Wes, I have been involved with many customers changing over from an alcohol based no-clean to a VOC-free process. The change-over can be made easier by such things as air movement, convection preheat, "drains" or reliefs in pallets (if used), contr

Hello Jeff, If you have components on your board be careful of how low the frequency is that you will be applying to your board. Ultrasonics are great for cleaning stencils and bare boards at around 40kHz. These frequencies (and Lower)may however

How does no-clean flux residues on a PCB assembly impact the ROSE testing? Does no-clean flux residues on the PCBA dissolve in solution of ROSE tester and increase ionic contaminants level in terms of NaCl per surface area? Is ROSE tester solution (a

Here are the scenarios: *No-Clean Flux & Foam Fluxer: alcohol is used as a thinner (for titration purposes) if your flux is alcohol-based *No-Clean Flux & Spray Fluxer: alchol is used only as a cleaning agent for your sprayhead.

What flux are you using? We use a low-solids No-Clean water-based flux. Maybe some of what you are seeing is not residue from the flux but is from reaction with the solder mask.

Good morning, What is considered "high frequency" ,.i.e. Mhz,GHz,etc., when we talk about possible issues with NO-clean flux residues and product's application? I appreciate your help on this... Have a good one! George

Graham: Maybe a twist on your comments, I don't believe that people understand the true cost of using no-clean. Dave

Casimir This is not an easy subject. How did you process the test pieces? Was the flux used correctly at the required and recommended level? Did it see the wave properly? I am not an advocate of no-clean but we do have customers who coat over no-cl

Dave You are so right about that point. I still use some cost models we ran up some 5 years ago. I took one to a customer and showed them that they could make $400K more PROFIT PER YEAR running OA v No-Clean. Their response? Well, we don't believe
