After the component has been removed, there will still be some solder remaining on the pat- tern. Use HOZAN-WICK (desolder braid) such as H-37-1.3 to clean it. Air volume characteristics The blown air volume will vary greatly with the Air volume characteristics number of pipes of the nozzle.
Nozzle selection Various standard nozzles are available for popular chip components. See the latest HOZAN catalog or web site for further reference. Refer to the following chart for applicability. Types of nozzle pipe Straight Thin BGA (CSP) inner dia. 1.18mm φ...
