Elesa+Ganter 114023 HCK.176 STL Oil Level Indicator
The Elesa+Ganter 114023 HCK.176 STL oil level indicator is a column-type level monitoring component for hydraulic reservoirs and industrial oil tanks. Its complete model code, HCK.176-ZN-M12-NBR-PC-P-E-NO-STL, identifies a 176 mm HCK column indicator with zinc-plated steel fixing hardware, M12 connection, NBR sealing, transparent polycarbonate tube, protective plate, electrical normally open level sensor and STL temperature-probe configuration.
Level and Temperature Awareness in One Assembly
Many hydraulic failures begin with two simple issues: low oil level and uncontrolled fluid temperature. This model helps operators observe the oil level visually while also supporting electrical monitoring. The STL configuration is especially relevant when the application requires attention to temperature-related conditions in addition to level status.
The NO contact logic means the sensor is normally open and changes state when the float activates the switching point. This makes the unit suitable for control circuits where a level event should trigger an alarm, signal lamp or machine input.
Construction Features
The transparent PC tube gives a direct visual reading of the fluid column. NBR sealing supports use with many oil-based hydraulic fluids. The protective plate helps shield the viewing area from external impact, which is valuable in workshops, production lines and mobile machine environments.
The Elesa+Ganter 114023 HCK.176 STL oil level indicator is commonly considered for hydraulic power packs, machine tools, lubrication reservoirs and industrial equipment where operators need a compact, readable and electrically connectable monitoring device.

Elesa+Ganter 114023 Frequently Asked Questions
What does STL mean in this model?
STL refers to the version associated with a temperature probe configuration, making the product suitable for applications where level and temperature-related monitoring are both important.
What is the product type of Elesa+Ganter 114023?
It is a column oil level indicator with electrical sensor functionality for hydraulic oil tanks and reservoirs.
What does NO sensor logic mean?
NO means normally open. The circuit remains open in its normal state and changes when the level condition activates the sensor.
Why is the transparent PC tube important?
It allows operators to check oil level quickly without opening the tank, reducing inspection time and contamination risk.
Where can this model be installed?
It can be installed on hydraulic tanks, lubrication systems, power units and industrial reservoirs where the mounting dimensions match the HCK.176 format.
