Monitoring Soldering Applications

Because of Metcal's unique Direct Power SmartHeat Technology, a Metcal Net Power Meter can help in a variety of applications.


Advanced Tip Selection Techniques

By using the Net Power Meter to measure delivered power, you can determine which tip cartridges to use and how to position them for maximum effectiveness, even for uncommon geometries or loads. Whichever tip cartridge draws maximum power for a given temperature is the proper choice.


Training Aid

By monitoring the power applied to a task, not the temperature or pressure, you can check to see if you are using your Metcal System correctly.


Reflow Indicator

The Net Power Meter can be used as a reflow indicator when removing SMT components.


Quantitative Verification

The Net Power Meter provides immediate quantitative lab or bench-top verification of the Metcal System's performance, from time on the joint to correct tip selection.


Troubleshooting

The Net Power Meter can also be used to troubleshoot power supplies, handle cords, and tip cartridges.
