Elesa+Ganter 114271 Stainless Column Level Indicator
Elesa+Ganter 114271 column level indicator, listed as HCK.176-SST-M12-NBR-PC-P, is a visual fluid level indicator designed for hydraulic oil tanks, lubrication units and industrial machinery reservoirs. Unlike electrical contact versions, this model focuses on clear and direct level reading through a protected transparent column.
Stainless Steel Connection Design
The SST code identifies stainless steel fastening components. In the HCK configuration, this means AISI 303 stainless steel screws with AISI 304 stainless steel nuts and washers. This construction is useful in demanding environments where improved corrosion resistance is preferred over standard zinc-plated hardware.
176 mm HCK Format
The HCK.176 size means the indicator has a 176 mm hole centre distance. This dimension gives a balanced viewing range for compact and medium tank sizes. The M12 thread allows installation on common industrial tank layouts.
NBR Seal and Polycarbonate Tube
This model uses NBR synthetic rubber O-rings, suitable for many mineral oil applications up to the recommended temperature range. The PC code indicates a transparent polycarbonate tube, designed for oil level visibility. The P front protection adds a removable polycarbonate shield that helps protect the viewing area and supports cleaning during maintenance.
Best-Fit Applications
Elesa+Ganter 114271 column level indicator is a strong choice for hydraulic systems, oil reservoirs, lubrication equipment, machine tools and industrial maintenance points where a durable visual level indicator is required. For more information, visit the Elesa+Ganter product category.
