Elesa+Ganter 113603 Electrical Level Indicator

The Elesa+Ganter 113603 electrical level indicator, coded as HCK.127-SST316-M12-NBR-PC-P-80-NC, is designed for clear oil level monitoring in hydraulic tanks, reservoirs, and industrial machinery where visual inspection and electrical signaling are both required. Its HCK.127 format refers to a 127 mm hole centre distance, making it suitable for compact installations where reliable level reading must be achieved without complex instrumentation.

Technical Structure and Material Configuration

This model uses M12 threaded mounting, NBR sealing rings, a transparent polycarbonate level tube, and removable front protection. The SST316 reference indicates stainless steel hardware suitable for environments where corrosion resistance is an important engineering requirement. The polycarbonate window supports direct visual reading, while the protected front design helps reduce exposure to external mechanical contact during routine industrial operation.

The “80-NC” configuration identifies a maximum temperature sensor setting of 80°C with a normally closed contact logic. This is especially relevant in hydraulic power units and lubrication systems where rising oil temperature or level variation must be integrated into machine control circuits. The NC output is often preferred in safety-aware circuits because a change in state can be detected by the monitoring system.

Where This Indicator Is Commonly Used

The Elesa+Ganter 113603 electrical level indicator is commonly applied in hydraulic oil tanks, industrial lubrication reservoirs, power transmission units, machine tools, and automation equipment. Its combination of visual level inspection and electrical monitoring makes it practical for maintenance teams that need fast local reading and a signal-ready component for control panels.
