•
Use only lead-free soldering tin Philips SAC305 with order
code 0622 149 00106. If lead-free solder paste is required,
please contact the manufacturer of your soldering
equipment. In general, use of solder paste within
workshops should be avoided because paste is not easy to
store and to handle.
•
Use only adequate solder tools applicable for lead-free
soldering tin. The solder tool must be able:
–
To reach a solder-tip temperature of at least 400°C.
–
To stabilise the adjusted temperature at the solder-tip.
–
To exchange solder-tips for different applications.
•
Adjust your solder tool so that a temperature of around
360°C - 380°C is reached and stabilised at the solder joint.
Heating time of the solder-joint should not exceed ~ 4 sec.
Avoid temperatures above 400°C, otherwise wear-out of
tips will increase drastically and flux-fluid will be destroyed.
To avoid wear-out of tips, switch “off” unused equipment or
reduce heat.
•
Mix of lead-free soldering tin/parts with leaded soldering
tin/parts is possible but PHILIPS recommends strongly to
avoid mixed regimes. If this cannot be avoided, carefully
clear the solder-joint from old tin and re-solder with new tin.
•
Use only original spare-parts listed in the Service-Manuals.
Not listed standard material (commodities) has to be
purchased at external companies.
•
For sets produced before 1.1.2005, containing leaded
soldering tin and components, all needed spare parts will
be available till the end of the service period. For the repair
of such sets nothing changes.
In case of doubt whether the board is lead-free or not (or with
mixed technologies), you can use the following method:
•
Always use the highest temperature to solder, when using
SAC305 (see also instructions below).
•
De-solder thoroughly (clean solder joints to avoid mix of
two alloys).
2.3.4
Alternative BOM identification
In September 2003, Philips CE introduced a change in the way
the serial number (or production number, see Figure 2-1) is
composed. From this date on, the third digit in the serial
number (example: AG2B0335000001) indicates the number of
the alternative BOM (Bill of Materials used for producing the
specific model of TV set). It is possible that the same TV model
on the market is produced with e.g. two different types of
displays, coming from two different O.E.M.s.
By looking at the third digit of the serial number, the service
technician can see if there is more than one type of B.O.M.
used in the production of the TV set he is working with. He can
then consult the At Your Service Web site, where he can type
in the Commercial Type Version Number of the TV set (e.g.
28PW9515/12), after which a screen will appear that gives
information about the number of alternative B.O.M.s used.
If the third digit of the serial number contains the number 1
(example: AG1B033500001), then there is only one B.O.M.
version of the TV set on the market. If the third digit is a 2
(example: AG2B0335000001), then there are two different
B.O.M.s. Information about this is important for ordering the
correct spare parts!
For the third digit, the numbers 1...9 and the characters A...Z
can be used, so in total: 9 plus 26 = 35 different B.O.M.s can
be indicated by the third digit of the serial number.
2.3.5
Board Level Repair (BLR) or Component Level Repair
(CLR)
If a board is defective, consult your repair procedure to decide
if the board has to be exchanged or if it should be repaired on
component level.
If your repair procedure says the board should be exchanged
completely, do not solder on the defective board. Otherwise, it
cannot be returned to the O.E.M. supplier for back charging!
2.3.6
Practical Service Precautions
•
It makes sense to avoid exposure to electrical shock.
While some sources are expected to have a possible
dangerous impact, others of quite high potential are of
limited current and are sometimes held in less regard.
•
Always respect voltages. While some may not be
dangerous in themselves, they can cause unexpected
reactions that are best avoided. Before reaching into a
powered TV set, it is best to test the high voltage insulation.
It is easy to do, and is a good service precaution.
