Oven keeps building up debri in cooling plates and flux system seems not very good. would preferr less maintance,no time. know of any work arounds.Oven is Paragon series.

If you have flux deposits on the cooling plates, try out Zestron's VIGON RC101...It is an extremely good product especially for reflow ovens and wave solder systems. Check it out...Minimal maintenance water based chemistry with no flash point...Much

Is the oven air or nitrogen? If it is air I would suggest more exhuast to pull the flux vapors out if the oven before they can condense in the cooling. If it is a nitrogn machine that makes it a little more complicated. If the filter system is clogge

Just curious if anyone has had any problems because of using acetone to clean flux off boards or parts. Is acetone an acceptable flux remover for re-work? What are the pros and cons about using acetone Thanks in advance, JD

Acetone is likely not compatible with several component types, the evaporation charactoristics are desirable. IPA is more compatible, though, may not solubilize the residues. Austin American Technology developed MegaSolv JB and MegaSolv NOC for the

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

we noticed Electroytic caps (Rubber plug), standoffs, and most of the plastic and rubber parts were effected and started to break down. I do not know id the mask material is effected or what residue is left behind ....as we never made it past the 1s

Out of curiosity, what method did you use? I ask because I have used acetone on a Q-Tip to clean up boards after rework for some time and haven't noticed anything like that. Did you notice it right away? Or after some time went by? I may need to re-

Echoing SheanDalton's comments [above in this thread]: * A good way to strip part markings, solder mask, etc. * A fairly aggressive against most polymers. * A flammable material. * VOC issues in its use. * Assembly workers don't like the smell. * A
