• Cease using the unit if the housing of the product becomes damaged. If it is

still connected to the mains then you should not touch either the product or

the attached devices! Firstly break the electric circuit to which the product is

attached (switch automatic circuit breaker off). Only then should the attached

equipment be unplugged; then unplug the CONTROLLER from the socket.

Bring the product to a suitable place of repair or dispose of it in an

environmentally friendly manner.

• Dispose of all packaging carefully, this could become a dangerous hazard for

Reflow-Controlle

3. Introduction

The Reflow Oven CONTROLLER regulates the Reflow-Kit oven. In order to

achieve an optimal soldering result, determined times and temperatures must be

kept when soldering SMD components with flux.

The Reflow-Kit CONTROLLER regulates your oven in such a way that the times

and temperatures are adhered to and an optimal soldering result can be

achieved.

The boards and components are slowly heated in a preheating phase.

Thus mechanical stresses in the board and in the components are avoided.

After the preliminary heating the temperature is increased to just under the

soldering temperature. This allows the volatile components of the flux to escape,

avoiding blistering.

Heat then increases up to soldering temperature. The flux will become liquid and

the componenets will form a connection to the board. The soldering temperature

is accurately adhered to during the soldering phase, so that no damages arise

through overheating.

The CONTROLLER will beep to signal the conclusion of the soldering phase. The

finished soldered board can now be taken from the oven.

4. Overview

The Reflow CONTROLLER has a plug housing and connection to the oven. It has

3 command buttons, 6 LED's to display status and errors, and a buzzer.

5. Technical Data

Operating voltage: 230V~/50Hz

Max. connected load: 1500 W

become switched off, current programs

interrupted.

Solder Start the automatic soldering cycle.

Learn An automatic alignment and systems check are

begun. The CONTROLLER learns the

characteristics of the oven in use.

7. Operation

7.1. Soldering procedure

• Switch your Reflow oven on to the highest performance level.

• Switch on the upper and lower heating elements and place the grill onto the

middle rail.

• Place the temperature regulator of the oven on highest setting.

• Set the oven timer to > 30 min. The oven does not have to be pre-heated.

The soldering procedure can only start once the oven has a temperature of <

50 °C. If you are soldering several boards in rapid succession, the oven must

be allowed to cool to under 50°C between the individual soldering

procedures.

• For soldering the board is put on the center of the grill. Place the temperature

sensor under, or on, the board in such a way that it touches it. This is to

ensure that the temperature sensor measures the board temperature - and

not the air temperature.

• Close the oven door and check again that the temperature sensor did not slip

from the board.

• Press the solder button to commence automatic soldering procedure.

The LEDs indicate the current status of the procedure:

Preheating Phase Slowly warms up and keeps the board heated for

a time.

Soaking Phase Flux activates. Continues to heat slowly to just

under the melting point of the flux.

Reflow Phase Heat increases quickly up to melting point of flux.

Retaining Phase Temperature is maintained slightly above the

melting point of the flux.

If the soldering procedure is finished all LEDs will switch off and an audio signal

sounds. Open the door of the oven immediately for fast cooling.

Instruction Manual

Warning: The board is still hot.

ADVICE

The automatic soldering process can only begin once the CONTROLLER has

learned the oven characteristics.

Fasten the temperature sensor to a piece of unused board with a wire and put this

directly beside the board being soldered.

TIP

7.2. Learning Mode

Before the oven can be used for soldering, the CONTROLLER must firstly learn

the heating and temperature settings of the closed oven.

The LED will blink to indicate the Learning Mode is underway. This process must

be allowed to finish or the CONTROLLER will not allow the soldering phase to be

selected.

For a successful learning mode you should place a board in the oven and the

temperature sensor under or on the board so that it is touching it. Thereby

ensuring that the temperature sensor measures the board temperature - and not

the air temperature.

Now close the oven and press the learning button. The learning mode LED shines

or flashes during the entire learning mode. The oven is then heated up to 100 °C.

The on/off LED lights up. Once 100 °C is reached, the heating is switched off. The

CONTROLLER now measures how far the oven continues to warm up despite

being switched off. Once all LEDs are switched off the learning mode is finished

and the door can again be opened.

Now the CONTROLLER calculates and stores the characteristics of the oven.

It is now ready for the Reflow soldering process.

7.3. System Self-test

After switching on on the CONTROLLER runs a system test.

Sensor test

The temperature sensor is checked. The preheating phase LED will flash, as long

as no temperature sensor is recognized.

Please check the temperature sensor if this LED continues to flash after switching

on the CONTROLLER.

LED Test

In a 1-second pulse all LEDs are successively switched on and off.

Buzzer Test

The audio alarm will sound for 1 second.

7.4. Temperature calibration

The temperature sensor of the Reflow CONTROLLER is preset and does not

have not to be calibrated normally. However, if necessary the Reflow

CONTROLLER can be adjusted to the sensor.

The temperature calibration should be done via a connected PC with the function

"tempoffset" selected. (See page 10)

If a PC is not available, the temperature calibration can also take place

semiautomatically.

To do this you must place a temperature sensor with fast-indicating thermometer

in the Reflow oven.

Press the Learning Mode button. As soon as the On/Off LED comes on, press the

Solder button.

The oven will now heat to full capacity. At the moment where the oven achieves

the preset soldering temperature, press the OFF key.
