Elesa+Ganter 114135-NP HCK.176-ZN-M12-FKM-PC-NP-80-NO Temperature Level Indicator

The Elesa+Ganter 114135-NP HCK.176-ZN-M12-FKM-PC-NP-80-NO temperature level indicator is engineered for industrial hydraulic systems requiring reliable oil level visibility and temperature monitoring in one compact component. This model belongs to the HCK series, widely used in machine construction, hydraulic power units and lubrication systems.

Industrial Design and Construction

This model features a transparent polycarbonate (PC) column that allows operators to visually monitor liquid levels directly from outside the reservoir. The zinc-plated metal connections improve corrosion resistance in industrial environments where humidity, oil exposure and continuous operation are common.

The M12 mounting configuration supports standardized installation across different hydraulic systems. In addition, the FKM sealing material provides strong resistance against oils, lubricants and elevated operating temperatures, making the unit suitable for demanding industrial conditions.

Integrated Temperature Monitoring

The 80-NO configuration includes a normally open temperature contact calibrated around 80°C. This allows the level indicator to support both visual inspection and thermal monitoring. When oil temperature reaches the defined threshold, the contact can trigger warning systems, alarms or machine safety functions.

Temperature supervision is especially important in hydraulic systems because overheating may reduce lubrication efficiency, increase seal wear and affect machine performance. Combining temperature and level monitoring in a single device helps reduce installation complexity.

Applications in Hydraulic Systems

The Elesa+Ganter 114135-NP temperature level indicator is commonly used in:

  • Hydraulic reservoirs
  • Industrial lubrication systems
  • Machine tools
  • Automation equipment
  • Oil circulation systems
  • Manufacturing machinery

Advantages of FKM Sealing Technology

FKM seals are preferred in industrial fluid systems due to their excellent resistance to oils, chemicals and heat. Compared with conventional sealing materials, FKM offers longer service life in aggressive environments and reduces maintenance frequency.
