Elesa+Ganter 113663 Electrical Oil Level Indicator: HCK.127-SST316-M12-NBR-GL-P-E-NC-80-NC

Elesa+Ganter 113663 electrical oil level indicator is a stainless-steel HCK.127 configuration developed for fluid level monitoring in hydraulic and industrial systems. Its SST316 execution makes it suitable for environments where corrosion resistance, mechanical reliability and long service life are important selection criteria.

Product Structure and Materials

The HCK.127-SST316-M12-NBR-GL-P-E-NC-80-NC model features a 127 mm hole-centre distance and M12 mounting thread. The SST316 code identifies AISI 316 stainless-steel hardware, which is commonly preferred in harsh industrial areas, outdoor machinery, marine-adjacent installations and equipment exposed to moisture or chemical atmosphere. The GL tube is made from borosilicate glass, providing clear visibility for oil, water and water/glycol-based fluids.

Sealing and Protection

The NBR O-ring supports reliable sealing in standard oil-based applications. The P protection refers to a removable polycarbonate front guard that helps protect the transparent tube while still allowing straightforward visual inspection. This combination gives operators a practical balance between visibility, durability and service access.

Electrical Level and Temperature Monitoring

This version includes an electrical level sensor with normally closed contact logic. It also includes an 80°C maximum temperature sensor with normally closed contact logic. In many control systems, NC contacts are preferred because a broken wire or interrupted circuit can be detected more easily. That makes this model relevant for safety-conscious maintenance strategies and automated monitoring systems.

Application Areas

The Elesa+Ganter 113663 HCK.127 level indicator is commonly considered for hydraulic power units, lubrication reservoirs, press systems, packaging machinery, industrial automation equipment and process support tanks. It allows visual level reading from the machine side while also providing electrical feedback to alarms or PLC-based control systems.

Selection Notes

Choose this version when a normally closed signal is preferred and stainless-steel AISI 316 hardware is required. For broader component references, see Elesa+Ganter technical products.

FAQ

What is the main difference of Elesa+Ganter 113663?

Its SST316 stainless-steel hardware and normally closed level and temperature contacts are the key distinguishing features.

Can it be used with water/glycol solutions?

Yes. The GL borosilicate glass tube is intended for oil, water and water/glycol-based solutions within suitable operating conditions.

What does 80-NC mean?

It indicates an 80°C maximum temperature sensor with normally closed contact logic.

Why choose NC instead of NO?

NC contacts are often selected where circuit continuity monitoring is useful, especially in alarm or machine safety-related systems.
