VIGON RC101 Water-based cleaning medium for manual cleaning of reflow ovens and wave solder systems

Based on the MPC® Technology, VIGON® RC 101 was specifically developed to remove all types of baked-on flux residues from reflow and wave solder equipment. It reliably removes re-condensated fluxes and emissions from assemblies. VIGON® RC 303 is the successor product with increased cleaning performance.

  • Areas of application

  • Advantages compared to other cleaners

    • VIGON® RC 101 has a mild formulation. Therefore, no special labeling is required

    • Excellent material compatibility with aluminum and epoxy surfaces

    • The cleaning agent is also suitable for the pre-cleaning of condensation traps.

    • VIGON® RC 101 has little odor.

    • VIGON® RC 101 has no flash point and therefore can be applied directly onto cold or warm surfaces (30 - 40 °C / 86 - 104 °F).

    • The medium does not contain any ingredients, which could leave residues on the oven surfaces; therefore, avoiding harmful condensations on the assembly surfaces after restarts.

    • Due to the short soaking time, a quick and efficient cleaning process can be achieved and long machine downtimes can be avoided

    • Reduced cleaning agent consumption compared to IPA.

Product Features & Cleaning Standards

  • 100% compliance with EU guidelines (RoHS 1, 2 & 3, WEEE)

  • Product is free of any critical substances according to SIN & SVHC lists

Typical applications

  1. Manual cleaning of reflow ovens and wave solder equipment

    1. Spray directly onto cold or warm surfaces (1l bottle)

    2. Allow cleaning agent to stand for approximately 5 min.

    3. Wipe surface clean with a cloth or paper towel

    4. Air dry

  2. Automated cleaning of conveyor fingers in wave solder equipment

    1. Fill the cleaning reservoir of the wave solder equipment with VIGON® RC 101

    2. Automatic brushing device in wave solder oven wipes conveyor fingers clean

    3. Air dry
