For a period of 12 months (6 months if the equipment operates day and night, even if only occasion­ally), beginning on the day the equipment is ready to be shipped at our plant (in cases where we undertake assembly and/or initial operation, from the day of initial operation), we guarantee good working of the equipment delivered and we promise to repair or replace at will, as quickly and reasonably as possible, any parts which are proven to be faulty in design, material or workmanship. If, during operation and within the period of warranty, any discrepancy appears between the equipment contracted for and the one actually supplied by us, we shall bear the costs incurred in repairing or replacing the faulty parts at our plant. We shall supply and ship at our expense "FOB factory" the replacement material necessary for carrying out the repairs under this warranty on the site. We shall pay the salary and wages of our employees, but the buyer shall pay for the travelling time, as well as their transportation and out of pocket ex­penses. Our liability is limited to direct damages. Our warranty shall not cover replacements or repairs which are due to normal wear and tear, faulty or negligent maintenance, disregard of operating instructions in this manual, overload­ing, use of unsuitable materials, faulty construc­tion of buildings, incorrect assembly work, faulty electrical connections, acts of God, and any other cause beyond our control. Our "General Terms and Conditions of Sale", of which the above text is an excerpt, are bind­ing for all warranty cases.
This document, its contents, and the technology described are strictly confidential. It is provided for assistance to ELVO customers only. It may not be copied, repro-duced or passed on to third parties with­out express, written permission from ELVO ELECTRONICS.
Dear customer
We thank you for selecting one of our ELVO clean-o-point® soldering stations, the new standard in soldering technology. The solder­ing stations answer the need for increased qual­ity control in the soldering process. With the hundred thousands of clean-o-point® tip clean­ers sold in the past number of years all over the world, satisfied customers urged us to integrate this extraordinary tip cleaning system into these new stations. Please read the operating instructions carefully to maximize the advantages of using your new soldering station.
Responsibility for shipment
The moment the equipment is shipped from our plant, the buyer assumes all risks regarding it, in particular but not limited to the risk for dam­age, loss, theft or confiscation. We are liable only for damages which can undeniably be traced to gross negligence of our personnel.
Inspection of goods upon arrival
Remove packing material carefully and keep it for possible storing or return of the unit. After unpacking, check the equipment for pos­sible damage due to transportation. Should this be the case, inform immediately both the for­warder and the carrier. The buyer must exam­ine the equipment within a reasonable period of time and notify us immediately in writing of any defects. Failing such notification the equip­ment is deemed to be accepted.

2.6 MAINS PROTECTION
ELVO soldering stations comply with the requirements of DOD-STD­2001-1, MIL-S-45743E, WS6536E and more. Electronic zerovoltage thyristor switching protects voltage and currentsensitive units and com­ponents against transient voltage spikes (computer, C-MOS compo­nents). Soldering tip is grounded to ensure a voltage leakage of less than 2 millivolt.
2.7 THE ESD WORKING PLACE
The ELVO technology includes a series of precautions for unproble­matic soldering of MOS-electronic elements.
For working on high integrated MOS-elements with very fine struc­tures like VLSI we recommend to build up a working place as men­tioned below.
Please do not use the SL as service ground because it may
be connected with the neutral conductor and consequently may not be free from disturbing voltages (e. g. unsymmetrical three phase mains).
Please note that a short in a defective instrument can induce
a high pulse with voltage peaks of more than 100 V.
!
2.4 MECHANICAL PRECAUTIONS
Avoid subjective procession !
To guarantee a long standing stability in accordance to international rules, referring to security and reliability, all spare parts listed within this manual must be replaced with original items only.
In case of a component failure, only the assembly of an original, recog­nized component, will further the longevity.
2.5 ELECTRICAL PRECAUTIONS
AN ELECTRICAL SHOCK CAN BE FATAL !
It is at the own risk of the operator of an opened appliance, to under stand the resulting danger of the above and to take the corresponding measures to protect third parties. Memorize the dangerous areas, which are exactly described in this manual. You should
never touch simulta­neously circuits and earth connections, during the installation or when servicing.

