Model M3 Wave Solder Pot is shown above with Model C3 Wave Fluxer. Both are equipped with a nozzle and fixture to solder a small electrical assembly.  

Example of how it works:
"The operator first places the assembly on the fluxer and presses a foot pedal.  A timer controls the flux flow to about one second.  The assembly is now placed on the wave solder pot fixture and another foot pedal is activated.  A timer controls the solder flow to about two seconds. 
   The cycle is now complete and the assembly is removed."

 

Model M3 or M5 wave solder pot includes a remote digital thermostat and wave control. The wave is actuated with a footswitch, and a solder drain valve is standard. This model is shown fully nitrogen-inerted, and ceramic coated. for lead free solder.

Any Wenesco wave solder pot can be retrofitted to operate with nitrogen gas, as a cover, to eliminate the formation of dross (oxide).  This feature is especially desirable  when the pot is used in automatic high production applications

Model M14 Wave Solder Pot shown with 10"x3" wave nozzle and a solder level switch that controls an automatic solder feeder.  This equipment will be used in an automatic machine for soldering connectors.

Model M4 Wave Solder Pot, with 6 in.wide wave nozzle, shown with Model SRA6 adjustable slide rails. The rails are 32 in.long and adjust from 2 to 7 in wide.  Flux is typically brushed or sprayed on the pcb, before sliding it across the solder wave.

 

Special solder nozzles shown installed in model M5, for soldering leads to pins on bobbins, while the center plastic post is prevented from coming in contact with molten solder.    In this instance, the twin nozzles are positioned for use with a fixtured turntable to solder two bobbins in one dipping cycle. (Note: the green liquid was used in place of molten solder to better illustrate the application.)

 

Model M14 Wave Solder Pot, with 12 in wide wave nozzle, shown with Model SRB12 slide rails, with attached adjustable pcb holder. The rails are 60 in long and the sliding board holder is adjustable from 2 to 13 inches. An optional foam fluxer and preheater may be added to this system.

 

Model M6 shown here with 2 x 6 inch nozzle and footswitch.  All parts touching the solder have been coated for lead-free operation.

 

Model M14 Wave Solder Pot with Model SRP12 slide rails. These slide rails are 78 in. long and may be angled up to 7 degrees. A removable pallet with titanium fingers is included. The pallet is adjustable to hold a panel up to 12 X 18 in. long.  After loading the panel, the pallet is manually moved along the rails.. The system is shown with an optional wave fluxer, preheater, nitrogen inerted wave solder pot, and automatic solder feeder to maintain solder level.
