Figure 2-1.—Repair station power unit.• "Spike free" power switching for attached electrical h<strong>and</strong> tools to eliminate damage toelectrostatic discharge components.• Abrading, milling, drilling, grinding, <strong>and</strong> cutting using a flexible shaft, rotary-drive machine.This allows the technician to remove conformal coatings, oxides, eyelets, rivets, damaged boardmaterial, <strong>and</strong> damaged platings from assemblies.• Lap flow solder connections <strong>and</strong> thermal removal of conformal coatings.• Resistive <strong>and</strong> conductive tweezer heating for connector soldering applications.• Thermal wire stripping for removing polyvinyl chloride (PVC) <strong>and</strong> other synethetic wirecoverings.Power SourceThe basic unit houses the power supply, power level indicator, motor control switch, h<strong>and</strong> tooltemperature controls, air pressure <strong>and</strong> vacuum controls with quick connect fittings, positive groundterminal, the mechanical power-drive for the rotary-drive machine, <strong>and</strong> a vacuum/pressure pump. A twopositionfoot pedal, to the left of the power unit in the illustration, allows h<strong>and</strong>-free operation for allancillary (additional) h<strong>and</strong>pieces. The first detent on the pedal provides power to the voltage heatingoutputs. The second detent activates the motor drive or vacuum/pressure pump.H<strong>and</strong>piecesThe h<strong>and</strong>pieces used with the power unit are shown in figures 2-2 <strong>and</strong> 2-3. The lap flow h<strong>and</strong>piece,view (A) of figure 2-2, is used with the variable low-voltage power source. This h<strong>and</strong>piece allowsremoval of conformal coatings, release of sweat joints, <strong>and</strong> lap flow soldering capability. (Lap flowsoldering will be discussed in topic 3.) The thermal wire stripper in view (B) is used to remove insulationfrom various sizes of wire easily <strong>and</strong> cleanly.2-7
