Elesa+Ganter 114003 Electrical Oil Level Indicator
The Elesa+Ganter 114003 electrical oil level indicator, model HCK.176-ZN-M12-NBR-PC-P-80-NC, is designed for clear visual oil level monitoring in hydraulic tanks, lubrication units, reservoirs, and industrial fluid systems. Its HCK.176 format refers to a 176 mm fixing hole centre distance, making it suitable for machinery where a longer visible reading range is required.
Technical Overview
This version uses zinc-plated steel fastening elements, an M12 screw connection, NBR sealing, and a transparent polycarbonate level tube. The “P” structure indicates a protected front design, which helps shield the viewing column from accidental impact in demanding industrial areas. The NC contact configuration supports normally closed level signal logic, while the 80°C specification makes it suitable for systems where temperature monitoring is part of the operating condition.
Where It Is Used
Operators commonly use this type of oil level indicator on hydraulic power packs, machine tools, industrial presses, gearboxes, and centralized lubrication equipment. The transparent PC tube allows the oil level to be checked without opening the tank, helping reduce contamination risk and supporting planned maintenance routines.
Why This Model Matters
The Elesa+Ganter 114003 HCK.176 electrical oil level indicator combines a mechanical sight level function with an electrical NC signal. This is useful when a machine must not rely only on visual inspection. If the monitored level reaches the sensor threshold, the control system can receive a signal and react according to the machine design.

Elesa+Ganter 114003 FAQ
What is the Elesa+Ganter 114003 used for?
It is used to monitor oil level in reservoirs and hydraulic systems through a visible column, while also supporting electrical level control with a normally closed contact.
What does HCK.176 mean?
HCK identifies the column level indicator series, while 176 refers to the 176 mm fixing hole centre distance.
What does NC mean in this model?
NC means normally closed contact. It is selected when the control circuit is designed to work with a closed signal under normal level conditions.
Is the PC tube suitable for oil?
Yes. The PC transparent tube is intended for oil level visibility in compatible industrial applications.
