Micron® 100W Soldering Station
TEMPORARY POWER DOWN MODE –
Note this function is not timer automated on this model. It can
only be activated and deactivated manually by the user when you press and hold the white button.
DETACHABLE AC POWER CORD:
The station has an integrated AC outlet with a replaceable fuse, to
support the AC power cord with plug and connector that are designed and approved for Australian
electrical safety requirements.
EARTH JACK:
A banana type grounding connector, is provided for grounding of an anti-static strap if
required (sold separately).
Product Description:
The high power T 2460A electronically temperature controlled soldering station with touchscreen
incorporates a special intelligent chip microcomputer control design was developed to meet the present
and future Lead-free soldering needs of the electronic production industry and suitable for work on
professional SMD electronics. The ergonomic handle with a short distance between heating element and
tip allows very fast heat up time and quick heat dispersion. The high-quality sensor and heat transfer
technology ensure precise temperature regulation that is essential for making consistent, reliable soldering
connections. The aluminium alloy housing has advantages of strong structure, good heat sinking, and
effective resistance from electro-magnetic interference. It provides all the benefits of temperature
regulation and connects via a highly flexible burn-resistant Silicone (rubber) lead.
The T 2460A incorporates electronic circuitry which enables the user to alter tip temperature from 100
to 500°C without changing tips or heating elements. The LCD touchscreen on the front panel provides
a user with a clear vision and convenient function setting controls. The temperature is maintained within
+/-3° of its operating temperature by a thermocouple sensor placed in the head of the heating element,
allowing the tip to rest against the sensor. The 100W high power output results in both a rapid heat-up
and super-fast recovery.
The revolutionary “Zero Voltage” electronic switching design also protects voltage and current sensitive
components (CMOS devices. etc.) against damaging current and transient voltage spikes commonly
produced by less efficient, mechanically switched stations. The power unit is isolated from the A.C. line
by a transformer and allows only 32Vac to drive the heating element. The temperature “Lock-out” feature
by “password” is convenient for production management. The many features of the T 2460A make it the
ideal tool for service and repair technicians as well as production line soldering operations. This unit is
developed to meet the present and future lead-free soldering needs of the electronic production industry,
and is ideal for use at any AC outlet.
