INFORMATION ABOUT LEAD-FREE SOLDERING 

 
Philips CE is producing lead-free sets from 1.1.2005 onwards.  
IDENTIFICATION: 
 
Regardless of special logo (not always indicated) one must treat all sets from  1 Jan 2005 onwards, according next rules: 

Example S/N: 

 
Bottom line of typeplate gives a 14-digit S/N. Digit 5&6 is the year, digit 7&8 is the week number, 
so in this case 2005 wk12 
 
So from 0501 onwards = from 1 Jan 2005 onwards 
 
Im p o rta nt  note :  In fact also product s of  year 2004 must be treated in this way as  long  as 
you avoid  mixin g  sold er-alloys ( leaded/ lead -free ). So best to always use SAC3 05 and the 
higher temperatures belo n g  t o  t h is. 
 
Due to lead-free technology some rules have to be respected by the workshop during a repair: 
 

• 

Use only lead-free solder alloy Philips SAC305 with order code 0622 149 00106. If lead-free solder-paste is required, please contact 
the manufacturer of your solder-equipment. In general use of solder-paste within workshops should be avoided because paste is not 
easy to store and to handle. 

 
• 

Use only adequate solder tools applicable for lead-free solder alloy. The solder tool must be able  

o 

To reach at least a solder-temperature of 40

o 

To stabilize the adjusted temperature at the solder-tip  

o 

To exchange solder-tips for different applications. 

• 

Adjust your solder tool so that a temperature around

−

 is reached and stabilized at the solder joint. Heating-time of the 

solder-joint should not exceed ~ 4 sec. Avoid temperatures above 400     otherwise wear-out of tips will rise drastically and flux-fluid 
will be destroyed. To avoid wear-out of tips switch off un-used equipment, or reduce heat. 

• 

Mix of lead-free solder alloy / parts with leaded solder alloy / parts is possible but PHILIPS recommends strongly to avoid mixed 
solder alloy types (leaded and lead-free).  
If one cannot avoid or does not know whether product is lead-free, clean carefully the solder-joint from old solder alloy and re-solder 
with new solder alloy (SAC305). 

• 

Use only original spare-parts listed in the Service-Manuals. Not listed standard-material (commodities) has to be purchased at 
external companies. 

• 

Special information for BGA-ICs: 
- always use the 12nc-recognizable soldering temperature profile of the specific BGA (for de-soldering always use the lead-free 
temperature profile, in case of doubt)  
- lead free BGA-ICs will be delivered in so-called 'dry-packaging' (sealed pack including a silica gel pack) to protect the IC against 
moisture. After opening, dependent of MSL-level seen on indicator-label in the bag, the BGA-IC possibly still has to be baked dry. 
(MSL=Moisture Sensitivity Level). This will be communicated via AYS-website. 
Do not re-use BGAs at all. 

• 

For sets produced before 1.1.2005 (except products of 2004), containing leaded solder-alloy and components, all needed spare-parts 
will be available till the end of the service-period. For repair of such sets nothing changes.

SERVICE INSTRUCTION 

1.  Unplug the AC Power cord and connect a wire 
     between the two pins of the AC Power plug.
2.  Set the AC Power switch to the "on" position (keep the
     AC Power cord unplugged!).
3.  Measure the resistance value between the pins of the 
     AC Power plug and the metal shielding of the tuner or 
     the aerial connection on the set. The reading should be 
     larger than 4.5 Mohm (For U.S. it should be between 
     4.2 Mohm and 12 Mohm).
4.  Switch "off" the set, and remove the wire between the 
     two pins of the AC Power plug.

Safety regulations require that after a repair, the set must be returned in its original condition. Pay in particular attention to
the following points:

·     Route the wire trees correctly and fix them with the
      mounted cable clamps.
·     Check the insulation of the AC Power lead for external
      damage.
·     Check the strain relief of the AC Power cord for proper 
      function.
·     Check the electrical DC resistance between the AC Power
      Plug and the secondary side (only for sets which have a AC
      Power isolated power supply):

•

    Check the cabinet for defects, to avoid touching of any 

      inner parts by the customer.
