You have a lot to think about! What does the flux manufacturer recommend as far as specifics like water temp or pressure? Do they recommend high temp di-water a detergent or saponifier? Do you currently have a cleaning machine, batch cleaner or inl

Hello. I would like to know the difference (if any) between water soluble flux and test socket cleaners (e.g. for Burn-In Board test sockets). As far as I know, they both remove oxides (tin & copper) with an activator, solvent and surfactants. Tha

Does anyone know of any industry guidelines for the exhausting of volatiles in reflow ovens? I've seen some numbers like 1,000ppm for the oven atmosphere, but is this typical? My concern is the volatiles in my WS629 solder paste may be attacking th

No clean flux is really a misnomer. What is often taken to mean no residue in effect means no visible residue. Because you can't see it doesn't mean it isn't here. Many manufacturers have been through this same learning curve. The goal with a no clea

I guess you're adding the gas to keep the fingers clean - sounds likeyou got your threads mixed up on the Forum. Any way I would suggest not doing this. Gas is pretty flammable. I have pix of one our Hollis cleaning machines going up in flames cau

I am currently building boards which have to be conformal coated (done by an outside source) in a no clean process. The conformal coating however, must be applied to a clean surface. The flux residue left from the paste has come into question. I h

The environment of a burn-in chamber is specific. That environment has a fairly well defined affect on the metal contacts of a burn-in socket. Test socket cleaners are tailored for those specific requirements. Look at the MSDS for the WS flux and th
