Features and Connections

Adjustable Stand

• Adjust the tool stand to suit your work position.

Cable Collector (Ref. CC1001)

The Cable Collector keeps the cable away from the work area and prevents the weight of the cable from disturbing the operator while soldering.

• Insert the cable into the clip and then insert it into the Cable Collector. Do not leave the cable longer than necessary to reach the work area freely.
• The Cable Collector is flexible. It accompanies and adapts to the movements during the soldering process.

Tip Cleaner

• Select the option to suit your needs and improve the thermal transfer of the tip.

Removing the Splashguard

1. Unlock the splashguard.
2. . Lift off.

More cleaning options (not supplied):

Inserting Handle

• Push the grip with the tabs onto the handle.

Removing Tabs

• Hold the grip and pull the tab. Use pliers if necessary.

Sealing Plug Replacement

The sealing plug prevents undesirable flux vapors or particles from entering inside the tool. Its usage is highly recommended for intensive applications when soldering is exposed to FOD environments or for applications where the soldering iron works close to a vertical position. Note: For the different handles are different sealing plugs available.

Handels

• T245 / T470
• T210

Sealing plug ref

• OB2000
• OB1000

Before replacing the sealing plug, unplug the power supply and make sure the device is not hot.

Removing Sealing Plug

• Enter, not deeper than 8mm, a small shaft or screwdriver, and lift and pull the sealing plug. Never use a cartridge to do this operation.

Mounting Position

Note: The chamfered side has to be positioned towards the handle.

Inserting Sealing Plug

• Push the sealing plug inside the handle until the sealing plug and handle edges are aligned.

Quick Tip Changer

Save time and change cartridges safely without switching the station off .

• Place the handpiece in the extractor and pull to remove the cartridge.
• Place the handpiece on top of the new cartridge and press down slightly.
• Use the holes for fixing the cartridge* as follows:
  • A. For straight C210.
  • B. For curved C210.
  • C. For C245.

Important: It is essential to insert the cartridges as far as the mark for a proper connection.

Compatible Cartridges

The CD-B stations work with C245 cartridges and T245 handles.

Operation

The JBC Most Efficient Soldering 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.

• When the tool is lifted from the stand the tip will heat up to the selected temperature.
• When the tool is in the stand, the temperature falls to the preset sleep temperature.
• After longer periods of inactivity, the power is cut off and the tool cools down to room temperature.

Change temperature (from 90 to 450ºC)

• Steps ± 5
• Steps ± 50

Through menu settings:

• Select temperature levels
• Fix one temperature

Through menu settings:

• Change Sleep temperature
• Set Sleep delay (from 0 to 9 min or no Sleep)

Through menu settings:

• Change Hibernation delay (from 0 to 35 min)

Parameters

Be careful when using these parameters as they may reduce the tip life if not used properly. Please follow the recommended guidelines:

• Manage and monitor as many stations as your PC can handle by using the JBC Web Manager.
• You can export data to another PC

Maintenance

Before carrying out maintenance, always switch the device off and disconnect it from the mains. 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.
• 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.
• Only use original JBC spare parts.

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. Insert the new fuse into the fuse holder and return it to the station

• When this warning appears on the main screen Earthing Fuse must be replaced.
• 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 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, 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.
