Elesa+Ganter 113781 HCK.127 Electrical Level Indicator

The Elesa+Ganter 113781 electrical level indicator, coded as HCK.127-SST316-M12-FKM-GL-P-STL, is a robust industrial component used for monitoring fluid levels in hydraulic tanks and machinery reservoirs. This model belongs to the HCK.127 range and combines visual level control with a sensor-ready electrical configuration.

The SST316 designation is one of the most important technical points of this product. It indicates the use of AISI 316 stainless steel connection elements, which are preferred in environments where corrosion resistance is a priority. This makes the model suitable for machinery exposed to humidity, washdown conditions, cooling fluids, or demanding industrial atmospheres.

Technical Highlights

The product includes an M12 connection, FKM sealing material, and a GL transparent level window. FKM is selected for applications where higher temperature resistance and improved chemical durability are needed compared with standard elastomers. The GL execution supports use with oil and water/glycol-based fluids, depending on the final working conditions.

The STL configuration refers to an electrical level monitoring version. This allows the level indicator to provide more than visual feedback, helping operators integrate level status into maintenance logic, alarms, or control panels. For machines where low fluid level can damage pumps or interrupt production, this function is highly valuable.

Industrial Use Cases

The Elesa+Ganter 113781 HCK.127 electrical level indicator is suitable for hydraulic power units, injection moulding machines, industrial presses, lubrication systems, and automated equipment. In these systems, stable oil level is directly connected to machine performance, thermal balance, and component service life.

Elesa+Ganter 113781 Frequently Asked Questions

What is the Elesa+Ganter 113781 used for?

It is used to monitor hydraulic fluid level visually and electrically in industrial reservoirs.

What is the benefit of SST316?

SST316 provides improved corrosion resistance. It is especially useful in harsh or humid environments where standard steel may not provide enough long-term durability.

Why is FKM important?

FKM sealing supports higher temperature resistance and better compatibility with many industrial fluids. It is often selected when standard NBR seals may not be sufficient.

What does GL mean?

GL refers to a transparent level window execution suitable for oil and water/glycol-based solutions, subject to application compatibility checks.

Is this model only for hydraulic oil?

Hydraulic oil is a common application, but other compatible fluids may be possible. The actual fluid, concentration, pressure, and temperature must be evaluated before installation.
