I'm a user changing over from WS-609 to WS-709. WS-709 has less voiding problem and longer stencil life than WS-609. Ws-709 has a less foaming during washing process. Thanks, Myu

I am also interested in anyones obervations. I am most interested in anyone changing over from ws-609 to ws-709. I have read the technical information but I am most interested in hearing from a user.... Thanks, Kevin

Sorry davef. I was not being clear. PCBAs came out cold soldered after being reflowed the first time with ALPHA WS-820. The flux gel ALPHA WS 609 was supposed to be applied only onto the terminations of caps where ALPHA WS-820 was for a second refl

we are using solder paste WS609 and OM5100.Relow oven: forced convection type. For WS609 and OM5100, straight ramp up profile is suitable for low to medium thermal mass assemblies and preheating may be required for high thermal mass assemblies. How

Just what is delaminationg during testing? Water washing should be sufficient to clean WS609. On the other hand, it's possible you're conveyor speed is too high to do a good job cleaning the high density areas. What kind of testing have you done to

Does anyone have any information or experience soldering of class 3 products with WS fluxes. We are currently leaning toward Alpha WS609 flux, however the customer's interpretation of J-Std-001C feels that type 'H' fluxes (WS) are not allowed. Any

We too had a problem with the WS609. We have since switched to Alpha's WS619 (same formula with an anti-foaming agent) This really helped but we still monitor flux application and try to minimize wherever possible. Chris

Dave F....BOGUS BOGUS BOGUS What compatability issue could there possibly be if the flux is removed during wash???? Why on EARTH would you leave ANY WS flux residue on the board? A recipie for disaster! Beef up the cleaning process, test for contami
