PCB Labstation

A very popular multi-purpose PCB processing unit specifically developed to satisfy demands fromboth the educational and industrial sectors. The unit features all the advantages of our normal 5 tank processing units with the added benefit of an integral sink with hot and cold water to keep PCB processing clean and efficient . Possible processing sequences are: Develop / Wash / Etch / Wash / Resist Strip OR Develop / Wash / Etch / Wash / Immerse Tin. It is recommended that the last tank be used for tinning and the Photoresist is stripped in the sink with a SN120 strip applicator.

Features of this unit include :

• Choice of Tank sizes
• One piece polypropylene moulded top incorporating a sink and hot/cold mixer tap.
• Three chemical process tanks separated by two integral spray wash tanks.
• 10" x 12" tanks moulded as 'one piece', - eliminates the risk of splits from welds or seams.
• Protected control panel conveniently mounted in the front of the unit which controls heaters, air pumps and spray wash tanks.
• RCD current trip socket supplied as standard.
