TechnicalData Sheet C511 October -2009 PRODUCT DESCRIPTION Soldering Iron: Good results can be obtained using a range of tip C511 provides the following product characteristics: temperatures. However, the optimum tip temperature and Technology Cored solder wire heat capacity required for a hand-soldering process is a Activity High function of both soldering iron design and the nature of Product Benefits No clean the task. Clearresidue Care should be exercised to avoid unnecessarily hightip Good wetting temperatures for extensive periods of time. Fast soldering A hightip temperature may increase any tendency to flux Heat stable spitting and it may produce some residue darkening. Mildodor The tip of the soldering iron should be properly tinned. Pb-freeand SnPb alloys available Severely contaminated soldering iron tips should be IPC/J-STD-004 ROM1 cleaned with Multicore Tip Tinner/Cleaner. Classification Wipe the tip on a clean,damp sponge before re-tinning Application Soldering -Cored wire with C511 wire. Surface Finishes Copper ,Brass and Nickel Soldering Process: 1. Apply the soldering iron tip to the work surface. The iron C511 cored solder wire has been specially formulated to tip should contact both the base material and the leadat complement no clean wave and reflow soldering processes. the same time to heat both surfaces properly. It should take no more than a fraction of a second to heat both TYPICAL PROPERTIES surfaces adequately. 2. Apply C511 fluxcored wire to a part of the joint surface Solder Wire -Cored Typical Properties away from the soldering iron and allow to form a joint Alloys -Tin/lead SN63 fillet. This willbe virtually instantaneous. Do not apply SN60 excessive solder to the joint as this willnot improve joint integrity and it willleave excess flux residues on the SN62 surface. Alloys -Lead Free 96SC(SAC387) 97SC(SAC305) 3. Remove solder from the work piece and then remove the 99C(SnCu) iron tip. 95A (SnSb) 4. The total process willbe very rapid, depending upon 96S(SnAg) thermal mass, tip temperature, tip configuration and the AcidValue 164 to 176mg KOH/g solderability of the surfaces to be joined. Halidecontent 1.1% 5. The resin and flux systems are designed to leave Flux Content (%) 2.7 relatively low residues and to minimize residual activity. This is achieved by ensuring some decomposition and ALLOYS: volatilization takes place during the soldering process The alloys used in C511 cored solder wires conform to the purity requirements of the common national and international Cleaning: standards . C511 flux cored solder wire has been formulated to leave amber flux residues and resist spitting and fuming. In most FLUX: industrial and consumer electronics applications, cleaning will C511 solid flux is based on modified rosin and carefully not be required. The product may, therefore, be used to selected activators. In practice they exhibit a mildrosin odor complement a no-clean wave soldering or reflow process or to and leave a smallquantity of clearresidue . allowrepairs to cleaned boards without the need for a second cleaning process. In high-reliabilityapplications, the residues DIRECTIONS FOR USE should be removed. Soldering with C511 does not require any special methods or deviation from standard hand soldering practices. Should cleaning be required, this is best achieved using SC-01 cleaner.
