Re: CPC desoldering station offer (again)
i recomend adding an inline filter.
the one in the handpiece is not great, and i lost 2 weller pumps to poor filters!!!

cant argue that price!!Comment

Re: CPC desoldering station offer (again)
i find setting it to 260 is enough for anything.Comment

Re: CPC desoldering station offer (again)
This is true most of the time except when you have double sided boards with very large ground planes then you have to maximize the temperature setting to all the way ON and maybe a hot air temperature controlled gun also together
Most of the time I have mine set a 775* F unless I am doing a single sided board then I have it set to 550 to 650* FLast edited by sam_sam_sam; 01-19-2019, 10:50 AM.Comment
CPC desoldering station offer (again)

I have wanting to do this project for quite sometime now and I finally found a switching power supply that will work on this desoldering gun station ZD-915 that the original switching power supply took a shit and just was not worth trying to fix it because this switching power is not quite big enough to handle the heater element and the vacuum pump
One note when I tested the switching power supply and the voltage control board I noticed that this desoldering gun heat up much faster than the original switching power supply which I was really surprised by to the point that I might buy... -
Hi everyone!
Three years ago I got a ZD-915 desoldering station which failed just after a few months of light use. During a short desoldering session, the station simply shut down, and since then it has been completely dead and unresponsive. The failure was silent, without any pops.
Due to a lack of time, I set it aside and didn't look at it.
Yesterday, I took it apart and did some basic measurements. The 18v terminal shows 0v. In addition, there is no visible damage to the board itself.
According to replies in 18VDC PSU has dropped to... -
I have been working on this concept for quite some time now with limited success but recently I found a switching power supply that is setup for the voltage that this soldering station needs to operate at however it also needs part of the secondary circuit from the original switching power because you need several voltage rails
I once tried to get a ZD-915 desoldering station to work on a 18 volt battery power supply but unfortunately things did not go well but I did find a work around but I might try this idea again but going at a little differently more about this another time... -
Hello all,
I tried to power on my desoldering station ZD915 today and altough the LCD has power and it's on I don't have any indications on the screen and the gun is not heating at all.
I open it up and I don't see any visual fault anywhere.
Does anyone has any clue what should I check? -
just did one.
works great.
so here's the discoveries.
the pump "modules" have 4 parts, the main body, the outside bit, the inside bit - screwed to the main body, and the diaphram.
the failure is the inside bit, it has a rubber coating for some reason that becomes tacky and breaks down - contaminating the diaphram.
so you need to clean everything to get rid of all the tacky black stuff.
then reassemble it.
*BUT*
you must put the 2 screws into the assembly only finger-tight.
if you tighten it properly the valves dont work....
