Elesa+Ganter 113605-KN HCK.127 Oil Level Indicator

The Elesa+Ganter 113605-KN HCK.127-A4-M12-NBR-PC-P-80-NO-KN oil level indicator is designed for hydraulic reservoirs, lubrication units and industrial tanks where visual level checking and temperature-related signalling are both important. This model belongs to the HCK.127 family, which uses a 127 mm hole centre distance and M12 fastening thread, making it suitable for compact equipment panels and standard hydraulic tank layouts.

Technical Structure

This indicator uses a transparent polycarbonate level tube intended for oil applications. The NBR O-ring supports sealing performance in mineral-oil environments and is associated with a maximum continuous working temperature of 100°C. The “P” execution includes removable polycarbonate front protection, which helps shield the viewing area while allowing access for cleaning when required.

The 80-NO specification refers to a maximum temperature electrical sensor set at 80°C with normally open contacts. In practical terms, the contact closes when the set temperature is reached. This makes the unit useful in systems where overheating needs to be detected through a simple electrical signal.

Where It Is Typically Used

Because it combines oil level visibility, M12 mounting and an 80°C NO temperature contact, this product type is often used in hydraulic power packs, machine tools, industrial lubrication systems, mobile equipment reservoirs and process machinery. The A4 and KN elements point to a configuration selected for robust fastening and maintenance-oriented installation.

Why the HCK.127 Format Matters

The 127 mm centre distance provides a balanced viewing range for small and medium tank designs. Operators can inspect oil level quickly, while maintenance teams benefit from a recognizable mounting format. For related standard machine components, visit Elesa+Ganter product information.

Elesa+Ganter 113605-KN FAQ

What is Elesa+Ganter 113605-KN HCK.127 oil level indicator used for?

It is used to visually monitor oil level in hydraulic or lubrication reservoirs and to provide an electrical signal when the maximum temperature sensor reaches 80°C.

What does 80-NO mean?

80-NO means the temperature electrical sensor is set at 80°C and has normally open contacts. The contact closes when the set temperature is reached.

Is the polycarbonate tube suitable for water?

The PC tube execution is intended for oil. For water or water-glycol applications, the GL borosilicate glass version is normally the more suitable reference.

What does the P version provide?

The P version includes removable transparent polycarbonate front protection, helping protect the level window while keeping maintenance practical.
