Rob When the little light goes red, your supplier changes your ion beds. How does he determine when to change the carbon bed? Carbon certainly won't go bad as fast as the ion beds. Right?

Jake, The No-cleans on the market, to me, still aren't as good as OA and water wash. But they have gotten better. The type of No-Clean flux and paste to use really depends on each individual assembly, the machines used, settings, and the environme

Others make good points. Consider "TP-1115 - Selection & Implementation Strategy for A Low-Residue No-Clean Process" as a starting point. Remember that in-bound components and boards can be loaded with unNC res that can turn the best implemented

No-clean is definitely a cheaper process. It will eliminte cleaning. Some issues associated with no-clean are: -- the flux stain left behind on the PCB will create a cosmetic issue. You may want to seek advice from your customers. -- next, the flux
