9 Precautions
⚠️ Precautions for soldering station
To prevent damage to the soldering station and ensure safety in the working environment:
- Do not modify the soldering station without authorization.
- Use only original factory parts when replacing components.
- Do not wet the station. Avoid using the station or pulling the power cord with wet hands.
- Ensure good ventilation during soldering, as smoke is produced.
- Do not perform actions that could harm the product while in use.
- Store the station in a dry environment when not in use for extended periods.
⚠️ Precaution for soldering tips
The soldering iron tip is at a high temperature when the station is on. To prevent burns or fire hazards:
- Use the station according to the operating instructions and avoid misuse.
- Keep the station in standby mode when replacing the soldering tip. Do not touch the tip directly with your hands to avoid burns.
- Do not use the iron tip near flammable objects.
- Inform others that the iron tip is very hot and can cause accidents. Turn off the power when not in use.
- Do not knock the soldering iron on the workbench to remove residual flux, as this can damage the tip.
- Use the soldering iron tip only for soldering.
- Keep out of reach of children to prevent burns.
10 Use And Maintenance Of Soldering Tip
⚠️ Note: Do not use a file to remove oxide from the iron tip.
- After the temperature stabilizes, clean the iron tip with a cleaning sponge and check its condition.
- If black oxide is present, plate with a new tin layer, then wipe with a cleaning sponge. Repeat until oxide is removed, then plate with a new tin layer.
- If the soldering iron tip is deformed or rusted, replace it with a new one.
Use of soldering iron tip
| Soldering iron tip temperature | Choose the lowest possible temperature that fulfills the work. High temperatures weaken the tip's function. This tip offers excellent temperature resilience and supports lower temperature soldering, protecting temperature-sensitive components. |
| Cleaning | Clean the soldering iron tip regularly with a cleaning sponge. Soldering residues (oxides and carbides from flux) can damage the tip, cause errors, or reduce thermal conductivity. If using continuously for a long time, disassemble and clean the tip weekly to remove oxides and prevent damage. |
| When not in use | Do not keep the tip at high temperature for extended periods when not in use. The flux can convert to oxide, reducing heat conduction ability. |
| After use | After use, wipe the tip clean and plate it with a new tin layer to prevent oxidation. |
"Tin planting failure" may be caused by:
- The soldering iron is idle and not covered with a new tin layer.
- The soldering iron tip is at high temperature.
- Insufficient melting during soldering.
- Cleaning the tip on a dry or unclean sponge or cloth. Use a clean, moist, industrial-grade sulfur-free sponge.
- The solder or iron coating is impure, or the soldering surface is not clean.
11 How to prolong the service life of soldering iron tip?
- Soak with fresh solder after each use to prevent oxidation and prolong service life.
- Apply the temperature as low as possible to fulfill the work; lower temperatures reduce tip oxidation and make soldering easier.
- Use a thin iron tip only when necessary, as its coating is less durable than a thick tip's.
- Do not use the soldering tip as a detection tool; bending it can damage the coating and shorten its life.
- Use less active rosin flux, as high active rosin content accelerates corrosion of the iron tip coating.
- When not in use or stopping soldering, place the handle in the holder or turn off the power promptly.
- Do not apply heavy pressure on the soldering tip; higher pressure does not ensure faster heat transfer.
- For effective heat transfer, the solder must melt to form a heat transfer solder bridge between the soldering tip and the solder joint.
⚠️ Note: Proper daily maintenance will effectively improve the service life of the soldering iron tip.
