20 November 2002
Manufacturing / Production Technology, Hardware & Services
Xytronic's Auto-Temp 137ESD temperature controlled soldering station is developed to meet the present and future needs of the electronic production industry, service technician and the hobbyist. The detachable soldering iron is engineered with a highly insulated ceramic heating element, incorporating a state-of-the-art PTC sensor to ensure accurate temperature performance.
The Auto-Temp 137ESD provides an 'easy to read' digital temperature indicator, a detachable 60 W solder wand complete with tip, and a 'set and forget' temperature control that allows a precision accuracy heat setting range of between 200 and 480°C. It exceeds all soldering equipment military specifications regarding electrostatic sensitive devices for critical applications.
Precision tip temperature accuracy is controlled to within ±3°C. Heat-up time to working temperature is attained in about 45 seconds. Tip leakage is less than 0,4 mV or 0,5 Ω resistance.
Auto-Temp soldering stations are constructed with a lock-out feature to allow supervisors the ability to set and lock the stations at a specific temperature. This is accomplished with a special size allen head screw located on the front of the panel.

A cordless ESD (Electrostatic Discharge) wrist strap does not work by grounding the person in the same way as a traditional wired wrist strap. Instead, it works by reducing or balancing the static charge on your body so that you are less likely to discharge electricity into sensitive electronic components.
