Soldering stranded wires to a piezo actuator (only models without stranded wires)
1.
Prepare the stranded wire according to the following illustrations:
Twisting
Tinning
Shortening to 2 mm
2.
Apply the flux to the tinned end of the wire and the intended soldering point of the
electrode.
3.
Hold the stranded wire flat with the tinned end on the solder joint.
4.
Coat the tip of the soldering iron with a small amount of solder.
5.
Hold the tip of the soldering iron at the soldering point on the tinned end of the
stranded wire for a maximum of one second so that the solder flows and a flat or point-
shaped solder connection results after soldering.
