2.2 Programming and modifying the Soldering Profiles 

 

Your 

CONDENS- IT

 

Profiler

 reflow soldering machine is from the factory pre-programmed for use with Galden 

230

 lead-free applications. 

If you have ordered the machine for for lead containing solder alloys, the machine is pre-programmed for Galden 

200 

or Galden 

210

 
• 

The "default" Preheat heater temperature

 is set to: 

150 °c (

Galden 

230

 lead-free applications) 

 

• 

Preheat heating "Default Time”

 is set to: 30 seconds (Galden 

230

 lead-free applications) 

 

• "

Default boiling Time” TAL

 "Time Above Liquid" is set to: 30 seconds.  

 

• "

Default value"

 AntiTomb menu  (not activated) and is set to 0 Sec but you can 

   activate it by changing the time span  from 0 Seconds to for example into 30 seconds  
 

• 

"Default value"

 of the tomb Temp + 200 ° C 

(for lead-free application)

 

  "Default value"

 of the tomb Temp + 160 ° C 

(for leaded applications 

                                   

 

2.3 OPERATING & PROGRAMMING THE MACHINE

 

Power up the Machine by activating the Black Switch on the left side at  front of the machine 

The 

Blue LED 

under the  main power switch will be 

illuminated

 now! 

On the display appears : 

IMDES CREATIVE SOLUITIONS 

Copy right Paul Keizer Ver. 1.15   

(or an other  Ver. = Version release No.)

 

 
 
When pressing the 

green key

, the soldering process starts with the last saved profile in Eeprom and starts to 

warm up the machine to go through the entire solder and cooling process. 

If you want to have a different solder profile. 

You need to 

press the RED key!

 

Then appears in the display 

Galden boiling point = (boiling point Galden) 

PLEASE NOTE!!! 

This will be  determined by the type of Galden you want to use:

 

 

LS 200 

Maximum solder temperature 200°C                  

for lead containing solder alloys  

LS 210 

Maximum solder temperature 210°C                  

for lead containing solder alloys  

LS 215 

Maximum solder temperature 215°C                  

for lead containing solder alloys  

LS 230 

Maximum solder temperature 230°C                  

for lead free solder (SnCuAg)     

XS 235 

Maximum solder temperature 235°C                  

for lead free solder (z.B. Sn100C,SnCu) 

HS 240

  Maximum solder temperature 240°C 

for lead free solder (z.B. SnCu) 

HS 260 

Maximum solder temperature 260°C 

for lead free solder (special lead free product) 

 
2.4  Attention

!

 

If you have entered the new values, you want in the menu, you 

must 

press 

the

 

green

 

and 

red key 

simultaneously

 to confirm and entering in to the next menu.

 

 

If you 

do not want to change anything in a 

menu,

 

you must 

also

 

press 

the green

 

and 

red key

 

simultaneously

 to skip and entering into the next menu. 

 

The last saved values in the EEPROM are indicated in the display.  

For example:
