Reliable Low-Level Detection with Elesa+Ganter 113619-KN Electrical Oil Level Indicator

Product Overview

The Elesa+Ganter 113619-KN electrical oil level indicator, full product type HCK.127-A4-M12-NBR-PC-P-E-NC-80-NC-KN, is engineered for machinery where oil level must be checked visually and monitored electrically. It belongs to the HCK.127 family, which means it uses a 127 mm fixing hole centre distance. This makes it well suited to compact hydraulic tanks and machine-mounted reservoirs.

Technical Specification Profile

The A4 execution uses AISI 316 stainless steel hardware, combined with M12 threads, NBR sealing rings, a transparent polycarbonate oil tube and removable polycarbonate front protection. These details are important because oil level indicators work in areas exposed to vibration, fluid contact, maintenance handling and temperature variation. The NBR seals support general oil compatibility, while the stainless hardware gives the assembly a more robust long-term profile.

NC Electrical Sensor Behaviour

This model includes an electrical minimum level sensor in normally closed configuration. Under normal conditions the contact remains closed; when the minimum level is reached, the contact opens. This behaviour is easy to integrate into control panels, warning lamps and PLC logic. It is especially useful where maintenance staff want the machine to communicate a low oil condition before the reservoir reaches a critical state.

Practical Use Cases

The Elesa+Ganter 113619-KN HCK.127-A4-M12-NBR-PC-P-E-NC-80-NC-KN electrical oil level indicator is commonly considered for hydraulic power packs, industrial presses, gear lubrication systems, automated machinery and oil circulation units.

FAQ

What is the main function of Elesa+Ganter 113619-KN?

It provides visual oil level indication and an electrical minimum level signal.

What does the KN suffix refer to?

It identifies a specific connector or execution layout within the HCK-E-KN configuration.

Is the tube glass or plastic?

This model uses a transparent polycarbonate tube for oil applications.

What happens when oil reaches the minimum level?

The normally closed contact opens, allowing the control system to detect the condition.

Why is this product useful in preventive maintenance?

It helps teams detect low oil level early, reducing the risk of pump cavitation, poor lubrication or unplanned stoppage.
