Although water soluble (OA) flux is technically the easiest flux to remove, it is also the most damaging type of flux if not removed. A dishwasher lacks the pressure and nozzle design to produce the very small water particle size required for thorou

Could you tell me what parts you used for the filter etc. This sounds like exactly what I need. Thank you, Frank Jachetta Multidyne

Hello all, We have received reports from two customers about electrical leakage on pcb assemblies that used Kester paste #HM531 (63/37) and washed with Kester 'Bio-kleen' saponifier and DI water. The leakage is such that when the boards receive power

the board in question is from Foba Laser Engraver, it's a surface contamination coming from.. everywhere, a lot of moving parts that are lubricated. I'm now studding chemicals that we may use for our kind of rework & cleaning. We may think of modifyi

We had a customer that had 5 BGA's top and 2 bottom and several other assemblies that had 4-7 total BGA's that required WS. Our average build quantity was 2200 boards a month. We used high end Maytag dishwashers and a little Amterge(SP?) Took them t

Let me see if I understand you correctly. You have a batch washer (looks like a dishwasher). There is a top and bottom spray fixture, which would normally spray water up at the board and down at the board being washed. When you place boards in t

Hey there Dave! We used to use a batch cleaner when we used water-clean paste. It was similar to a dishwasher, except that it had a digital menu for entering the number of wash cycles, water temp., amount of saponifier (we just used DI water),

Hi all, Only observation I would make is that it depends upon what you term as clean? Now isn't that an old thorny question. Care to comment? Regards Graham | Hey there Dave! | | We used to use a batch cleaner when we used water-clean paste.

Graham: I agree. Very thorny. What is clean?? And how is that controlled?? Back 25 or so years ago, soldering was done with high solids rosin fluxes. The issue with cleanliness was ionic contamination. The US military and others set a fairly a

| A question for you all! | | Back in the good old days, we didn't always know how clean was clean. Much has changed. Much hasn't. | | My question concerns cleaning under, through, and around tight spaces. Way back when, we could not clean under 20
