is ended by pressing a button or finger switch pressure. During
this process the required value set is briefly displayed.
Lock:
Locking the setpoint temperature. Settings cannot be changed
after the soldering station has been locked.
°C/°F:
Switching the temperature display from °C to °F, and vice versa.
Window:
Limitation of the temperature range to max. ± 99°C based on a
locked temperature resulting from the "LOCK” function. The
locked temperature represents the median point of the adjustable
temperature range.
Cal:
Re-adjustment of the soldering station (WCB 2 only).
PC interface: RS232 (WCB 2 only).
Temp. gauge: Integrated temperature gauge for thermal element Type K
(WCB 2 only).
Hot Air Soldering Tool
The hot air nozzles are screwed into the heater element. To change the nozzle use the
8 AF socket spanner and lock the heater element with an open ended spanner.
Important: The maximum thread depth is 5 mm (0.2"). A longer thread will
irreparably damage the heater element.
Nitrogen N
2
reduces oxidation and flux remains active for longer. We recommend the
nitrogen N
2
that is available in steel bottles. The bottle must be equipped with a 0-10
bar pressure reducer.
Soldering Iron
The transition between the heater element/sensor and the soldering iron bit must not
be degraded by dirt, foreign bodies or damage because these will have an effect on
the precision of temperature regulation.
When heating up for the first time, wet the selectively tinnable soldering iron bit with
solder. This removes oxide layers and soiling that have formed during storage. Always
ensure that the soldering iron bit is well tinned during breaks in soldering and when
placing in the holder. Do not use aggressive fluxes.
Important: Always ensure that the soldering iron bit is correctly seated.
The soldering equipment has been set up for a medium size bit or nozzle. Variations
may occur if the bit is changed or if other bit shapes are used.
5. Safety instructions
The manufacturer assumes no liability for uses other than those described in the
operating instructions, or for unauthorized alterations.
These operating instructions and warnings should be read carefully and kept in an
easily visible location in the vicinity of the soldering iron. Non-observance of these
warnings can result in accidents, injury or risks to health.
The WELLER soldering station WAD 101 is in compliance with the EC Declaration of
Conformity in accordance with the basic safety requirements specified by Directives
89/336/EEC and 73/23/EEC.
