VOC-free flux cleaner

23 October 2013 Manufacturing / Production Technology, Hardware & Services

MicroCare’s new UltraClean product is a benchtop printed circuit board cleaner formulated to deliver high-performance cleaning on lead-free circuits. It has been engineered to meet or exceed all of the different health, safety and environmental restrictions imposed upon cleaning chemistries around the world.

The product uses a totally new solvent formulation, is VOC-free, halogen-free, ozone-safe and safe for people. It is also the first product to use a new, non-flammable propellant which allegedly reduces any global warming impact by 99% or more.

UltraClean does not use water or alcohol in the formulation, and can be used to clean rosin fluxes, synthetic fluxes, ‘no-clean’ fluxes and hard-to-clean lead-free materials used in the assembly and manufacture of printed circuit boards. It can also remove silicone-based glues, coatings and insulators. Because the cleaner dries relatively slowly, it is ideal for rework and repair of PCBs.

Packaged in a 300 gram aerosol, the product is designed to be used with the TriggerGrip cleaning system. It is also available in 3,9 litre, 19 litre and 200 litre packages.
