Prolly the worst. I'm sure it depends on who you get, but Cali not only looks for things that affect the waste stream, but will report on things not up to code, and the biggest being they look for earthquakes violations.

There should be no problem. Recognize that the residue of some low residue fluxes turn a milky-white color when you wash them. This could freak your quality people.

Thanks for the input! We are doing a few protos this week and we will see how they go!

Mixing No-clean and water soluble processes

I apologize for being so vague. It is a standard leaded process using ALPHA OM-5100 for the SMT. So would a reduction in wash temp result in less white residue?

Agree with what has been said so far. Check with your end customer and make sure the white haze appearance of the board will be acceptable. You will never get the board to look like it did before you started. It may be clean but it won't look like t

60° C). Moreover (by IPC standard)... "White residues resulting from no-clean or other processes are acceptable provided the residues from chemistries used have been qualified and documented as benign...". So, use an EDX or IC analysis in order to

Sorry, but I don't know this brand. Anyway pay attention, because if the chemistry is resin based, is difficult to clean and the residuals may be hygroscopic. So, I only can suggest you to read the data sheet and follow the instructions by the solder

We use the OM-5100 and wash it with relatively good results. Just dont let it sit longer than a few days before wash. We've used Zestron AC200 and A-250 in a batch cleaner set to 140 wash temp for 8-10 min @ the recommended concentrations. We have h

That's like asking the IRS to do your taxes for ya. Once they're in your building, they will not leave until they go thru top to bottom. Remember, EPA Field Investigators are "supposed" to find things wrong. They may not find any thing wrong with

About use of water washable pastes and fluxes

Electronics Forum | Wed Jan 05 05:12:04 EST 2005 | sasha

We wand to start using of water-washing-off pastes and fluxes. In the technology of cleaning supersonic cleaning + deionized water at finish will be applied. Hence there are some questions: 1. Is it enough to use only water while cleaning or i
