Electrolube’s Safewash Total provides cleaning performance to military and commercial standards. It is a specially formulated blend of non-flammable solvents which form a micro-emulsion when mixed with water. Designed for cleaning printed circuit boards, it can be used for the removal of leaded, lead-free and no-clean flux residues. The cleaner is also suitable for the removal of pastes and adhesives from screens, stencils, boards and accessories, as well as general degreasing applications.
Safewash Total is a low-foam cleaner suitable for use in dishwasher and in-line pressure systems, as well as ultrasonic and spray-under-immersion applications. Supplied as a concentrate, the product has an inbuilt corrosion inhibitor allowing for the safe cleaning of sensitive metals, including copper and aluminium. It is also harmless to plastics in typical application temperatures and cycle times, although testing is always advised in the specific application prior to large scale use.
Cleaning efficiency can be maintained, even after many uses, by regularly filtering the Safewash Total solution to remove contaminants. A variety of methods including refractive index, pH and electrical conductivity can be used to determine the contamination level of the solution. The most suitable method will depend on the type of residue being removed.
Safewash Total has the versatility to allow cleaning using an array of different equipment and methods and, being surfactant free, it is also very easy to rinse.
