Features of eClean21 / eClean21F Flux Cleaners

• Legacy Solvent Substitution: The eClean21 series was developed to replace chlorinated solvents such as Trichloroethylene and Methylene chloride. The eClean21F series serves as a high-performance alternative to HCFCs like HCFC-141b and HCFC-225.
• Fast Drying: Features rapid evaporation properties that enhance production cycle efficiency.
• Safety Profile: Non-flammable substances with no flash point, ensuring a safer working environment.
• Cost Efficiency: Supports multiple recycling cycles to ensure low running costs. The products are also characterized by their low odor.

Supported Materials and Contaminants

• Target Contaminants: Lead-free solder flux, water-soluble flux, industrial oils, and printing inks.
• Surface Materials: Printed Circuit Boards (PCB), metals, glass, rubber, and plastics.

2. Room temperature cleaning

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the eClean21 series be recycled?
A: Yes. The solvent can be recovered and recycled for multiple uses, which significantly reduces total operational costs.

Q: Does this cleaner affect plastic components on the circuit board?
A: The eClean21 series may affect certain plastics and is not compatible with materials such as ABS or Polycarbonate. However, the eClean21F series was developed to have a minimal impact on plastics and rubber. We recommend performing a material compatibility test before full implementation.

Q: Is a water rinse required after cleaning?
A: No. eClean21 and eClean21F are formulated to separate easily from water and evaporate quickly, leaving the surface dry without the need for additional rinsing.