ELVO E911D/E911A/E912A 13
3.3 TEMPERATURE RANGE
ELVO soldering station delivers the full operating range of 140-450° C (280- 850° F) in the digital version and 150-400° C (300-840° F) in the analog ver­sion without changing tip or heating element. The ceramics heating element ensures the accurate temperature close to the surface of the tip. This results in rapid heat up time of about 45 seconds and instant recovery.
3.3.1 Temperature Stability
Tip idling temperature stability is smaller than ± 3° C (± 10° F), corresponding to MIL requirements. This is accomplished by embedding the thermocouple sensing unit in the bevel of the heating element barrel. The measuring point is nearest to the soldering tip. Only this method allows the closest possible moni­toring of the temperature.
3.3.2 Working Temperature
A too low temperature will slow the solder flow; a high temperature will burn the flux in the solder, which in turn will emit a heavy white smoke in a dry joint, or damage the PCB. When the tip working temperature is set within the cor­rect parameters suited to the particular solder being used a good joint is as­sured. The most common solder alloys used in the electronic industry is 60% tin, 40% lead (60/40). The tip working temperature of the solder is detailed below and can vary from manufacturer to manufacturer:
Melting point: 188° C (370° F) Normal operation: 270-320° C (518-608° F) Production line operation: 320-380° C (608-716° F)
The temperature above 380° C (716° F) should not be used for normal
soldering functions but can be used for short periods of time when ex­cessive heat is required.
Consider the recommendations of the manufacturers of the diffrent components !

3.4.1 clean-o-point
®
- How it works
The clean-o-point
®
cleans tips with a remarkable self-cleaning motorized wiping system that keeps tips clean, prolongs tip life, removes and collects excess solder. Fast 1 second cleaning with damp sponges means no tem­perature loss at the tip, no cold solder points to destroy PC boards.

4.4 clean-o-point® MAINTENANCE
1. Before using for the first time, wash sponges carefully under running water.
2. Rinse sponges under running water once only before begin­ning the shift, and wring well. If the soldering tips are very fine, wring more thoroughly. The sponges retain uniform hu­midity for about 8 hours.
3. Do not wet the sponges by pouring water over them in the unit. Overly wet sponges will cause excessive cooling of soldering tips.
4. Replace sponges when incrusted with rosin (after about 1 month of all-day shifts).
Sponges are much cheaper than soldering tips !
5. Empty solder container before starting each 8-hour shift. Wash and wring sponge rollers well.
Collect solder for recycling !
6. To clean the soldering tip, insert it with a steady movement between the wet rotating sponge rollers. Cleaning takes less than 1 second !
7. Soldering tips cleaned with clean-o-point® have a service life up to 10 times longer than tips cleaned with common flat sponges.

4.1 GENERAL CLEANING
The outer case of iron or station may be cleaned with a damp cloth using little amounts of liquid detergents.
Never submerge the unit in liquid or allow any to enter
the case of the station.
Never use any solvent to clean the case. (Decomposition of the writing and / or deformation on the housing)
4.2 CARE OF TIPS
The tips supplied are iron plated copper and if used properly will give a long life.
1. Always keep tips tinned before switching off or storing for a long period of time; Wipe tip using clean-o-point.
Caution with long hair!
2. Don't keep iron set at high temperature for long periods
as this will break down the surface of the tip.
3. Never clean tips with abrasive materials or files.
4. If any oxide film is formed, this can be cleaned with the clean­ing brush, isoproyl alcohol or equivalent, and then imme­diately reheat and retain the tip to prevent oxidation of wettable surface.
5. Remove the tip and clean every twenty-four hours or at least once a week. Remove any loose build up in the barrel.
6. Do not use fluxes containing chloride or acid.
Use only rosin or activated resin fluxes.
7. Do not use any compound or antiseize materials on the wettable surface.

4.3 TIP REPLACEMENT AND DRESSING
Tip can be replaced simply by unscrewing the knurled nut barrel assembly. The station must be switched off and allowed to cool during this operation, as damage may result if the system is left on without the tip inserted. After removing tip, blow out any oxide dust that may have formed in the tip retaining area of the barrel. Be careful to avoid getting dust in your eyes. Replace the tip and screw back the retaining knurled nut barrel assembly using only firm hand pressure to tighten. Pliers should only be used to tighten the nut to avoid burning your fingers.
Wear protection spectacles!
Care should be taken not to overtighten as this
would damage the heating element.
4.3.1 Commissioning of New Tips
The following procedures should be followed when a new
tip has been installed at any time. It will give the tip much longer life.
1. Set temperature to the minimum, then switch power to "ON".
2. After approx. 1 minute set temperature to 200° C (392° F). (Beginning of scale)
3. Tinn the surface with resin core solder containing collophonium after having reached 200° C (392° F).
4. Set to desired temperature and let it heat for approx. 5 minutes.
5. Ready for use after reaching the present desired tempera­ture.
Important: Remove tip and clean daily if a new tip is
installed and removed any loose build up in the barrel ! (For Tip Selector Charts, see chapter 6 !)
