Initial operation
Before you operate the unit check if the filling levels of the
electrolyte solution (see also section 8.1.1. and illustration 5.3.
in section 5.3) and of the vaporizer liquid (see also section
8.1.2.) are correct.
6.1
Switch on the unit
Switch on the Lötstar unit with the mains switch on the back of
the unit (
see illustration 4.7
.).
When the unit is switched on with the mains switch, it is
automatically put into „stand-by operating mode“.
The display is now activated and shows the type of unit, for
example indication:
MIG-O-MAT
Lötstar 300
6.2
Switch on the operating mode
Switch the unit into operating mode by pressing the
on/off
key
I/O
at the operating panel for a short period.
The gas reactor is now switched on and the display is lighted.
6.3
Electrolyte filling level check
The operator is asked to check the filling level of electrolyte
solution in the reactor.
The electrolysis process reduces the quantity of electrolyte
solution in the reactor. When using a nozzle of size 0.9, at a
gas pressure of approx. 100mbar a MIG-O-MAT Lötstar 140 for
example consumes about 55 ml/h of water.
A correct filling level is indispensable for proper functioning and
a long service life of the unit. Therefore, check the filling level of
the electrolyte solution in the reactor every day.
Filling OK?
No
Yes
If the filling level has been checked recently and is known to be
correct, press the key
(Yes) on the operating panel to
acknowledge the correct filling level.
If the filling level has not been checked recently, press the key
(
No
) in the operating panel. The unit is now switched off to
allow the filling level check.
