Sounds like a rosin flux. Is it sticky as well? Russ

okay so both the 2005 formulas from interflux are clear alchol based fluxes. Yellow res huh? In looking at the temps here, I would say you might be too hot at both preheat and solder temp. You may be burning flux. How long is dwell time over wave

Using no-clean flux going thru wave when comes out there is a bit of flux residue left on board. If wiped the residue shows a yellowish tint. Any ideas what this means how to get rid of it?

Using Interflux IF2005, Have electrovert as well as new Novastar Topside of board temp is 265F solder bath 275c. I assume applying via foam fluxer. Not sure.

We agree with Russ. Your topside should be 100 - 130*C. Your 265*F is at the top of the range. Look here: http://www.interflux-electronics.com/Products/Fluxes/IF%202005M/TD%20IF%202005M.pdf#search=%22Interflux%20IF%202005%22

Hi Steve, What type of flux? How do you apply it? What kind of wave? Rite off the cuff, I'd say you're applying too much flux, but without knowing a little more, it's tuff to say. It could even be board related. Hate to see what WML has to say

My operator applied flux gel ALPHA WS-609 on MG P/N FTH101XAP (CAP ALUM 100UF 50V 20% SMD) before aqueous washing the PCBAs. Solder paste used was ALPHA WS-820. Now the caps have yellow stains. Any solution to this is appreciated. Tks
