WATC100 automatic soldering tip cleaner with metal brushes, ESD safe, 24 V - Weller WATC100M

An oxidised tip transfers less heat and leaves an untidy joint. The WATC100 removes oxide and solder residue in one second, and the brushes start automatically as soon as the tip enters. The collecting cup holds the residue and can be emptied cleanly.

Benefits in use

• Cleaning in one second, with no residue ending up on the bench.
• Metal brushes for firm cleaning, and two different brushes cover varying tip sizes and geometries.
• Careful tip conditioning extends tip life twofold against manual cleaning according to the manufacturer.
• Automatic on and off activation, a light bar shows the operating mode and LEDs illuminate the brush interior.
• Tool free brush change and a hygienically emptied collecting cup keep maintenance short.
• ESD safe housing measuring 141 x 110 x 131 mm, suitable for soldering tips and desoldering tweezers.

Applications

Hand soldering benches in electronics manufacturing, repair, test and laboratory. It pays off wherever several tip geometries and solder types share one bench.

Compatibility

Usable for soldering tips and desoldering tweezers. The splash guard comes in black and grey, which allows leaded and lead free solder to be told apart at the bench. Operating voltage is 24 V.

Standards and compliance

The housing is ESD safe and therefore suitable for EPA areas in production. Permitted ambient temperature is -10 to 45 °C.
