Five major maintenance methods for electric soldering iron
1. After purchasing the standard new electric soldering iron, the required inspection must be completed. Check the fixing screws first to see if they are loose, then inspect the power cord for damage, cracks, or copper exposure, and finally use a multimeter to measure the distance between the plug's two ends. One foot must touch the tip of the electric soldering iron and the other foot must touch the plug of the electric iron simultaneously in order for the multimeter's pointer to remain stationary, whether there is a short circuit or an open circuit, the last step of the multimeter is X10K. It is usable after the aforementioned actions.
2. In order to increase the quality and lengthen the useful life of a new electric soldering iron tip, the following procedures must be followed. You must first insert the soldering iron tip into the heating core hole of a standard electric soldering iron and then tighten the soldering iron tip. Adjust the screw. The soldering iron is placed on the rosin, the power supply is plugged in, and as the temperature rises until the rosin melts, rosin solution is applied to the tip of the soldering iron.Then press the rosin solder wire on the tip of the soldering iron until soldering Melting, and finally after the solder is evenly coated with a layer of tin on the head of the chromium head, the electric soldering iron can be put into normal use.
3. During use, the working environment of the electric soldering iron tip is very harsh, the temperature is high, and it is easy to oxidize. The flux is corrosive and easy to corrode. Eat tin (oxidation) and damage. For soldering iron tips made of metal copper, you can use assorted files to remove the oxide layer or trim the soldering iron tip to the required shape. Note that the soldering iron must be powered off and cooled. After the completion, you must operate according to item 1.3.2. For the soldering iron tip made of alloy, if it is oxidized, you can repeatedly scrub it on a wet sponge while powering on and add rosin solder wire until the oxide layer is wiped off, and the surface of the soldering iron tip is resurfaced. Enamel a layer of solder. For the cracked and damaged alloy head, only replace it.
4. An electrical product is the electric soldering iron. It is frightened of moisture and water, same like other electrical items. As a result, whether it is in use or not, be aware of moisture and avoid storing it near water or other sources of humidity. One advantage is that it can increase battery life. However, the soldering iron's service life must also be long enough to prevent accidents involving electric shock because water or humidity will reduce the soldering iron's insulation performance.
5. During the use of the electric soldering iron, we can prolong the service life of the soldering iron tip and improve the soldering quality of the electric soldering iron by adjusting the electric soldering iron. The specific method is as follows: If the soldering tin turns golden purple (oxidation) immediately, the soldering iron tip can be moved out of the heating core. If the temperature is too low, the rosin vaporizes slowly and the solder wire cannot be melted immediately, then the soldering iron tip can be removed from the heating core. Move a little in. It will melt immediately after adding solder, and it will not be oxidized in a short time (15~20 seconds). Note that the length of the tip of the 30W electric soldering iron in the heating core should not be less than 1.5CM. 50W electric soldering iron The length of the soldering iron of the soldering iron in the heating core should not be less than 2.0CM, otherwise the service life of the heating core will be shortened.
