Hi,

Long ago, in a past life I had a small batch washer. It was an restraint
grade Hobart machine that had a controller tied in. The controller had a
couple timers and a water conductivity sensor that I never used. One timer
ran a chem feed pump that would add a preset amount of chemical. Another
timer would time wash cycles. 

I used it for years worked great. I only ran small batches of board back
then a max of 50 or so would fit in the units.

Now days all I do are proto boards and I have a little Mini-Mac steam
cleaner by PDQ Precision. This does a great job but it is only for protos.

If I need to do small production again I would find a commercial dish washer
of some type. Depends on what you are cleaning and how clean you need to
get. The really hard parts is getting water under low profile parts.

Subject: [TN] small aqueous wash system

Hi all, is there such a thing as a small aqueous wash system for PCB
assemblies?

I do a lot of prototypes / small scale production runs here and would love a
small wash system.

Thanks
Ken
