Ashok, It is most likely not the DI water that is attacking the aluminum rather it is the saponifier. DI water is only in contact with the parts for a relatively short time. If your cleaning process provides for a rapid drying cycle, you should be

Hi Steve, The Windows 98 version of the SMT800-LD software provides for two levels of password protection. One for general use (creating, editing, deleting programs), and the other for maintenance functions (individual device control, machine confi

Dreamy, OA fluxes / pastes have differing levels of activity. Most OA fluxes must be cleaned very soon after reflow. OA fluxes and pastes, while offering an aggressive flux package and a relatively easy removal (solubility in water), they are the

Hi -K We are a manufacturer of ionic contamination testers (not yours). In most cases, automatic mode is appropriate. In some instances however, you may need extra time to �release� entrapped contamination from the sample. Automatic mode is not a

You state that you need a washer for �pcb washer/cleaner for misprints etc� Is it only for misprints or is it also for post-reflow de-fluxing? I would not suggest that you utilize one machine for both applications. Misprints should always be cle

Regarding the reference (Patrick) to a previous thread promoting �no-residue� fluxes, I must say that there is absolutely no such thing as �No-Residue� flux. There are �Low-Residue� fluxes and even �Very-Low� residue fluxes but to suggest that there

Flashback time� Vapor degreasers, although still used in limited applications, no longer represent the conventional wisdom (due to multiple environmental issues). Aqueous-based technologies are the most common method of defluxing. Unlike most va
