call me picky but doesn't hydrogen combust? maybe soemthing you could do is look at your process and your products and decide if you actually need to run in N2. Yes ok I can hear the crys now but seriously, for the vast majority of things if you have

Hello all, we use a reflow oven from Rehm in our SMT production. At the moment we solder under nitrogen atmosphere (approx. 500ppm). Now we want to reduce the nitrogen consumption (costs etc.). What consequences can occur here? Especially on the s

Hi all, We have an Omniflow 7 reflow oven that has not come with the nitrogen option. We are looking at fitting a nitrogen system to the oven, does anyone have nay knowledge that may help us? The cost of the nitrogen is nothing as we outgas enourmou

No problem running lead free without nitrogen. Careful profiling will take care of the soldering. Cosmetically, the Nitrogen reflow is superior for lead free, and we see much better wetting, better coverage of the PWB pads, and of course the smooth

Is it possible to run Pb-Free reflow without nitrogen?

Nitrogen in Reflow is grossly over-rated...., in my opinion, and in the opinion of several very well known SMT Industry "God Fathers". Way too much $$$, for a slight increase in the process window. If you profile your oven specifically for your pr

We using nitrogen only for Selective Solder machine, you don't need it for reflow oven, to improve solderability we use Vapor Fase oven.

All of our reflow is with room air, 63/37 and SAC305. I believe nitrogen will get you better looking solder joints (shiny, less grainy under magnification), but per IPC, functionality and strength I don't think there is much difference.

Currently I am running a very dense PCBA using a PCB less than 20 mils thick. We have two facilities running this product. One is using Nitrogen during reflow one is not. What is the advantage and disadvantages of using Nitrogen during the reflow

Hi everybody, I'm an engineering student and I'm looking for material about inert reflow (such as websites, papers ...). Please help me!
