Hi 'K', We manufacture both batch and inline defluxing equipment so we have no axe to grind with either technology. There are pros and cons associated with both technologies under specific conditions. Batch machines are typically good cleaners but

| We are anticipating switching from RMA to OA flux for both reflow and wavesolder in the next few months. If you use a batch cleaner running DI water only I would like to hear your experiences. How is it for cleaning under low standoff components

When cleaning water washable flux from PCBs using U/S, the final rinse can be with spray DI water for aesthetic purposes because the wash cycle is really just a long U/S rinse (no added chemistry). Fresh DI water should be continuously added to fresh

I did have my solder analyzed and it is clean. The Hollis preheat coils are a bit hard to control but I have measured the board top side and I am getting a temp of 105c just before wave contact. I would like to move to a spray fluxer but I am going
