Chemical Clean Lines

Designed specifically for printed circuit board cleaning. Combines chemical and mechanical cleaning in one space saving conveyorized system.

The conveyor rollers are constructed of a three piece design. Brass end plugs are machined and pressed into a steel tube. Neoprene rubber is then blown over the tubes forming a rigid yet resilient conveyor roll that is impervious to moisture and most chemicals, yet will not damage the most delicate of circuit boards.

The Tank Console is a modular designed unit consisting of four chambers. It is fabricated of stress relieved polypropylene and welded to the internal frame plates to form one complete unit to ensure a leak proof system.

Cleaning Chamber

The Cleaning Chamber is the first stage of the multiple stage cleaning system utilizing 40 gallon filtered, recirculating thermostatically controlled reservoir. A stainless steel heater is coupled with an overtemperature device and a low level safety control. A pump recirculates 3600 gallons per hour of chemical solution through 45 strategically placed "jet spray nozzles". Quadruple baffling at the exit of this chamber assures minimum drag out into the second stage cleaning chamber.

Oscillation Brushes in the cleaning chamber ensures proper cleaning of contaminants from the traces and pads of the printed circuit boards.

Fresh Water Rinse Chamber

The Fresh Water Rinse Chamber is the second stage of the cleaning system. The chamber contains 30 strategically placed "jet spray nozzles". Water is sprayed on both sides of the panels completely removing all traces of chemical and surface residue. The water is supplied by in house pressure.

Recirculating Chamber

The Recirculating Chamber is the third stage of the cleaning system. The chamber utilizes a 12 gallon filtered, recirculating thermostatically controlled reservoir. A stainless steel heater is coupled with an overtemperature device and a low level safety control. The pump recirculates 3,600 gallons per hour of solution through 30 strategically placed "jet spray nozzles". Quadruple baffling at the exit of this chamber minimizes solution loss.

Drying System

The Drying System is the fourth stage of the cleaning system. The chamber utilizes an efficient, filtered air system that is the key to the drying principle. A high velocity pressure type self cleaning aluminum fan produces 1450 cubic feet of air per minute at 15 inches of static pressure. Ambient air is then fed through six uniquely designed airknives (three top and three bottom) that blast away any trace of moisture, including all through holes.

Filtration System

The Filtration System filters the solutions to the Cleaning Chamber and the Recirculating Chamber, utilizing polypropylene canisters for contaminant entrapment. Solutions are returned to the chambers through heavy duty schedule 80 PVC plumbing. All necessary control valves and drains are easily accessible through a convenient snap lock door located on the side of the machine.

Other key features are:

• The frame is constructed of welded angular steel and coated with high quality chemical and rust resistant paints.
• The precision machined frame plates are fabricated of high impact stress relieved polypropylene and connected by heavy duty stainless steel side bars to ensure positive warp resistant construction.
• External covers are constructed of 1/4" PVC to withstand the most rugged abuse. They are custom fitted to obtain a streamlined finish.
• Fixed or variable speed, automatic feed through conveyor for precise process control and smooth positive roller action.
• 24" and 30" wide models available.
• Control switches and indicators are conveniently located on the front of the machine.
• Optional remote electrical control panel.
• Optional transfer conveyors.
• Low water usage which reduces operating costs.
• Minimum floor space requirement.
• Domestic and export power.
