1. Description

1.1 Control Unit

The WAD 101 is a hot air station that features a wide variety of functions. As a result of
the use of a microprocessor, the unit is straightforward and easy to use. The digital
control electronics ensure optimal regulation behaviour with different soldering tools.
The soldering tools themselves are detected automatically and assigned the appropriate
control parameters. Excellent dynamic behaviour is made possible by the particularly
powerful 24 W heater elements. The soldering tool is thus of universal application.
The required temperature can be set via 2 buttons (Up/Down). Temperatures from 50°C
- 550°C (122°F - 999°F) are realisable with hot air soldering tools. When a soldering
iron is connected, the adjustment range is automatically limited to max. 450°C (842°F).
Required and actual values are displayed digitally. A flashing red LED indicates when the
selected temperature is reached, this LED serves as an optical regulator monitor. The
continuous illumination of the LED indicates that the system is warming up.
The air flow is controlled via a finger operated switch integrated in the handle. The flow
rate can be adjusted continuously over the range from approx. 0-10 l/min via a control
valve. The hot air output is free of static charge.
Various methods of equipotentially bonding the soldering iron bit, a zero voltage
switch, and the anti-static design of the control unit and soldering tools supplement
the high standard of the unit. The possibility of connecting an external input unit
extends the functional diversity of this hot air station. Additional functions including
timing and interlocking can be realised using the WCB 1 and WCB 2 Input Units,
available as optional extras. The extended features of the WCB 2 Input Unit include an
integrated temperature measurement unit.
1.2 Soldering irons
HAP 1: 100 W hot air soldering tool with integrated finger switch. Suitable for
soldering and desoldering surface mounted components. A wide range
of nozzles makes the tool of universal application.
LR 21: Our "standard" soldering iron. With a power of 50 watts and a wide
spectrum of soldering tips (ET series) this soldering iron can be used
anywhere in the electronics sector.
MLR 21: With its 25-watt power and slim design, this micro-soldering iron is
especially well-suited for fine soldering work with a low heating
requirement.
MPR 80: The Weller Peritronic MPR 80 soldering iron has an adjustable working
GB
angle of 40° to enable an individually ergonomic soldering process.
The 80-watt power and slim design makes this soldering iron suitable
for fine soldering work.
WTA 50: The unsoldering tweezers WTA 50 were specially designed for unsoldering
SMD components. Two heating elements (2 x 25 watts), each with its
own temperature sensor, ensure constant temperatures at both ends.
LR 82: High-performance 80 watt soldering iron for soldering work with high
heat requirements. The soldering tip is attached by a bayonet catch to
ensure correct position when using different tips.
WSP 80: The soldering iron WSP 80 is characterized by its capacity for reaching
the soldering temperature quickly and precisely. Its slim design and
heating power of 80 watts makes universal usage possible - from
extremely fine to high-temperature soldering work. Work can be
continued immediately after switching soldering tips, since the
temperature is reached again quickly.
