Not really. A new Electrovert AquaStorm 100, in-line machine, is under $60K, for straight aqueous applications. The batch type from Aqueous Tech are like $35K I believe. $120K would be for a high performance in-line machine, such as the AquaStorm 200

Good day all, we have an evaporator for our PCB washer that has been fine up until recently. Everytime we run it, it boils over and makes a HUGE mess of everything. Any suggestions as to why this could be happening? Is it possible the temp controller

J. Dumont, Did the problem start right after cleaning? If so, the temp sensor may have been damaged during cleaning. Jerry

I spoke with my rep from Kyzen and he told me they have issues with the 4512 chemistry. I drained the 4512 out and put in our old "soap" and do not see any problems. That must have been it. Thanks for all your suggestions.

Thanks for the suggestions...The unit was just cleaned last week and all the sludge was removed so that shouldnt be it. As for the concentration, im not sure. The only water that has gone into the evap is the rinse water. So im not sure if that could

Consider these three potential causes: 1) too much sludge - if the sludge builds up around or over the temperature sensor, then the sensor does not get an accurate reading. 2) too much chemistry in the evaporation solution - Check the temperature a

Dear J. Dumont, If the 4512's defoaming package is not active in the distillation process, then you may be dealing with foaming, which is exagerated at boiling point. The 4512's defoaming package may not be carried over in sufficient quantity from

Cross: IPC nor anyone else calls out recommended pressures for washers used to clean circuit boards. IPC and the other standards setting folk are in the business of defining the expected results or outputs of processes or acceptance criterion. They

The best method of cleaning misprinted boards is with a stencil cleaner. I would not recommend the use of a spray-in-air system for misprints. Spray systems can cause solder paste to become embedded into vias and under components (if double sided).
