Page 4 of 21 WR 3M

The desired temperature can be adjusted in the range of 150°F to
999°F for hot-air tools and the WSP150 Soldering Iron; 150°F to
850°F for all other soldering / desoldering tools. Set and Read values
are displayed in digital form. Three Radio Buttons are used to select
fixed / pre-set temperatures directly. The Heater Control Indicator
("a“ symbol in the display), along with a green LED above the port
being monitored, flashes to indicate when the Set temperature has
been reached.

4.1 Tools and Holders

When not in use all tools should be placed in their proper Tool
Holder.

HAP 200: ( WR3000M )

The HAP 200 Hot Air Tools 200 watt heater produces a temperature
range of 122°F (50°C) to 1000°F (550°C). The integrated finger
switch and a wide assortment of nozzles make it suitable for multiple
applications, including soldering or desoldering surface mount
components using hot air. The ionizing circuit incorporated in the tool,
along with the antistatic handle and hose, provides static free hot air.

DXV 80: ( WR3000M )

The DXV 80 is an 80W Desoldering Tool with an in-line filter and an
eccentric taper lock system for the desoldering tiplet. The in-line
solder collection chamber is an integral part of the handle and can
easily be changed without the use of tools. This tool has a wide
range of available desoldering tiplets for multiple applications.
Vacuum is activated by depressing the finger switch located on the
handle.

WP 80: ( WR3000M )

The WP 80 Soldering Iron is characterized by fast heat-up and
precise control of the soldering tip. Due to its slim design, 80W heater
output and short reach ( tip to grip ), this tool can be used for a
variety of applications, from extremely fine soldering tasks to those
requiring high temperatures.
