Please read these Operating Instructions and the
attached Safety Information carefully prior to initial
operation. Failure to observe the safety warnings may
result in accident, injury, or risk to health.

The manufacturer shall not be liable for damage result­ing from misuse or unauthorized alterations of the
equipment.

Warning: This product when used for soldering and
similar applications, produces chemicals known to the
State of California to cause cancer and birth defects or
other reproductive harm.

SSaaffeettyy IInnffoorrmmaattiioonn:

:

● Always place the soldering iron in its original
holder

● Remove all inflammable objects from the proxim­ity of the hot soldering tool.

● Use suitable protective clothing to prevent the risk
of burns associated with molten solder.

● Never leave a hot soldering iron unattended.

● Never work on electrically live circuits or com-

ponents.

● Always wear eye protection when working with
soldering and desoldering applications.

The Weller microprocessor-controlled soldering station
WD2M / WD2000M corresponds to the EC Declaration
of Conformity in accordance with the basic safety
requirements of Directives 89/336/EEC and 73/23EEC.

The microprocessor-controlled 2-channel soldering
station WD2M is part of a generation of devices devel­oped for industrial electronic production, including
repair and laboratory applications. Digital electronic
controls, a precision sensor and heat transfer technol­ogy in the soldering tool provides precise temperature
control of the soldering tip.

Fast and precise sensor sampling in the closed loop
control provides tip temperature accuracy and maxi­mum temperature control under load. The soldering
tools are recognized automatically by the WD2M and
the appropriate control parameters are set.

A Factory Control Check function, an Offset value input
option, programmable temperature decrease (Setback )
along with Standby and Lock functions enhance the
functionality of this unit.

The desired temperature can be set in the range
150 °F – 850 °F (50 °C – 450 °C). “Set” and “Read”
(actual tip temperature) values are displayed digitally.
Three Radio Buttons (4) (5) (6) are used for selection of
fixed/preset temperatures. The Heater Control
Indicator flashes (“

~” symbol in the display) when

the “Set” temperature is reached.

33..22 UUSSBBPPoorrt

t

The WD2M has a USB port for remotely controlling the
soldering station and temperatures can be read and
printed using a standard PC and PC software.

When not in use, the soldering iron should always be
placed in the Tool Stand.

The Tool Holder (14) for the soldering iron has four dif­ferent settings, (30-80°) and can be moved to an oper­ator’s preferred position without the use of tools. Areas
have been provided on the rear (15) of the Tool Stand
for placing the soldering tip when not in use. The base
of the Tool Stand contains a sponge (16) for cleaning
the soldering tips. (Note: LT tips require tip retainer for
storage in Tool Stand.)

An extremely powerful 40 W fine soldering iron with
the heating system integrated into the soldering tip.
Thanks to a plug-in system, the soldering tip can be
changed without tools. The soldering tip temperature is
reached rapidly and controlled precisely. Thanks to a
sensor installed in the handle, the soldering iron is
shut off automatically when it is placed in the WMRH
holder. Note: Minimun Tool Temperature 200 °F 100 °C.

The Weller WMRT Tweezers are designed for rework
and repair of precision SMT electronic devices. The
desoldering tip set can be quickly and easily changed
without the use of tools.

The tips are pre-aligned and
additional alignment is not required. The integrated (2
X 40 W) heating elements ensure that the desoldering
tip temperature is reached ver

y quickly and controlled
precisely. The desoldering tweezers are switched off
automatically when placed in the WMRTH tool holder.

4. Technical Data

WWPP8800 ((OOppttiioonnaall)):

:

The WP80 Soldering iron is characterized by fast heat­up 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.

WWMMPP ((OOppttiioonnaall)):

:

The WMP Micro Soldering Iron’s very fast heat-up time
and short reach (tip to grip), makes it ideal for preci­sion SMT electronics. The short distance between the
grip and soldering tip makes precise handling of the
65W soldering iron possible while performing very fine
soldering tasks.

WWTTAA5500 (( OOppttiioonnaall )) :

:

The WTA50 Desoldering Tweezers were designed
specifically for desoldering SMT components. Two heat­ing elements (2 x 25W), each with its own temperature
sensor, maintain the same temperature on both tweezer
tips.

WWSSPP115500 (( OOppttiioonnaall )) :

:

The WSP150 Soldering iron is an especially powerful
tool for soldering tasks with extremely highheat
requirements. ( Note: Only one channel is active when
this Soldering iron is used. )

See Accessories for a list of other soldering tools that
can be connected.

Take care when unpacking the unit and accessories.
Place the soldering tools in the safety rest. Insert the
soldering iron plug into the connection socket (8) and
(9) of the control unit and lock by turning slightly to the
right. Verify the supply voltage matches the specifica­tion on the Base Unit Label and that the Power Switch
(7) is Off. Connect the control unit to the receptacle (12)
on the rear of the control unit and plug into a properly
grounded receptacle. Switch On the unit at the Power
Switch (7). The unit performs a self-test when it is
switched “On”, whereby all LCD Icons are briefly dis­played (1).

Following this, the “Set” temperature of the active
channel is displayed for a brief period. The electronic
system then switches automatically to the “Read”
value. The "

~" symbol appears and the three fixed

temperatures of Radio Buttons

11 ,II--IIII--IIIIII,

,

and

are dis-

played. The "

~" symbol serves as a Heater Control
Indicator. The “Set” temperatures for channel 1 and 2
appear in small form in the display. The “Active” chan­nel is labeled with an arrow underneath it. In addition
to this, the displayed channel is indicated by a red LED
next to the connection socket. The "

~" symbol and the
green LED on the connection socket are used as a visu­al control check. Flashing indicates the “Set” tempera­ture has been reached and the tool has stabilized.
