At the IPC APEX EXPO, March 25-27 2014 in Las Vegas, USA, Aqueous Technologies will debut the latest generation cleaning and defluxing technology in Booth #2063. Company representatives will be on hand to demonstrate the capabilities of the Trident ZDO, Trident ECO, Trident Duo, Zero-Ion and StencilWasher-ZDO product lines.

The Trident Duo High-Yield Automatic Defluxing and Cleanliness Testing System provides a cost-effective alternative to inline defluxing systems. Operating on a fraction of the power, water, and chemicals of a traditional inline cleaning system, Trident DUO provides high throughput at a very low operational cost.

The Trident Duo is equipped with two autonomous defluxing chambers. Each chamber is controlled by a dedicated computer controller and may be operated with different defluxing chemistries for maximum flexibility. Additionally, each defluxing chamber is equipped with independent cleanliness testing capabilities and recallable SPC data records. Trident Duo is capable of high throughput levels and is equipped with built-in cleanliness testing technology for clean assemblies every time.

The Zero-Ion is designed to test electronics assemblies for ionic contamination. The cleanliness tester automatically removes and detects contamination on an electrical assembly or bare board and provides quantitative contamination measurements. It uses a dynamic technology that provides automatic regeneration of the machine’s test solution, maintaining a high degree of test solution sensitivity. The Zero-Ion meets the requirements of military and commercial cleanliness testing standards including MIL 2000A, IPC test method 001, MIL-C-28809, MIL-P-55110 and IPC TM650-2.3.26.

The StencilWasher-ZDO Zero Discharge Ultrasonic Stencil Cleaning System is designed to remove all solder paste types including no-clean, rosin, and water soluble as well as all uncured SMT adhesives. StencilWasher-ZDO is equipped with a filtered and recirculated wash system and a fully closed-loop rinse system. All rinse water is captured, filtered, re-deionized, and reused. There is no connection to drain.

StencilWasher-ZDO comes standard-equipped with all of the features required for thorough wash, rinse, dry, filtration, and closed-loop functions, eliminating the need to purchase costly optional items.
