ELESA+GANTER 114279-KN HCK.176-SST-M12-NBR-PC-P-E-NO-KN Oil Level Indicator

The ELESA+GANTER 114279-KN oil level indicator is an industrial monitoring component designed for oil reservoirs, lubrication tanks and hydraulic machinery. The full configuration, HCK.176-SST-M12-NBR-PC-P-E-NO-KN, combines a protected visual level column with a normally open electrical contact system.

Visual and Electrical Monitoring

This model supports both direct visual inspection and electrical monitoring integration. The transparent polycarbonate tube enables operators to observe the oil level during machine operation, while the E-NO electrical contact allows automated warning or signal functionality.

Normally open contacts are commonly used in machine safety and maintenance systems where the circuit activates only under specified operating conditions.

Construction and Durability

The stainless steel fastening hardware improves resistance against humidity, oil exposure and industrial cleaning conditions. NBR sealing elements support stable performance in mineral oil applications. The front protection panel reduces accidental impact exposure around the transparent column.

Industrial Usage

The ELESA+GANTER 114279-KN HCK.176-SST-M12-NBR-PC-P-E-NO-KN oil level indicator is suitable for automated hydraulic systems, industrial reservoirs and lubrication monitoring stations where electrical level detection is beneficial.

FAQ

What is the advantage of a normally open contact?

A normally open contact can support alarm systems or monitoring circuits that activate when the oil reaches a specific level condition.

Why is stainless steel hardware used?

Stainless steel components improve long-term durability and resistance to industrial corrosion.

Can this indicator be used in automated machinery?

Yes. The electrical contact configuration makes it suitable for automated monitoring systems.

What does the P configuration represent?

The P version includes transparent front protection for the level tube.

Is the level tube transparent?

Yes. The polycarbonate tube allows direct visual observation of the fluid level.
