Elesa+Ganter 114005 HCK.176 NO Oil Level Indicator

The Elesa+Ganter 114005 oil level indicator, model HCK.176-ZN-M12-NBR-PC-P-80-NO, is a column type electrical oil level indicator made for industrial reservoirs, hydraulic tanks, and lubrication systems. Its key distinction is the NO contact configuration, which means normally open electrical signal logic.

Technical Features

This HCK.176 model uses a 176 mm fixing hole centre distance, M12 connection, zinc-plated steel fastening components, NBR sealing, and a transparent PC level tube. The P version includes a protected front structure, helping defend the level column from accidental contact or impact in machine environments.

NO Contact Function

The normally open contact is selected when the electrical circuit is designed to close only after a defined level condition is reached. This makes the Elesa+Ganter 114005 HCK.176 NO oil level indicator suitable for systems where the control panel, PLC, or alarm circuit expects a normally open signal logic.

Application Areas

This model can be used on hydraulic power packs, oil circulation systems, production machines, industrial presses, and lubrication reservoirs. The visual tube allows operators to confirm the level directly, while the electrical function supports automated monitoring. This dual approach helps create a more dependable maintenance workflow.

What does NO mean?

NO means normally open. The contact closes only when the designed switching condition occurs.

How is it different from NC versions?

NC versions are normally closed during standard conditions, while this NO version starts with an open circuit depending on system logic.

Why choose the P version?

The P version is preferred where the level indicator may need extra front protection in an industrial operating area.
