SOLDERING AND CLEANING PROCESSES
For best results, please follow these recommendations: Keep all
switch contacts in their "OFF" position for all operations.
WAVE SOLDERING: Recommended solder temperature at 500 F
(260° C) max. 5 seconds.
HAND SOLDERING: Use a soldering iron of 30 watts, controlled
at 608 F(320° C) approximately 2 seconds
while applying solder.
CLEANING PROCESS: Flux clean using force rinse, high agitation
or triple bath cleaning method. Freon TF
or TE give excellent results. When vapor
methods are used, do not subject the
switch to solvents at temperatures above
125 F (51° C).
Example:
RPL-08-B-T is a Piano Type Dip Switch, Long key, 8
position with top tape sealed.
PACKING
All Dip Switches are shipped in standard IC tubes with
all poles in "OFF" position.
