  • Page 3 The SX-80 Sodr-X-Tractor handpiece provides thermally enhanced through-hole desoldering on extra heavy multilayer assemblies at safer, lower temperatures, even during continuous use. It features a large, easy to replace solder trap. The SX-80 also provides safe removal of TQFP (Thin Quad FlatPack) and TSOP (Thin Small Outline Package) surface mount components and continuous removal of old solder from surface mount lands.
  • Page 4: Handpiece Setup

    If you have a PACE system incorporating only one handpiece, attach the air hose to the SX-80 power cable using the supplied Hose Clamps (P/N 1321-0085-01). Space them evenly along the length of the power cable starting at a point 6 inches from the ends of the handpiece.
  • Page 5 When removing any air hose, turn and pull. Do not attempt to pull hose directly off. Damage to or breakage of fitting or VisiFilter may occur. Use your SX-80 Sodr-X- Tractor with a clean VisiFilter element. Otherwise a deterioration in performance or...
  • Page 6: Tip Selection

    When removing TQFPs or TSOPs, the Pik-Tip should be sized so that the tip blades make proper contact with all the lead/land connections simultaneously. NOTE The SX-80 Sodr-X-Tractor will only use the new Endura line of desoldering tips. Tip Installation For maximum productivity and proper fit, install tips into your SX-80 Sodr-X-Tractor when the heater is hot and the Flux/Sodr trap and door are installed.
  • Page 7: Temperature Setting

    SX-80 Temperature Setting To save tip life and reduce the possibility of damage to the PCB, PACE recommends using the lowest possible tip temperature that will provide rapid yet controllable melt of the entire solder joint. Begin with an operating temperature of 316°C (600°F) and adjust as necessary.
  • Page 8 As the Sodr-X-Tractor is used, solder and flux build-up will begin to impede the airflow and decrease system performance. The SX-80 utilizes a disposable chamber which makes maintenance of the SX-80 a quick and simple process. Regular replacement of the Sodr-Flux Trap will keep the Sodr-X-Tractor operating at peak performance.

  • Page 10: Corrective Maintenance

    SX-80 Corrective Maintenance Your SX-80 requires no special maintenance other than being kept clean. The heater bore and the heater assembly set screw which secures the tip must be kept free of oxidation and debris in order to maintain the proper tip-to-ground resistance.
