HOSS, Most spray fluxers won't help. If you get a spray fluxer that uses a high velocity spray gun, it might. That being said I had less problems with top side wetting from a foam fluxer myself. Make sure the foam height is good. Also had some pr

I have found that preheating the solder pallets prior to use helps cut down on the solder balling. Also, we do not cool the pallets between passes and we use a spray fluxer because a hot pallet will knock down the head on a foam fluxer. We use WS f

I have inherited a SonoFlux 9500 spray fluxer. It appears to have never been used and was build in 1999. It is missing the nozzle and a couple of other parts. Would it be worth it to get this thing up and running to replace a foam fluxer? Does an

Looking at the original post, it seems that the white residue is formed on the board after wave soldering and becomes evident when it has been left standing for a while. From what I understand, it seems that the solids content of the "no clean" flux

Thanks for cutting me some slack on that metric thang, pardner. ;-) ANALYSIS: What??? The 5DX is useful for something!!! Shut ma mouth!!! [Don't you say a thing. I think I know what you're thinking.] FOAM FLUXERS: Your correct, not having a fo

Hi James, the problem is, it�s not gonna work with foam fluxers. The problem with preheating didn�t occur to me, I got it to the desired limits using pallets. This might depend on the abilities of the used machine. If it�s working with your sprayflux

One thing I've found that will create that white residue is when moisture comes in contact with that flux. 1. Verify that you are not introducing any moisture with the compressed air supply at the foam fluxer. 2. Replace the flux and clean the flu

We do allot of multi layer boards with heavy ground planes or heat sinks attached. We have a Trieber, use RMA flux, solder pot temp at 500F, foam fluxer, spray the top if need be, and would warm up the PWB to around 240F over the preheaters. We have

Hello does anyone have a schematic or service manual on setting up a foam fluxer on the 650C wavesolder machine. I am concerned with the two pumps in the rear of the machine what are the connection for on the pumps. I do have the manuals, but they do

Hi all, There are no ground layers which makes the non wetting rate a bit confounding. The foam fluxer has not been cleaned in a while though, while there is a strong evidence of fluxing by running blank paper and looking up the top side
