Operation

JBC’s Exclusive Heating System

This revolutionary technology is able to recover tip temperature extremely quickly. This allows the user to work at a lower temperature. As a result, tip life increases by 5.

Work

When the tool is lifted from the holder the tip will heat up to the selected temperature.

JBC-NAE-9C-NAU-Nano-Control-Unit-fig-17

Tools Menu:

  • Set temperature limits
  • Set temperature levels

Hibernation

When the tool is in the holder, the power is cut off and the tool cools down to room temperature.

JBC-NAE-9C-NAU-Nano-Control-Unit-fig-19

Tools Menu:

  • Set Hibernation delay (from 0 to 60 min or no Hibernation)

Example:
Chip Components Rework Process using Tweezers and Pedal

The Pedal is frequently used to rework components with tweezers. AN115 JBCs adjustable nano tweezers is the most effective tool for desoldering chip components but also it facilitates its rapid placement and soldering by using P405 pedal connected to JBC´s NAS station.

Connections

Connect pedal P405 to the same port where AN115 nanotweezers are connected. In the peripherals menu for the “Pedal Activation Mode” choose between “pressed” and “released”.

JBC-NAE-9C-NAU-Nano-Control-Unit-fig-20

Desoldering

Lift the tool from the holder, press and hold the pedal to activate the tool and desolder the component. Once the pedal is released the tool enters in hibernation mode and cools down.

  • Press Mode” previously selected

Pad Cleaning

Clean the pads with JBC´s desoldering tool DS360. For this operation JBC´s desoldering station DSS is needed.

Solder Paste Dispensing

Apply the solder paste amount needed to solder the new chip component. The use of JBC´s DPM solder paste dispenser is recommended

Placing

Do not press the pedal. Use the tool to position the component on the previously tinned pad.
Note: The inactive tool prevents the component from heating up prematurely

Soldering

Once in position press and hold the pedal to activate the tool and perform the soldering

Changing Cartridges

Save time and change cartridges safely without having to switch the station off

  1. Removing Place the cartridge into the extractor slot (1) and pull the handle to remove them (2).
  2. Inserting Push the cartridge into the handle until the mark
  3. Aligning Use the holes to rotate the cartridges for a proper alignment

JBC-NAE-9C-NAU-Nano-Control-Unit-fig-27

Important
It is essential to insert the cartridges as far as the reference ring for a proper connection

Compatible Cartridges

The Nano Handle NT115 and the Adjustable Nano Tweezers AN115 work with C115 cartridges. Find the model that best suits your soldering needs on www.jbctools.com

Maintenance

Before carrying out maintenance, always switch the device off and disconnect it from the mains. Allow the equipment to cool down.

JBC-NAE-9C-NAU-Nano-Control-Unit-fig-30

  • 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.
  • Maintain tip surface clean and tinned prior to storage in order to avoid tip oxidation. Rusty and dirty surfaces reduce heat transfer to the solder joint.
  • Periodically check all cables and tubes.
  • Replace any defective or damaged pieces. Use original JBC spare parts only.
  • Replace a blown fuse as follows:
  1. Pull off the fuse holder and remove the fuse. If necessary use a tool to lever it off.
  2. Press the new fuse into the fuse holder and replace it in the station.

  • Repairs should only be performed by a JBC-authorized technical service

Safety

Warning 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 a 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 inflammable 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.
