VARIO 2
Functional description
6.3.9
Energy
This function enables the user to influence the regulating behavior of
the station, whereby the heating and after heating characteristic of the
station can be adapted to the actual application. Three settings [high],
[med.], and [low] are possible for i‑TOOL, TECH TOOL, CHIP TOOL VARIO
and i‑TOOL AIR S. Due to their special control characteristics, all other
tools work with constant control parameters.
•
[Low]: Minimal after‑heating characteristic.
For soldering work with low heat requirements.
•
[Med.]: Stronger after‑heating characteristic.
For soldering work requiring more heat.
•
[High]: Maximal after‑heating characteristic.
For soldering work with high heat requirements.
6.3.10
Standby period
The standby period is the time from the last work with the soldering
tool to the point when the standby temperature is activated. For the
i-TOOL and the CHIP TOOL VARIO the adjustment range is 20 seconds to
60 minutes. With all other tools the adjustment range is 1 ... 60 minutes.
The input [0] deactivates the standby function (except i‑TOOL AIR S).
With small joints or very smoothly performed soldering work the standby times should
not be chosen too short, to make sure that the standby function will not lower the
temperature already during the soldering process!
As a measure to save energy and to prolong the lifetime of soldering tip and heating
element you can automatically trigger an idle state for the soldering tool. Read more
about this in the chapter 6.4.9 [Adjustable shut‑down function (idle state)].
6.3.11
Standby temperature
This is the soldering tip temperature during work breaks. It is
automatically activated after the [Standby time] has expired. Lowering
the temperature saves energy and prolongs the lifetime of tip and
heating body.
With the i‑TOOL and the CHIP TOOL VARIO reheating from standby temperature is
caused by movement, with the Tech‑Tool this is accomplished by short wiping with a
moist sponge, with other tools by pressing or turning the i‑OP (except i‑TOOL AIR S).
