Solder Flux Residues

Substrate: DC Power Supply

Contamination Challenge: Following a soldering process, solder flux residues and metallic oxides must be removed from the various soldered terminal surfaces.

Solution

Manual CO2 Composite Spray™ cleaning process and system.

  • Benchtop spray cleaning system with footswitch control
  • Single CO2 composite spray applicator – handgun style
  • Local exhaust plenum to remove contamination
  • Sprayed chip for x amount of time
Benefits
  1. 100% dry processing – Dry-In/Dry-Out
  2. Selective cleaning (contaminated terminals and adjacent surfaces)
  3. Low operational cost
