Convection Board Preheater 1800 W, 230 V, without PCB Holder - JBC PHBE-2B

When reworking large or multilayer PCBs, the copper planes draw heat away from the iron and cause thermal shock. The JBC PHBE-2B brings the whole assembly to a controlled preheat temperature from below, so you can safely remove and replace BGAs, connectors and SMD components without warping the board.

Key benefits

• 1800 W convection heating for fast, even preheating with no hot spots
• Two independent heating zones (360 x 277 mm) for boards up to 36 x 28 cm
• 22 programmable temperature profiles with up to 16 steps each
• Four type-K thermocouple inputs for control and over-temperature protection
• USB-A for firmware updates, USB-B for PC communication, plus robot and pedal connectors

Technical specifications

• Peak power: 1800 W
• Supply voltage: 230 V
• Temperature range: 50 to 250 °C
• Heating area: 360 x 277 mm (2 zones)
• Dimensions: 426 x 444 x 41 mm
• Weight: 6.9 kg

Applications

Suited to reworking laptop mainboards, PCB panels and large multilayer assemblies that need defined preheating across the full board area.

In the box and compatibility

Supplied with the convection preheater and control console, two type-K thermocouples (PH218) and Kapton tape (PH217). The -2B variant ships without a PCB holder. It can be paired with the RHBD-A swivel hand rest and a separate board holder; the PHBE-2KB version already includes the holder.

Standards

ESD safe to ANSI/ESD S20.20-2021. Compliant with CE and RoHS. Made in Spain.
