GPC-R-114 nonflammable, solvent-based cleaning liquid is for manual cleaning applications such as PBA and maintenance cleaning. Dissolves post-soldering flux residues and evaporates quickly without leaving visible residues on substrates. Is compatible will most materials used in electronics assembly and cleaning processes. Noncorrosive. Easy-to-use spray gun applicator.

Gap Pad HC 5.0 thermal interface material is designed to manage heat generated by reduced form factor, high-power density components. Is a soft, compliant gap filling material; has a thermal conductivity of 5.0W/m-K and delivers outstanding thermal performance with low compression stress. Is reportedly ideal for applications that require minimal component or board stress during assembly, yet demand high heat transfer across the interface with very low thermal resistance.

AquaRose is an automated water-based batch printed circuit board cleaner and resistivity of solvent extract (ROSE) cleanliness tester. Is 1m x 1m and includes Earth Smart closed-loop DI and chemical wash process. Automatic ROSE ionic cleanliness verification can eliminate the need to pull a sample and run a separate test. Process control features provide limits to be set, monitored and recorded for product/process traceability. Uses high-energy fluid dynamics cleaning design. Product drying times reportedly have been shortened 50% with rotating head dryers.
