Elesa+Ganter 113735-KN Column Level Indicator for Reliable Fluid Monitoring
The Elesa+Ganter 113735-KN column level indicator is designed for industrial systems where accurate visual monitoring of oil, coolant, and compatible process fluids is essential. Identified by the technical code HCK.127-A4-M12-FKM-PC-P-80-NC-KN, this model combines A4 stainless steel connection parts, an M12 mounting design, FKM sealing, a transparent PC tube, and an 80°C normally closed sensor configuration.
Technical Overview
This level indicator belongs to the HCK.127 family, which is widely used on hydraulic reservoirs, lubrication units, and industrial tanks. The 127 mm centre distance provides a compact yet practical viewing range, while the polycarbonate tube supports clear visual inspection of the fluid level. The FKM sealing material improves chemical and temperature resistance, making the product suitable for demanding environments.

Where This Level Indicator Is Used
The Elesa+Ganter 113735-KN is suitable for machinery where the operator needs fast, direct confirmation of fluid level status. Typical applications include hydraulic power units, industrial gearboxes, lubrication reservoirs, processing equipment, and automated machinery. Its electrical NC sensor function helps support monitoring routines by allowing integration with control systems.
Why A4 Stainless Steel and FKM Matter
A4 stainless steel is preferred in environments where corrosion resistance is a priority. When combined with FKM seals, the product becomes more reliable in contact with oils, glycol-based fluids, cleaning substances, and elevated operating temperatures. This makes the HCK.127-A4-M12-FKM-PC-P-80-NC-KN a practical choice for facilities focused on uptime and preventive maintenance.

Frequently Asked Questions
What does the Elesa+Ganter 113735-KN identify?
It identifies a column level indicator from the HCK.127 series with A4 stainless steel hardware, M12 connection, FKM sealing, PC transparent tube, 80°C sensor specification, and normally closed contact structure.
Is this product only for hydraulic oil?
No. It is commonly used for hydraulic oil, but it may also be suitable for compatible industrial fluids depending on temperature, pressure, and chemical conditions. Actual fluid compatibility should always be checked before installation.
What is the benefit of the NC sensor?
A normally closed sensor can be integrated into monitoring systems to support operational safety. It helps machine builders create warning or control logic when a defined temperature or level-related condition is reached.
Why is FKM preferred in this model?
FKM is valued for its resistance to oils, heat, and many chemicals. In level indicators, it helps maintain sealing stability and reduces the risk of leakage in demanding operating conditions.
Can the PC tube withstand industrial use?
Yes. Polycarbonate is selected because it offers transparency, impact resistance, and good mechanical strength. It allows operators to see the fluid level clearly while maintaining a durable structure.
