Ela+Ganter 113611 Column Level Indicator: HCK.127-SST316-M12-NBR-PC-P-E-NC

The Elesa+Ganter 113611 column level indicator is part of the HCK.127 family, designed for visual monitoring of fluid level in hydraulic tanks, lubrication units and industrial reservoirs. Its 127 mm hole centre distance makes it suitable for compact machine layouts where reliable level visibility is required without adding complex instrumentation.

Technical Structure

This model uses an M12 connection format, NBR sealing elements and a transparent polycarbonate tube. The SST316 designation indicates stainless-steel hardware based on AISI 316, which is preferred where corrosion resistance and long-term mechanical stability are important. The PC tube supports clear visual inspection, while the protective front structure helps the indicator remain readable in demanding industrial environments.

Electrical Contact Function

The NC marking refers to a normally closed electrical contact. In practical applications, this contact logic is often used to support level monitoring and machine protection routines. When integrated into a control panel, the indicator can help operators react before a low-level condition affects system performance.

Where It Is Commonly Used

The unit is relevant for hydraulic power packs, gearboxes, oil tanks, machine tools and industrial equipment where operators need both direct level visibility and electrical status feedback. Its combination of stainless hardware, NBR sealing and polycarbonate visibility makes it a practical choice for mineral-oil based systems under suitable operating conditions.

Elesa+Ganter 113611 FAQ

What is the Elesa+Ganter 113611 used for?

It is used to monitor liquid level in tanks, especially in hydraulic and lubrication systems where visual inspection and electrical signalling are useful.

What does HCK.127 mean?

HCK identifies the column level indicator series, while 127 refers to the nominal hole centre distance of the mounting points.

Why is NBR important?

NBR is commonly selected for oil-related sealing applications because it offers suitable resistance for many mineral oil environments.

What does normally closed contact mean?

A normally closed contact is closed during normal conditions and changes state when the defined level condition occurs.
