PowerClean™

PowerClean™ is arguably the world’s strongest ozone-safe solvent not based on trike, methylene chloride or nPB. It easily flushes away lead-free residues, oils, inks and some conformal coatings without the problems of white residues. This solvent is very effective on lead-free solders and any other contamination found on circuit boards. It is used for defluxing, degreasing, cleaning connectors, removing light oxides and cleaning flux-covered pallets. Importantly, this solvent prevents the formation of white residues. It is ideal for heavy-duty jobs such as defluxing lead-free circuit boards, removing conformal coatings or or degreasing metal components. It quickly dissolves and rinses flux residues, dirt, moisture, dust and oxides from electronic components. It's widely used in electronics, laboratories, clean rooms and aerospace manufacturing.
Use on all circuit boards, hybrids, connectors and soldered connections. Noncorrosive and fast drying, low odor and nonflammable. This cleaner is safe on most components, insulators and connectors but may attack soft plastics. Test before use.    PW2973     FR2794BG
