Advanced Functionalities

Profiles
To work with profiles it is essential to use RWB / RWS / RWT rework arms. The Rework Arms supports the Hot Air Heater maintaining the distance and position to the component.
In this mode you can set up or edit as many as 25 profiles of temperature and air flow.

Edit Mode

Graphics
By pressing Graphics in the main MENU, temperature and power fi gures in real time are displayed. This helps you decide which nozzle to use to obtain the best quality solder joints.

The first system to optimize traceability in soldering

• Get greater quality and control in your production
• Manage your whole soldering process remotely in real time

Export Graphics
Insert a USB flash drive into the USB-A connector to save your soldering process in csv format.

Station Update
Download the JBC Update File from
www.jbctools.com/software.html
Insert the USB flash drive with the file downloadedto the station.

Press INFO for failure description, the type of error and how to proceed.

Adjustable Stand

Adjust the tool holder angle to suit your work position.

Operation Modes

1. From the Tool Settings Menu,select the mode to activate the tool depending on the task.
   Tool button Press the start/stop button to blow hot air.
   Pedal (not included)
   Press the Pedal (Ref. P-305) to blow hot air and release to stop.

2. The tool stops blowing when pressing the start/stop button.
   If the stand is connected to the station and for safety it will also stop when returned to the stand.

Operation

1. Placing
   Position the extractor with the appropriate suction cup and press the suction button.

2. Heating
   Heat the component.

3. Extracting
   The component lifts off automatically when the solder melts.

Protectors & Extractors

For small components (fig. 1 and 2).
We recommend using the protector + tripod

For large components (fig. 3 and 4).
We recommend using the manual extractors

Pick & Place (not included)

This tool helps you place and remove SMDs of any size easily thanks to the suction pump.

Operation
Choose the needle and the suction cup that best fits the component and start as follows:

1. Suction
   Once the suction is activated, cover the pen hole with your finger and lift off the component.

2. Release
   Lift your finger to release the component.

Using the Thermocouple type K

Connect a TC type K (PH218) to the station and use it as a protection or regulation sensor. You can define its use mode by means of the “Ext TC mode” option in the “Tool” menu.
You can choose from two work modes:

Regulation: the station regulates the air temperature automatically to maintain the External Thermocouple (TC) temperature.

Protection: the station cuts the air supply off when the External Thermocouple (TC) temperature is reached.

IPC* does not recommend exceeding ramp-up rates over 3-4ºC / sec. (5-7ºF / sec) so as to reduce the risk of thermal stress on the PCB.

• IPC was founded in the U.S. in 1957 as the Institute for Printed Circuits.

Quick Nozzle Changer
Changing nozzles quickly and safely.

Turn the tool off and handle with care.
The heating element and the nozzle are still hot.

Compatible Nozzles
TET works with TE nozzles. Find the model that best suits your soldering needs in www.jbctools.com

Replacing the Heating Element
Only perform this operation when the element is cold and the unit is disconnected from the mains.

1. Loosen the screw.
2. Pull the heating element away from the handle.
3. Connect the new heating element, ensuring it is pushed all the way in.
4. Tighten the screw.

Changing the TET Heater Hose Set

1. Ensure that the tool is turned off.
2. Use a spanner to unscrew the nut.
3. Make sure that the new heater tube fits into the grooves in the socket.
4. Tighten the screw.

Maintenance

Before carrying out maintenance, always allow the equipment to cool down.

• Clean the station screen with a glass cleaner or a damp cloth.
• Use a damp cloth to clean the casing and the tool. Alcohol can only be used to clean the metal parts.
• Periodically check that the metal parts of the tool and stand are clean so that the station can detect the tool status.
• Periodically check all cables and tubes.
• Replace a blown fuse as follows:

Clean periodically

1. Pull off the fuse holder and remove the fuse. If necessary use a tool to lever it off.
2. Insert the new fuse into the fuse holder and return it to the station.
   • Replace any defective or damaged pieces. Use original JBC spare parts only.
   • Repairs should only be performed by a JBC-authorized technical service.

Safety

It is imperative to follow safety guidelines to prevent electric shock, injury, fire or explosion.

• Do not use the units for any purpose other than soldering or rework. Incorrect use may cause fire.

• The power cord must be plugged into approved bases. Be sure that it is properly grounded before use. When unplugging it, hold the plug, not the wire.

• Do not work on electrically live parts.

• The tool should be placed in the stand when not in use in order to activate the sleep mode.
  The soldering tip or nozzle, the metal part of the tool and the stand may still be hot even when the station is turned off. Handle with care, including when adjusting the stand position.

• Do not leave the appliance unattended when it is on.

• Do not cover the ventilation grills. Heat can cause inflamable products to ignite.

• Avoid flux coming into contact with skin or eyes to prevent irritation.

• Be careful with the fumes produced when soldering.

• Keep your workplace clean and tidy. Wear appropriate protection glasses and gloves when working to avoid personal harm.

• Utmost care must be taken with liquid tin waste which can cause burns.

• This appliance can be used by children over the age of eight and also persons with reduced physical, sensory or mental capabilities or lack of experience provided that they have been given adequate supervision or instruction concerning use of the appliance and understand the hazards involved. Children must not play with the appliance.

• Maintenance must not be carried out by children unless supervised.
