Infrared Heating Tool<br />
The infrared heating tool is a self-contained portable unit. The main components are labelled<br />
in Figure 2-7. Infrared heat tools offer several advantages over other methods of heating<br />
solder sleeves including faster shrinking <strong>and</strong> solder flow. Also being less complicated, they<br />
are easier to set up.<br />

Compressed Air/Nitrogen Heating Tool<br />
The compressed air/nitrogen heating tool (illustrated in Figure 2-8) is a portable source of<br />
heat <strong>for</strong> use with heat-shrinkable tubing <strong>and</strong> solder sleeves. As the unit is fully enclosed, it is<br />
approved <strong>for</strong> use on fuelled aircraft. To operate, the heating tool must be connected to an<br />
external source of compressed air/nitrogen <strong>and</strong> power.<br />
