Properties of lead free solder
Servicing solder
Solder with an alloy composition of Sn-3.0Ag-0.5Cu or Sn-0.7Cu is recommended.
Although servicing with leaded solder is possible, there are a few precautions that have to be
consequent malfunctions.)
Precautions when using leaded solder
- Remove all lead free solder from soldered joints when replacing components.
- If leaded solder should be added to existing lead free joints, mix in the leaded solder thoroughly
after the lead free solder has been completely melted (do not apply the soldering iron without
solder).
Servicing soldering iron
A soldering iron with a temperature setting capability (temperature control function) is
recommended.
The melting point of lead free solder is higher than leaded solder. Use a soldering iron that
maintains a high stable temperature (large heat capacity), and that allows temperature adjustment
according to the part being serviced, to avoid poor servicing performance.
