 113201-KN Electrical Level Indicator for Reliable Fluid Level Monitoring

The Elesa+Ganter 113201-KN electrical level indicator, identified as HCK.127-ZN-M12-FKM-GL-P-EHT-NO-KN, is designed for hydraulic systems where clear visual inspection and electrical level signalling are required in one compact component. It is part of the HCK.127 series, a column-style level indicator used on reservoirs, lubrication units, hydraulic power packs and industrial fluid tanks.

Technical Structure and Application

This model features a 127 mm fixing hole centre distance and an M12 mounting configuration, making it suitable for machine builders and maintenance teams working with standardized tank layouts. The transparent column allows operators to check the fluid level quickly, while the internal magnetic float activates the electrical contact when the level reaches the defined threshold.

The GL configuration is suitable for oil, water and glycol-based solutions, while the FKM sealing option supports demanding environments where higher resistance to heat and fluid compatibility is important. The assembly ends are made from glass-fibre reinforced polyamide-based technopolymer, with an aluminium support and a removable white contrast screen for improved readability.

Normally Open Contact for Level Signalling

The NO designation means this version uses a normally open contact. In practical terms, the circuit closes when the float reaches the switching point. This makes the Elesa+Ganter 113201-KN electrical level indicator useful for low-level alerts, auxiliary monitoring circuits and preventive maintenance systems.

Why Engineers Use HCK.127 Level Indicators

The product combines visual level control with electrical feedback. That makes it especially valuable in hydraulic systems where operators need a simple local reading but also want a signal that can be integrated into control panels or machine protection logic.

FAQ

What is the Elesa+Ganter 113201-KN electrical level indicator used for?

It is used to monitor fluid level in hydraulic tanks and similar reservoirs, combining visual inspection with an electrical normally open signal.

What does NO mean in this product code?

NO means normally open. The electrical circuit is open in its normal state and closes when the magnetic float reaches the switching threshold.

Is this model suitable for glycol-based fluids?

Yes, the GL version is intended for oil, water and water/glycol-based solutions, subject to checking actual working conditions.

Why is FKM important?

FKM is selected for improved sealing performance in applications where fluid compatibility and temperature resistance are important.
