I am most familiar with Heller (10 yrs. of 1088 4 zone - 1800 8 zone ovens) and find them to be very reliable. Other Manufacturers may have five zone ovens on the used market. (I used Petlock as an example because you could get data sheets/specs from

Heller 1500 Convection Reflow Ovens are a five zone upper/lower reflow oven. Petlock currently has two listed with specs and pictures. Here's a link for more info. NOTE: I do not work or have any affiliation with PETLOCK http://www.petlock.com/used

Greg: Heller 988s are good, solid, basic reflow machines that will turn paste liquid for 85-90% of all applications. I'm not sure what you mean by "is it comperable to the larger heller with a slower rate?" But, yes it will need to be run slower t

We have been using a Heller 1707EXL (7 zones + 1 cooldown zone) for lead free (ROHS) soldering since 2007 with good results. I wouldn't go any lower than 7 heat zones though. If I may brag a bit....The IPC-7095 revision C standard was released a fe

I would reccomend at least a 8 zone system when doing RoHs. Most of the better systems (Vitronics, heller, BTU, ETC) built since 2006 should be able to run the higher temps for Pb Free. Should be a lot of them on the market world wide (used) with l

I use a lead free 3 zone essemtec oven which I love. It's on the smaller side (wish it was even smaller). It works fine in our application. Maximum width is 300mm and only uses 5-6kwh average (25A max). Made in Switzerland. For some reason I don

Not to turn this into a used equipment war but I have a Heller 1088 4 zone i could sell for $4K in a month or so. We just got in a new BTU Pyramax98 and will soon have no use for the Heller....

A few random thoughts: Nitrogen in reflow is mostly cosmetic, to get shiny joints on lead free. If you are getting good results without nitrogen now, there's no need to add it on your new line. Since power consumption is important, I would get spec
