Elesa+Ganter 114049 HCK-S Oil Level Indicator with PT100 Probe
The Elesa+Ganter 114049 column oil level indicator, identified as HCK.176-ZN-M12-NBR-GL-P-STL, is a technical monitoring component for industrial reservoirs where oil level visibility and temperature measurement are both important. This model belongs to the HCK-S range and is typically selected for hydraulic systems, lubrication circuits, and machine reservoirs.
Product Type and Main Construction
As an HCK-S oil level indicator, this component combines a transparent level tube with an electrical temperature probe. It uses a 176 mm fixing distance, M12 thread connection, galvanized steel fastening hardware, NBR sealing, and a borosilicate glass tube. The PT100 temperature electrical probe gives operators a practical way to track fluid temperature trends in industrial equipment.
Material and Design Benefits
The mounting ends are based on glass-fibre reinforced polyamide technopolymer, while the support is aluminium in natural colour. The white graduated contrast screen improves level readability and helps technicians interpret the fluid level during inspection. This is especially useful in machine areas where lighting or viewing angle may not be ideal.
Industrial Application Context
The Elesa+Ganter 114049 HCK-S oil level indicator is suitable for equipment where oil level must be checked visually, while temperature data is also required for process awareness. Hydraulic power packs, production machines, cooling-related reservoirs, and lubrication units can benefit from this combined monitoring approach.
Why PT100 Temperature Monitoring Is Valuable
A PT100 probe is commonly used where consistent temperature measurement is needed. In oil systems, temperature changes can indicate operating stress, viscosity shifts, cooling issues, or abnormal machine conditions. This makes the indicator useful not only for daily checks but also for planned maintenance.
