Features

Reliable digital technology by HAKKO – Introducing the HAKKO FX-888D
Excellent thermal recovery

• Heater output has been increased by 30% compared to that of the conventional models HAKKO 936・937. Also FX-888D delivers excellent thermal recovery by using T18 series tips for their terrific heat conductivity.
  This allows soldering at a lower set temperature and reducing the thermal impact on components as well as tip oxidation that can shorten tip life.
• Thermal recovery graph
  Rise time to 350°C is 20 seconds faster and tip temperature drop is reduced during continuous work.
  
• HAKKO FX-888D performance comparison graph with conventional stations Able to shorten the time required for the same work and improve work efficiency significantly.
  Designed to be User-Friendly
  
• Small footprint
  Compact station body requires a space of only 100 (W) x 120 (D) mm. What's more, points that come into contact with the floor are positioned as close to the outer edge of the body as possible to improve stability and make the station difficult to fall over.
• Simple and easy operation
  With only two operation buttons of UP and ENTER in the center, operation is simple and easy. Even if you're not familiar with operation of machines, you can operate it without difficulty.
• Iron holder with full of functions
  An iron holder of the same color of a soldering station comes as a set. The highly functional iron holder not only improves ease of use, but also brings a sense of visual consistency to the work environment.

Strict temperature management

• Digital display
  The FX-888D's digital display makes it easy to check the set temperature at a glance.
  
• Password function
  Settings can be locked using a password to prevent them from being changed unexpectedly. Of course, it is possible to restrict all setting changes or prevent users from switching to particular modes. It allows you to choose a style of usage best suited for your worksite.
• Preset mode
  This feature is very convenient when you want to change the set temperature to suit a particular workpiece, component, or tip shape. Simply select the desired temperature from a selection of preset temperatures registered in advance. (Up to 5 preset temperatures can be registered.) Preset mode can save your trouble and improve workability.
  
• Adjustment mode
  Temperature adjustment* is an essential part of any strict quality control system. With adjustment mode, what used to be a troublesome procedure is now as simple as entering the measured tip temperature to FX-888D.
  *Adjust the tip temperature to match the set temperature in case that there is a difference between those temperatures due to tip shape, heater replacement, or other factors.

• HAKKO FX-8802 N 2 (nitrogen) gas system
  
  A space-saving N2 system. Anti-oxidation and pre-heating significantly improve solderability.
  
  • Example Configuration (N₂ System)
    NOTE
    Soldering station, Iron holder, N2 gas generator, and N2 flowmeter must be purchased separately.
    
• HAKKO FX-8803 One-hand, manual-solder-feed iron
  • Example Configuration (One-hand, Manual-Solder-Feed System)
    NOTE
    Soldering station and Iron holder must be purchased separately.
    
• HAKKO FX-8804 Hot tweezers
  • Example Configuration (Hot Tweezer System)
    NOTE
    Soldering station, cap, and Iron holder must be purchased separately.
