I have just purchased an EMC CyberClean Series 1000 stencil cleaner(jet spray non-rinsing system). I will be using it to clean misprints, stencils, and residues off of completed prototype assemblies. We are strictly a no-clean process and was looki

I would recommend Zestron's Vigon SC200. It does not require a rinse as long as you cleaner is equipped with a wash solution filter to filter out the solids. Zestron # is (888) 999-9116. The toll-free # is frequently busy� If so, try (703) 589-11

We have begun using a PCB with Organic Surface Protectant. We normally run boards with non orgainic protectant. We can wash these boards with our ultrasonic cleaner using Zestron SC202 and a separate Hot/cold rinse system with an air knife. This r

I am a tool and process engineer responsible for the cleaning system at Siemens VDO in Huntsville, AL. I have been over this area for more than 8 years. We use EMC Cyberclean 3000RF spray in air cleaners with Zestron SC202 chemistry. At this facil

Hi Carol, Pressure requirements have changed over the past few years. In the recent past, aqueous cleaning systems relied on high flow, low pressure �flooding� techniques. 20 � 30 PSI pumped through large orifice nozzles. With ever increasing boa

Hi Jeff, Sean is correct. Although ultrasonic technology will work in post-reflow de-fluxing applications, you will receive concerns regarding ultrasonic �damage� to wire bonded components. Much has been written to combat this belief but the conce

First, I should state that my company manufacturers batch and inline de-fluxing systems. Because we manufacture both formats, we remain unbiased. In fact, it is in our best interest to recommend inline cleaners since they sell for considerably more

There are several manufacturers of batch-format de-fluxing systems. Here is a list of them: Aqueous Technologies http://www.aqueoustech.com (909) 944-7771 Batch and Inline UnitDesign http://www.unitdesign.com (714) 672-9944 Batch Austin American T
