I worked at one place where they had a dishwasher. They had stopped using it by the time I got there. But if they had kept using it I would have gotten a clean glass and put it in to see how clean it came out. I think after a while with only one tan

Edmund: Responding to your questions: 1 What is purpose of using DI water to wash a PCBA? Compared to tap water, DI water is less likely to leave: � Metal cations on sensitive components. � Salts of Ca, Mg, and other stuff on metals on the assemb

Can any pls enlighten me what is the purpose of using DI water during washing of PCBA. If the board is not wash using DI water , what will happe? What is the range of resitivity reading should be. Rdgs...

You have a lot to think about! What does the flux manufacturer recommend as far as specifics like water temp or pressure? Do they recommend high temp di-water a detergent or saponifier? Do you currently have a cleaning machine, batch cleaner or inl

Grant & JDumont: You should not have this white residue on your wave soldered connections, using VOC flux [but you know that, anyhow]. Applying too much flux is the likely cause. Other possibilities are: * flux contamination * solder contamination

If you can rub it off, it's unlikely to be a solder mask problem. Try the "excess flux, flux contamination, solder contamination" angle.

Deltawave flux pump continously runs while in run mode. After the pump there is a flux manifold distribution block. When switching between fluxes not all previous flux is purged or drained. When no clean is installed some cross contamination may occu

Patrick, When you say "no-residue" what exactly do you mean? Is there truely "no-residue" or is it "no visible residue"? What type of ionic contamination results have you experienced? If you take a bare board that measures 0.0 NaCl and reflow it

Hi Patrick, With all due respect, it is easy to quantify zero. You made a claim that your flux produces ZERO residue. There are several industry-standards (IPC and Military) of determining the cleanliness of post-reflowed circuit assemblies. Th

Hi, I would also be interested in this thread, but our problem has a different twist to it. We have good results from our reflow with Koki no clean paste, however when we pass the boards through the wave solder machine, the flux in that leaves a fog
