    Quick 861DW What temperature and airflow to use

    Guys,
    what temperature and airflow do you use when desoldering/soldering parts on graphics cards?
    I use Quick 861DW station.
    Is it necessary to use preheater for also for small ICs or for GPU only?

    Thanks for replies

    without preheating soldering take much longer which is not good for components and board. it helps a lot

      90% percent air flow 420 degree Celcius is what I use on my Atten ST-862D

        It's something you have to experiment with each station, even those of the same model due to calibration differences, the nozzle you use and how far/close you have the nozzle. You should experiment on donor boards first.

        The heat and airflow is primarily dependant on the board you are working with. Multi-layer boards with big groundplanes (like on MAC's) take longer to get to temperature as groundplanes are acting like a heatsink. Laptop boards like Compal, Wistron etc take less heat. I have a Quick TR1300 - I use 450 degress at 50 for MAC's, 430/40 for PC lappies. Temps/airflow get adjusted up a bit if the component isn't moving after more than a minute.

        Thermal stress can be an issue for some components like memory IC's. In these cases, a pre-heater will allow you to get in and out much faster as you aren't having to heat up the rest of the board. I usually bring the board up to temp a bit first before going in proper regardless though. Also be careful to let the board cool down before cleaning or testing.

          AcuRite 5 in 1 temperature sensor replacement repair
          by CapLeaker
          Got a new victim:

          AcuRite 5 in 1 Iris outdoor weather station not updating the temperature / humidity anymore. The original sensor is a SHT21. Also there are identical other sensor manufacturers. I chose the HTU21D to replace the original SHT21. Both have identical specs. I've had two failure modes with these sensors.
          A: outside temp stuck at -40? It's cold here at times in Canada, but not that cold!
          B: stuck at some temperature and maybe updating once in 12 hrs or so.

          Easy solution is to go to AcuRite website and purchase the sensor. Right?...

          Temperature to remove chips from motherboard
          by asdas09
          What temperature with the heat gun should be use to remove large and small chips from the laptop and mobilephones motherboard? My problem is that the chips not easily remove from the motherboard, example 380°C degrees. I don't know if there is a difference with the devices that the temperature is not stable with them even it shows the right temperature, what should it be? I don't know if I should use higher temperature but the risk of destroying other components?

          I have device Sugon 202. I'm used also normal flux and rosin flux.

          ISL95880HRTZ desoldering temperature
          by Dreigas
          Hello,

          I bought from China ISL95880HRTZ (3+1+1 Voltage Regulator with Expanded ICCMAX Register Range Supporting IMVP8 CFL/CNL CPUs) chip, which I think is not the original one, but anyway, I tried to resoldering it with a 380C hot air station. Seems soldering is pretty good, but the laptop doesn't work (it worked before, but still had some problems with power delivery).
          Is there any big chance, that they sent me two fake ISL95880HRTZ chips or did I just use too big temperature for desoldering? I will try with another chip, but I can't find any info about the maximum desoldering...

          9V relay temperature 40C
          by jm1234
          Hi, I'm seeing one 9V relay having temperature 40C on its 9V (primary) side. Does that seem right? I switched 2 relays on that board and the temperature was the same (on the same position), so I'm sure it's not a faulty relay. I measured voltage on that relay and it was 9.5V DC, so that looks good. I don't see any other relay on that board having that kind of temperature and they have 9V on them too.
          I thought maybe the transistor that is switching this relay keeps switching on/off, so I also checked for AC and there was almost none: 0.3V using mV range. No steady frequency was shown, but...

          EuropAce EWC 3108 Wine Chiller - Seems like no temperature sensor input
          by beetle1303
          Received this dual doors dual temperature control wine chiller with some unusual issues:
          1) On powered up, all the electronics seemed to be working properly - lights, temperature settings, current temperature, etc, all displayed correctly. But sometimes both zones will get chilled, sometimes upper zone only, and sometimes lower zone only. The temperature displays will show the correct temperature as it chilled (I placed a stand-alone thermometer inside and they compared correctly)
          2) However, the chilling does not stop at the set temperature.
          3) When both zones are chilling,...
