We have under evaluation one of the dry cabinet and it can drop down the humidity to 10% within 20 minutes from room. You can check this web site, http://www.cabiusa.com Dason.

Mariss, I would run a power analyser on your oven to see the real power consumption during warm-up and during production. Then you would be better able to decide how much money to invest in a humidity controled cabinet big enough to contain your dail

In an oven over 100 C any moisture will escape through vents. There will not be huge volumes of moisture in the oven when you are baking components so it should easily escape through vents / holes in the system leaving you with a humidity of near zer

Emmanuel: Popcorn effect is mostly caused by entrapped moisture in the components package material. Plastic ICs are known for absorbing and storing moisture when exposed to normal factory conditions. They should be stored in an moisture reduced envir

Why not use a cabinet like those used for limiting the exposure of misture sensitive components to humidity?

Hi, it is not necessary to store MSDs in nitrogen to stop them absorbing moisture, just a dry environment. Nitrogen storage is good for storing devices for many years as it reduces the oxidation of the solderable surfaces. Best option for storing MSD

Hi, I've been supplying Totech dry cabinets in the Uk for 10 years and in that time I've realised the only places to find the correct MSL level is on the dry pack the devices are shipped in or by spending hours on the internet or speaking to the devi

Hi Krish, thanks for your detailed reply. Sorry I assumed you may be using a solder paste to solder the BGA to the pcb. Either solder paste or Gel flux is best for resoldering BGA to pcb. Are you using Gel flux ? Most popular long term storage for mo

We have used some sealed steel cabinets and a nitrogen generator (Balston 75-79 model) for about a dozen years with no issues at all. Humidity levels average 1% - 5%. We also just bought a couple of XDry (Totech) desiccant cabinets (XD2-1104-02) for

Humidity, Juliano? Try drying the boards pre solder; oven or dry storage cabinet. If this works, Eureka has good desiccant dry storage cabinets, http://www.atekllc.com. Shean Dalton www.fhpreps.com
