I know, it can be done and I participated in many acceptance tests, in which we counted even the milliseconds. However, my vision had a bit shifted, since the time the Motorola�s and Flextronic�s dumped all these high volume machines to the market. I

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

I'm not familiar with any "test socket cleaners", but I will tell you that water soluble flux is designed for a soldering application so it requires heat to activate. Not sure how effective it would be at removing oxides at room temperature. Second

Thank you caurbach. I'm actually not sure if they are cleaners specifically for test sockets or they are just generic PCB cleaners.

When carry out the contamination test,do we measure for Chlorides on water soluble and No-clean fluxes? 1) What is the equivalent factor for machines developed to test the board cleanliness, Omega-meter vs Ionograph vs Zero-ion. 2) What values do we

You should specify the level of res based on the effect of the res on the end-use of the product. J-STD-001 defines cleanliness requirements for ALL flux types, including water soluble and no-clean that you mention. 1 There is no equivalency betwee

Sure, the formulation and purpose of a soldering flux and a socket cleaner are basically the same. Off the top of my head, differences are: * Activation temperature: soldering flux [~200*C], socket cleaner [~120*F] * Compatibility with some solder
