Emil Otto introduces nozzle cleaners for various selective soldering systems

The German flux manufacturer Emil Otto GmbH is further expanding its soldering flux product range. In addition to the recently introduced EO-COVERFLUID TESU covering oil, other nozzle cleaners for selective soldering systems are now also available.

"Emil Otto has been offering products for cleaning soldering nozzles for a long time. However, we have never been very active in launching them on the market. This is now changing. The reason for this was the many inquiries from customers and system manufacturers," explains Markus Geßner, Marketing and Sales Manager at Emil Otto GmbH. With the development of further cleaners on customer request, the importance of this product group has changed for the company. Emil Otto will be presenting the entire soldering aid portfolio for the first time at SMT 2018, which includes the EO-COVERFLUID TESU, the various nozzle cleaners and the Tip-Cleaner for cleaning and activating soldering iron tips.

In addition to the flux paste NC-260/RF EO "Nozzle Clean", the cleaning agents EO-NCF-001 and EO-NCF-1003 have been developed. EO-NCF-001 is a special cleaning fluid for automatic nozzle cleaning, while EO-NCF-1003 was developed for general nozzle cleaning. All three cleaning agents achieve very good results in their respective application forms. For example, the cleaning effect on scaling and dross deposits on uncoated solder nozzles of selective soldering systems is very good.

The NC-260/RF EO flux paste can be dispensed precisely thanks to a syringe. The cleaning fluids EO-NCF-001 and EO-NCF-1003, on the other hand, are available in packaging units of 100 ml, 250 ml, 500 ml or 1 l. All cleaning media do not separate during storage. NC-260/RF "Nozzel Clean" and the cleaner EO-NCF-1003 are also 100 % VOC-free.

Emil Otto will be presenting the new products at SMT 2018, in Hall 4A, Stand 144.
