Metcal CVC Soldering Tips / Solder Tip Cartridges.
CVC-, SMC- solder tip cartridges are the standard soldering tip range for the Metcal CV-5200, CV-500, MX-500, MX-5200 and MX-5200 series soldering systems. All cartridges are available in 4 temperature ranges.
600-series nominally 330 ˚C.
700-series nominally 390 ˚C.
800-series nominally 440 ˚C.
900-series nominally 470 ˚C.
The temperature/series is designated by the by the first digit in the numerical part of the part number.
600 will all be CVC-/SMC-0xx.
700-series will be CVC-/SMC-7xx
800-series will be CVC-/SMC-8xx
900-series will be CVC-/SMC-9xx.
Metcal recommends the 700-series for the majority of applications. 600-series for light load or low temperature applications. 800/900-series for high temperature and thermally demanding applications.
Can be used with leaded and lead-free solder. The Metcal SmartHeat®-Technology will adjust delivered power during soldering to suit the application.
700 = FR4/Fibre Glass for most standard applications.
