ALPHA
EF-8000 lead-free no-clean wave solder flux claims to provide excellent
first pass yields, worry-free in-circuit testability and excellent
electrical reliability in lead-free and tin/lead wave soldering
applications. IPC rated ROL0, exceeds the
Bellcore and JIS standards for electromigration and surface insulation
resistance, as well as more stringent electromigration and bulk
insulation resistance requirements from leading OEMs.
"ALPHA
EF-8000 flux creates a new industry standard for broad latitude
application, because it withstands the higher PWB surface temperatures
required for successful lead-free soldering, but it is fully capable
for use in standard tin-lead applications," said Mitch Holtzer, global
product manager. "In addition, it can be qualified now for emerging lead-free requirements, and used in lead-free or tin lead production lines."
Low
rosin content minimizes flux residue buildup on pallets and wave
soldering equipment normally associated with high (>10%) rosin flux
formulas.
