Which coolants can be used with HiLin?
One of the biggest advantages of magnetic versus optical encoders is that they can operate in harsh environments. With HiLin we have taken this to a higher level with a fully welded scale. If a customer’s application is in a harsh environment and struggles to perform optimally, HiLin with a fully welded scale is the right way to go. Both the scale and readhead have high IP protection and high resistance to various coolants that are widely used in industries.
If you are interested in using the HiLin encoder in a particular coolant, we can conduct tests to approve or reject the use of HiLin in that coolant. Please contact sales@rls.si for further information.
