Elesa+Ganter 114275 HCK.176-SST-M12-NBR-PC-P-80-NO Oil Level Indicator

The Elesa+Ganter 114275 HCK.176-SST-M12-NBR-PC-P-80-NO oil level indicator is designed for visual oil level monitoring in hydraulic tanks, lubrication units, industrial machinery and maintenance-focused fluid systems. Its 176 mm hole centre distance makes it suitable for medium-sized reservoirs where operators need a clear, practical view of the liquid level without opening the tank.

Technical Structure and Material Design

This model belongs to the HCK column level indicator family. The HCK.176 designation refers to the 176 mm mounting centre distance, while the M12 specification indicates the connection size used for installation. The SST code points to stainless steel fastening elements, supporting durability in demanding industrial environments where moisture, oil mist or corrosion risk may be present.

The PC section identifies the polycarbonate level window, selected for its clear visibility and impact-resistant character. The P code means that the indicator includes a removable transparent front protection, useful in areas where accidental contact, vibration or routine cleaning may occur. NBR sealing components help maintain reliable sealing performance in oil-based applications.

80°C Normally Open Temperature Function

The 80-NO part of the code defines a maximum temperature sensor with a normally open contact at 80°C. In practical terms, this allows the unit to support electrical signalling when the oil temperature reaches the defined threshold. For maintenance teams, this can help identify overheating conditions before they develop into component wear, oil degradation or hydraulic performance issues.

Where This Model Is Commonly Used

The Elesa+Ganter 114275 HCK.176-SST-M12-NBR-PC-P-80-NO oil level indicator is especially relevant for hydraulic power packs, oil reservoirs, presses, lubrication systems, machine tools and production equipment. Its combined visual and temperature-monitoring function makes it suitable for systems where both level awareness and thermal protection matter.
