Main Screen

Note: For this configuration stand aspiration is not available and aspiration flow is set “High”. The suction force per intake decreases compared with 1 workbench configuration (see page 14).

Station Connections for Premium Range

JBC Soldering Stations feature a robot port to the fume extractor in order to automatically activate the extraction when the tools are in use. Use the Premium Station Cable  (included) for the connection.
Connect up to 4 stations directly to a fume extractor through the soldering station robot port. Every tool connected to a station can control the aspiration system.
Each Station detects the fume extractor as “FAE_a”. The tool that should activate the fume extraction needs to be configured through the peripheral menu option on the station menu.

Note: For a correct operation always update soldering stations with the latest available software version. The minimum required version is 8886160 for DDE, HDE, and NAE  stations and 8886162 for DME stations.
Use the Compact Station Cable and the Adapter cable to connect JBC Soldering Stations. They feature a USB-B port to the fume extractor in order to automatically activate the extraction when the tools are in use.

Equipment Software Update

JBC Updater
The fume extractor can be updated via the USB-B connection by means of JBC Updater software.
Download software from: www.jbctools.com/software.html.
Note: For the updating process the Premium Station Cable (RJ12) has to be disconnected. If a station is connected to the RJ12 connector the update process will not start.

Fume Extractor Activation

Once the fume extractor is turned on, the display shows a similar screen as the following one and the filter saturation indicator is green if the carbon filter lifetime is higher than 20%.

If the display shows STOP#4, power off the fume extractor, remove the cover, place it back and secure it by using the quick release levers.

Troubleshooting
Station troubleshooting is available on the product page at www.jbctools.com

Parameters

Important: Power off soldering stations connected to the fume extractor before modifying any parameter.

aspirations
remains active independently from tool or pedal status.
Beep| Enable/disable the sound of the keypad.
PIN| Enable/disable PIN requests when modifying parameters.
Change PIN| Change the default security PIN code.
Default PIN 0105
Workbench| Select working mode for 1 or 2 workbenches (see page 4 and 5).

Port

preset and custom aspiration programs.
H (High), M (Medium) or L (Low) are the three available preset options.
Use UP and DOWN keys to switch between them while being on the main screen.
Up to ten aspiration levels between H (High) and L (Low) can be selected for custom program (range 10- 100%). If a custom aspiration program is selected, the selected aspiration level can be changed on the  main screen.
By default M (Medium) aspiration program is selected.
Delay to stop /Stand| It sets the time that a fume extractor keeps aspirating fumes at the stand once the tool is returned to it  (range 0-999 seconds) By default stand time is 60 seconds.
Delay to stop /Work area| It sets the time that a fume extractor keeps aspirating fumes at the work area once the tool is returned to  the stand (range 0-300 seconds).
Pedal / Activation| It sets the pedal activation mode.
One-touch: Press the pedal once to activate aspiration. Press again to stop aspiration.
Pressed: (Mode function must be pressed) aspiration is active as long as the pedal is kept pressed.
By default activation is pressed.
Pedal / Mode| When the activation parameter is set to pressed, the mode parameter can be configured to released mode.  In this mode aspiration is always active until the pedal is pressed.
By default mode is pressed.

Filter Set

It is also displayed on the main screen. When 0% is reached the system will show a popup message STOP#1 to replace the filter.
Saturation| It shows the saturation status of the HEPA + carbon filter set, expressed in %. It is also displayed on the main screen. When 100% is reached the system will show a pop-up message STOP#2 to replace the filter.
Reset carbon| Perform this action after replacing the HEPA + carbon filter set. The carbon lifetime counter will not start until the filter is detected for the first time. After executing that function carbon filter life will be 100%.

Extraction Control

Fume extractor aspiration may be controlled by:
Pedal Connection
By means of the pedal connection, fume extractor aspiration may be activated/deactivated by the P-005 or P-405 pedal. (See pedal activation modes on the previous page)

Fume Extractor Configurations

Some parameters, features and the performance vary depending on fume extractor configuration, see the following table:

Maintenance and Filter Replacement

• The unit notifies through both the display and the LED when filters need maintenance.
• To replace the filters remove the cover by opening the quick release levers of the casing.
• If the saturation indicator remains in red after changing the pre-filter, it means that the HEPA filter is already saturated and must be replaced too (see filter replacement instruction on page 16).
• When the HEPA filter has been replaced, the carbon filter counter must be reset (Main Menu > Filter Set > Reset Carbon).
• The duration of the compact filter is a maximum of 1 year after its packaging is opened.
• If the filter is changed while the fume extractor is on, the unit starts the filter detection process, activating aspiration for a few seconds.

Quick Release Lever Adjustment

• Turn clockwise to loosen and counterclockwise to tighten, in order to adjust the filter airtightness.

Accessories

Read the safety guidelines to do the equipment maintenance safely.

Safety

Follow safety guidelines to prevent electric shock, injury, fire or explosion.

• The equipment is only designed to filtrate the fumes generated by soldering.

• Do not use the units for the filtration of combustible, explosive or corrosive gasses. 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 leave the appliance unattended when it is on.

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

• This appliance can be used by children over the age of eight and persons with reduced capabilities or lack of experience provided that they have been given adequate supervision or instruction concerning the use of the appliance and understand the hazards involved.

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

• Keep your workplace clean and tidy. Wear appropriate protective masks, glasses, and gloves when handling dirt filters or pre-filter.

• Do not use the equipment without the filters.

• Saturated filters can not be cleaned and reused.

• Avoid blowing the filter or the dirty parts of the equipment, if necessary it is advisable to vacuum.

• Avoid losing particles in the filter during handling it.

• Treat the saturated filters as waste depending on the filtered contaminant and the applicable standards in each country. This is the European Waste Catalog classification: 15 02: Absorbents, filter materials, wiping cloths, and protective clothing. 15 02 02: Absorbents, filter materials (including oil filters not otherwise specified), wiping cloths, and protective clothing contaminated by dangerous substances. 15 02 03: Absorbents, filter materials, wiping cloths, and protective clothing other than those mentioned in 15 02  02.

• In case of not complying with the filter change recommendations, the maximum particle and gas concentrations established in each country could be exceeded.
