RANCHO CUCAMONGA, CA – Aqueous Technologies customers will receive a free Zero-Ion ROSE tester or ultrasonic stencil cleaner with the purchase of a Trident-CL during the month of July, the firm says.
Trident-CL is a closed-loop, zero-discharge fully automatic defluxer and cleanliness tester.
The Zero-Ion ROSE tester is designed to test electronics assemblies for ionic contamination. It automatically removes and detects contamination on an electrical assembly or bare board and provides quantitative contamination measurements.
Ultrasonic stencil cleaners use sound waves to remove unreflowed solder paste and uncured adhesives from stencils, screens and misprints.
