I've recently been placed in control of operations of our SCS conformal coat sprayer and I must eliminate problems with wicking of humiseal 1b73 into surface mount connectors while also trying to minimize masking as much as possible. We use a 55:45

Here is a posting by P Kinner at Humiseal ... Typically, there are three main approaches to avoid coating wicking into press-fit connectors (and other keep out areas). Wicking is a phenomenon caused by a combination of low viscosity of conformal coa

I looked at the tech data for the coating. It appears to need an explosion proof oven for curing (flammable vapors from solvent). I doubt the Heller reflow is explosion proof type oven.

Hello, Curious to know if anyone has had some experience converting a Heller reflow oven to Cure 1B73 Coating material. Please share experience and process parameters to help obtain cure to conformal coated boards. TIA!!!

I have found that depressurizing the tanks when the machine is not in use reduces bubbles.

Update on 1B73 bubbles, Changed over to a mixture of Humiseal 73 thinner with coating (25 sec on Zahn 2) observed a reduction in bubble formation (approx. 20%) but still present.

Have you always used xylene? For our 1B73 we use nothing but 73 thinner from Humiseal or PGMEA at about 50/50 depending on the humidity.

Hey all, we will be starting to coat our PCB's soon. I am looking for info on what type of UV light is needed to inspect the boards. We will be using Humiseal 1B73 Acrylic coating. TIA, JD

I have boards coated with Humiseal 1B73. At a late point mfg. site we need to remove a series of 0603 resistors for optioning purposes. I have been trying to determine the fastest, easiest way to re-coat the pads after removal. Drying time of the coa

If I assume you running a selective coating machine ? Maybe you have small leak and system is sucking in air creating bubbles in mixture, like a sort of venturi action, just idea, can be a faulty fitting , elbow etc. Have had this before....
