2 Description
The Weller WDH 10T / WDH 20T Switching Tool Stand, as opposed
to a standard Tool Stand, provides a switching function that is
activated by the soldering station. A microswitch integrated in the
Switching Tool Stand is actuated when the soldering tool is placed in
the holder or removed.
When the Switching Tool Stand is placed into a Digital Weller
Soldering Station the Tool Stand and the Temperature SETBACK
functions are automatically detected.
Several Switching Tool Stands can be connected together at the
side.
There is a risk burning if you touch the hot soldering tool.
Z Always place the soldering iron in the Switching Tool Stand.
1. Carefully unpack the Switching Tool Stand.
2. Ensure that the soldering station to be connected to is off.
3. Insert the 7-pin plug (3) of the Switching Tool Stand connecting
cable at the soldering station tool receptacle and lock it by turning
clockwise slightly.

4 Operating Guidelines
4.1 Temperature decrease (SETBACK) and
automatic switch-off time (AUTO-OFF) with
connected Switching Tool Stand
The SETBACK time and AUTO-OFF time can be set at the control
unit (WD1, WD2, WD1M, WD2M and WR 3M units), or are
permanently specified (WSD and WRS units).
After placing the soldering tool in the Switching Tool Stand, the
temperature decreases and/or the system shuts down, depending on
the setting at the control unit. The respective switching action is
displayed in the following table.

With the WSD and WMD devices, only the settings 0/0 and ON/TIME are possible, whereby the respective
time values for SETBACK (20 minutes) and AUTO-OFF (60 minutes) are permanently specified. With
these device types, deviating SETBACK times are only possible with the external input device WCB2.
2)
Outside the Switching Tool Stand, the soldering tool always remains at the set specified temperature.
The holder function is activated after the first time the soldering tool is deposited.
3)
The STANDBY temperature must be below the set specified temperature; otherwise the SETBACK
function is inactive.

NoteObserve the Operating Instructions of your control unit when setting
and switching the SETBACK and AUTO-OFF functions on and off.
4.2 Switching valve control with Switching Tool
Stand on/off (WAD101)
When operating a soldering iron with inert gas and when using the
Switching Tool Stand, the valve control must be set at the WAD 101
control unit. Two switching conditions are possible:
− A-1: the valve control is switched on. The valve is activated by the
Switching Tool Stand with the ON/OFF function. In this operating
condition, the SETBACK function "OFF" is not available.
− A-0: the valve control is switched off. The SETBACK function is
available without restrictions.
NoteObserve the Operating Instructions of your control unit when
setting the valve control function.
5 WDH 10T / WDH 20T: maintenance and
care
The sponge should be cleaned regularly to remove solder residue
using distilled water only.
