Nozzle Changeout
Removal
WARNING:
Never remove a heated nozzle using bare hands. Use the Rubber
Pad. Never use a wrench or pliers when removing a nozzle.
1. While holding the Rubber Pad, gently twist the nozzle as shown. The nozzle
will easily release from the Nozzle Adapter.
2. Place the nozzle (still hot) on a heat resistant surface.
Installation
1. Select the proper Nozzle for your application.
2. Orient the Nozzle for best use on the component.
3. Insert the Nozzle up into the Nozzle Adapter (use
Rubber Pad if nozzle
is hot). Gently twist the
nozzle as shown to lock nozzle in place.
Definitions
Please read and become familiar with the definitions of each of the following terms
that are used repeatedly in the following Operation, Set-Up Mode, and Program Mode procedures.
Manual Mode:
Mode of operation in which the operator sets only Operating Temperature and Blower
Speed parameters. The operator then manually performs a rework operation.
Operating Temperature:
The true air stream temperature as it exits the handpiece heater assembly.
This temperature is displayed on the Digital Readout during any given rework cycle where air is flowing
through the handpiece.
Password:
The password feature, when activated will prevent unauthorized alteration of stored system
parameters. If a password has been installed, the Digital Readout will display an instruction to enter the
password (a 4 key numerical sequence stored in Set-Up Mode) when a setting change is attempted.
Preheat:
A preliminary process in which the work is heated at a predetermined rate from ambient to a
desired elevated temperature in order to reduce the risk of thermal shock and to reduce cycle time during
the Reflow (primary heating) process.
Profile:
An established procedure for rework which includes all parameters (e.g., operating temperature,
cycle time, preheat) required for optimum rework of a particular component/pcb combination. Any
established Profile can then be utilized by entering it into system memory; the Profile can then be easily
recalled and used in the system Program Mode.
Program Mode:
Mode of operation in which a profile can be stored, altered (edited), or recalled and
used to automatically sequence through the established procedure once the cycle is initiated.
Set Temperature:
The operator selected air stream temperature for the particular rework cycle.
Set-Up Mode:
Mode of operation in which the operator can quickly and easily enter, change or delete
system parameters (e.g., password, °C/°F display, profile deletion).
