Technical Data Sheet
Flux-Off Tri-V™
Flux Remover
PRODUCT DESCRIPTION
Flux-Off Tri-V Flux Remover is an extra strength
nonflammable solvent that removes heavy and
encrusted flux deposits. This high pressure solvent
system is engineered to remove all types of flux
types while evaporating quickly and leaving no
residues. Tri-V replacement chemistry is a novel
new chemistry that does not contain any n-propyl
bromide, TCE or any ozone depleting compounds.
Powerful cleaning agent to remove R, RA,
RMA, and synthetic fluxes
Removes encrusted fluxes and white residues
Nonflammable, can be used on energized
equipment
Penetrates to clean hard to reach areas
Evaporates quickly and leaves no residues,
minimizes down time
Does not contain n-propyl bromide,
trichloroethylene, or perchloroethylene
Stabilized for metals such as aluminum,
magnesium, titanium, and brass
Noncorrosive, safe for sensitive metals
TYPICAL APPLICATIONS
Flux-Off Tri-V Flux Remover effectively cleans flux
from:
Chip Carriers
Heat Sinks
Metal Housings and Chassis
Printed Circuit Boards
Plugs
Relays and Contacts
Sockets
Surface Mount Device Pads
Switches
TYPICAL PRODUCT DATA AND
PHYSICAL PROPERTIES
* Volatile Organic Compound (VOC) information is calculated on a
weight basis using the VOC definition of California Air Resources
Board (CARB) Consumer Product Regulations, South Coast Air
Quality Management District (SCAQMD) Rule 102 and the Federal
definition published in 40 CFR 51.100(s).
NOTE: As with all vapor degreaser equipment and processes, observe
all safety precautions, guidelines and operating rules associated
with these units. Failure to do so may put operations personnel at
risk. Avoid excessive vapor losses, loss of refrigeration, excessive
boil sump heat, etc. Make sure all equipment is operated in
accordance with the manufacturer’s guidelines and instructions. If
in doubt, contact your manufacturer immediately.

DISTRIBUTED BY:
Flux-Off® Tri-V™ Flux Remover is generally
compatible with most materials used in printed
circuit board fabrication, except acrylics, ABS
resins, polycarbonates and polystyrenes. As with
any cleaning agent solvent/component compatibility
must be determined on a non-critical area prior to
use.
USAGE INSTRUCTIONS
For commercial use only.
Read MSDS carefully prior to use.
For vapor degreasing or ultrasonic cleaning
application, charge sump tank with solvent.
For ultrasonic or soak applications, be sure to cover
tank when not in use to prevent evaporation. Allow
the soiled article to soak for 5 - 10 minutes, then
remove and loosen any remaining soils with a
ControlwipesTM Wipe.
For wipe applications, wet a Controlwipes Wipe
with Flux-Off Tri-V and wipe away soils.
For aerosol applications, spray 4 to 6 inches from
surface to clean. Wash parts from top to bottom,
allowing the liquid to flush away dirt and dissolved
grease. For precise application use attached
extension tube.
