● Tip temperature:
Long lasting high temp will harm the iron tip. Choose low temperatures
wherever possible. This soldering station is reheating very quickly, so even at low temperature
good solder joints can be achieved and heat sensitive components can be protected.
●
clean: The soldering tip should be cleaned regularly. Burned flux residues and oxides can
cause poor soldering joints or limit the thermal conductivity of the soldering tip. Also heat
transfer from soldering iron to the tip might be affected. Disassemble the tip and clean the
complete tip once a week.
●
when not in use: Leaving the soldering iron at high temperatures for a long period of time will
increase the risk of oxidation. This will limit the heat transfer capabilities of the solder tip and
result in bad solder joints. Therefore, switch off the soldering iron when not in use for long
periods or reduce the heat setting.
●
After usage: After use, you should clean the tip with a sponge or brass wool and coat it with a
fresh layer of tin to prevent the tip from oxidation.
Tip: Using Stannol Tippy tip cleaner will help you to maintain your soldering tips and will
extend their lifetime.
Using standard lead free alloys will reduce lifetime of the tips. Higher content of tin makes the
solder more aggressive against the soldering tip, causing faster corrosion. Using special lead free
alloys like Stannol Flowtin will help to extend the lifetime. For more information visit our website
