| We have some PCB�s in our warehouse in Manaus - Brazil. They are stored for more than 2 years , in a condition of 25 degrees centigrades and a humidity ranging from 60% to 90%. | Do these conditions cause the PCB�s to deteriorate over time? If so ,

Hi Martin, I found the Amistar very easy to program and operate, but I recommend using a PC link ( PROCOMM )for data up and download. Despite the age of the machine, Amistar was extremly helpful in telephone support. We purchased some additional man

| Also the preheating of the board is done to help evaporate any water/alcohol that is in the flux - water is a big problem in No-clean processes. From our experience, a temp range around 200f - no more than 220f is ideal for the bigger boards, but t

Upinder, Using IPA does not cause the residue, it simply exposes it. Given that all fluxes leave reisdues, it follows that these MUST be benign - but how do you know, and how do you control it. You are using flux to remove oxides and give you a go

Dave, The first step would be to learn to accept the residue. IPC class 2 has no problem with it. If that is not possible, I am not sure why a no clean is necessary- but I will take your work for it. Alcohols will dry out the residue, and turn it

Steve: I thought Kyzen products were "additives" to either aqueous or semiaqueous inline or batch machine cleaning processes. I'm trying to clean the no-clean residue from a few components that can not bear to see water. Can you use Kyzen products

| *Reply to: ericr@nj.tanon.com | | Without going into a lengthy explaination {at this time}, has anyone experimented, tested, evaluate, and/or 'perfected' an SMT double-side reflow process. Presently I'm using a Kester R593 OA (water soluble) Sn63/
