Elesa+Ganter 114061-KN Electric Oil Level Indicator for Controlled Fluid Monitoring
Product Overview
The Elesa+Ganter 114061-KN electric oil level indicator, coded as HCK.176-ZN-M12-NBR-GL-P-E-NC-80-NC-KN, is a HCK.176 series column-type indicator developed for hydraulic oil level observation and electrical status signalling. It is built for applications where visual inspection alone is not enough and a control signal is also required.
The key identification phrase Elesa+Ganter 114061-KN electric oil level indicator helps maintenance teams, buyers and engineers reference the exact model during technical comparison or spare part replacement.
Technical Design
The 176 mm configuration gives the indicator a practical reading length for industrial reservoirs. The ZN section refers to zinc-plated steel fixing parts, while M12 indicates the mounting thread. NBR sealing supports use with oil-based fluids, and the GL glass tube provides a clear view of the liquid column. The P protection element helps shield the tube during daily operation.
This model uses E-NC level contact logic and 80-NC temperature contact logic. In practical terms, normally closed contacts are often selected where the control system is designed to monitor continuity and detect a change when the defined level or temperature condition occurs.
Elesa+Ganter 114061-KN Best-Fit Applications
Typical use cases include hydraulic power packs, industrial machine reservoirs, lubrication units, forming machines, automated production equipment and maintenance-critical fluid systems. The KN suffix identifies this specific ordering version within the same technical family.

Why This Model Is Useful
Oil level and temperature are two of the most important indicators of hydraulic system health. When either value moves outside the expected range, equipment efficiency and component life may be affected. This model gives technicians a direct visual reference and allows electrical integration into machine controls.
Frequently Asked Questions
What is the difference between 114061 and 114061-KN?
Both are based on the same HCK.176 NC level and 80°C NC temperature concept. The KN suffix identifies a specific order version of the product.
Is Elesa+Ganter 114061-KN suitable for oil reservoirs?
Yes. Its NBR sealing and HCK.176 construction make it suitable for many oil reservoir and hydraulic tank applications.
What does E-NC mean?
E-NC indicates an electrical level sensor with normally closed contact logic.
What does 80-NC mean?
It identifies the 80°C temperature contact with normally closed logic.
Can this product support preventive maintenance?
Yes. By combining visual inspection and electrical signalling, it helps operators detect level or temperature-related issues before they lead to more serious machine problems.
