Elesa+Ganter 113739-KN HCK.127 Oil Level Indicator
What Is the Elesa+Ganter 113739-KN HCK.127 Oil Level Indicator?
The Elesa+Ganter 113739-KN oil level indicator is a technical column-style fluid level indicator designed for hydraulic tanks, lubrication units, and industrial oil reservoirs. Its full configuration, HCK.127-A4-M12-FKM-PC-P-STL-KN, indicates a 127 mm hole centre distance, M12 fixing thread, FKM sealing rings, a transparent polycarbonate tube, front protection, and an STL temperature probe configuration.
This model is especially useful where visual oil level monitoring and temperature feedback are required in one compact assembly. The HCK.127 format supports clear side visibility, helping maintenance teams check fluid condition without opening the reservoir.
Technical Construction and Materials
The indicator uses glass-fibre reinforced polyamide-based technopolymer assembly ends, a natural aluminium support, and a white lacquered aluminium contrast screen. The screen improves level readability and can be marked with custom level references before installation.
The FKM O-ring is suitable for applications requiring higher resistance than standard NBR seals. FKM is commonly selected for oil systems where temperature stability and chemical resistance are important. The PC tubular window is intended for oil-level visibility, while the removable front protection supports easier cleaning during maintenance.
Dimensions and Functional Features
For the HCK.127 size, the indicator has a 127 mm hole centre distance and M12 fixing. The visible level section is suitable for compact and mid-sized tanks where a clear inspection point is needed. The STL configuration refers to a PT100 temperature electrical probe, which helps convert temperature variation into a resistance signal for monitoring systems.
Because this is a technical component, installation should consider fluid type, tank pressure, working temperature, tightening torque, and electrical routing. The device should not be installed close to strong magnetic or electrical noise sources if temperature signal accuracy is important.
Where Is It Used?
The Elesa+Ganter 113739-KN HCK.127 oil level indicator is used in hydraulic power units, lubrication circuits, industrial machinery, process equipment, and maintenance-critical fluid reservoirs. It provides a simple visual check while supporting temperature measurement through the integrated probe configuration.
