ST 65 Air Operated Production Desoldering System with SX-100

ST 65 Air Operated Production Desoldering System with SX-100 Description:

There are no complicated controls to worry about with PACE's ST 65 ... just turn a dial to the temperature you need and you're ready to desolder!

Low Cost Production Desoldering Station

The ST 65 Desoldering Station was designed for high volume, production desoldering requirements. Incorporating PACE's famous no-clog SX-100 Sodr-X-Tractor Desoldering Handpiece (see video at right), the ST 65 incorporates a powerful, multistage venturi that is powered by your compressed/shop air source, producing an ultra-fast rise vacuum that eliminates clogging/maintenance issues normally associated with rapid desoldering and rework operations. Because it uses shop-air instead of a large motor-pump, the unit is extremely compact and features an extremely small footprint, easily fitting in areas with limited bench space.

The ST-65 is an economical, yet durable desoldering system with simplified dial and single channel featuring IntelliHeat technology. Designed for easy operation, there is no programming, no display, just a simple twist of a knob! A color-coded diode tells you when you have reached target temperature. The heavy-duty, durable ESD-safe metal housing ensures years of service and the sloped face of the front panel is a standard feature for ease of use. An optional mounting bracket is available to mount the system under a work bench or shelf, preserving precious bench top space. Tips supplied separately.

SX-100 Sodr-X-Tractor: A Better Way to Desolder

PACE revolutionized the electronics industry in the 60's by creating the first self-contained continuous vacuum desoldering system. Now PACE has taken the best desoldering handpiece on the planet and made it better! The SX-100 Solder Extractor has been improved so that is does not clog! The modular heater has been re-engineered to transfer heat better through the length of new SX-100 Tips. SX-100 Desolder Tips will not clog because the isolated hot solder path is designed to stay well above solder melt temperature, preventing even Lead-Free solder from solidifying.

Designed for high volume desoldering operations, the SX-100 features an environmentally friendly/disposable collection chamber to maximize productivity. When the filter is full, just pull out the chamber, pop out the old filter and replace with a new one - all within 15 seconds! If you prefer, the SX-100 can also be used with a re-cleanable glass chamber (included). Optional 2 and 4-sided Pik-Tips allow safe, rapid reflow and removal of a wide variety of TSOP's, QFP's and Flatpacks. Pik-Tips are designed to reflow all the leads on the component simultaneously and incorporate a unique vacuum pick. Once reflowed, the vacuum is activated and the component is lifted off the PCB.

Easily Expands to Increase Capabilities!

The ST 65 is far more than a desoldering station. Its functionality can be easily expanded by adding any one of 8 IntelliHeat compatible handpieces including:

1.) SX-100 Sodr-X-Tractor Desoldering Handpiece (comes with ST-65) 2.) TD-100 Tip-Heater Cartridge Soldering Iron (optional) 3.) MT-100 MiniTweez Micro Tweezer (optional) 4.) TJ-70 ThermoJet Hot Air Handpiece (optional) 5.) PS-90 High Capacity Soldering Iron (optional) 6.)  TP-100 ThermoPik (optional) 7.) TT-65 ThermoTweez Thermal Tweezer (optional) and 8.) TJ-85 ThermoJet Hot Air Pencil (optional).
