    The quality and speed of soldering depends, among others from the selection and appropriate tools enabling fast and accurate work. For electronics, the power of the device is important, appropriately selected for the type of soldered elements, as well as the mode of operation.

    If easy transport is an important factor when choosing, it is worth choosing gas or battery models.

    In gas soldering irons, the tip is heated by a gas powered burner (most often it is propane-butane). They can also be used without a tip to obtain a small heat gun, useful e.g. for working with heat shrink elements.

    The Weller Pyropen Piezo gas soldering iron is an excellent example of a device that combines high power, excellent workmanship and easy maneuverability.

    Photo The Weller Pyropen Piezo gas soldering iron


    It is a soldering iron for universal use. Suitable for soldering, hot air heating and open flame operation. The soldering iron is light, easy to use and can be refilled with gas quickly and easily. It has a built-in window to control the gas level. The high temperature protects the soldered materials from oxidation, so you can contactlessly solder IL and MOS-LSI boards, solder paste, heat-sealable wires and PVC components.

    The Weller Pyropen Piezo is an example of a very efficient, adjustable soldering iron with a very long duty cycle.

    The stronger the soldering iron, the faster it will reach a higher temperature. The gas Weller model allows for temperatures from 250 to 500 ° C (soldering iron), 650 ° C (hot air nozzle).

    It also provides comfort during work - thanks to its low weight - 126 g - the hand will not be too strained, especially during long-term soldering.

    - Infinitely adjustable from 20 to 60 W
    - Includes hot air nozzle
    - 3.0 mm chisel-shaped soldering tip

    It can work on the drama for 15 minutes, but it depends on the capacity of the gas tank, I have soldering by iroda soldepro 120 and solder on it for 1.5 hours.

    How do you convert flame temperature to watts?

    @ Conrad.pl your posts put a smile on your face :D

    Based on the heat released per unit time at a given gas flow.

    But then it protects against oxidation, let's call it, a "protective atmosphere", not heat. In my opinion, high temperature accelerates oxidation rather than protects against it

    It's also good to have the right gas for these soldering irons. There are a lot of fakes on our market. A simple example of lighters is enough - you buy a factory-loaded lighter, e.g. from Ronson, it runs out of gas, you fill it from a container with the Ronson inscription. The end result is usually like this - the lighter has half the flame, if it can be fired at all! The same happens with the burners of gas soldering irons.

    It concerned hot air soldering of smd systems. Only in this case it is not hot air, but exhaust gases. There is no oxygen in them so the elements do not oxidize. At least in theory.

    It always is.
    But buddy - do you expect reliable information from Conrad.pl? Are you mad? It's not real :P


    Of course, high temperature accelerates oxidation. So what if there's no oxygen in what comes out of the nozzle, but it's in the air.
    This entry makes no sense, which you noticed before I even spoke.

    @ Conrad.pl where (in which direction) are the exhaust gases directed during soldering with a tip?

    The exhaust gas outlet is usually directed to the side, in front of the soldering iron.

    @Kot mirmur thanks, but I would like to know how it is in this particular model.

    You can see in the pictures, it is exactly as I wrote before - the gas outlet is right in front of the tip. There is always one outlet and it carries the hot exhaust gas to the side. Go to the manufacturer's website, you will find nice photos of all burner accessories - nozzles, soldering tips, etc.

    There are many gas soldering irons on the market.
    The problem is that it should be "handy" at work.

    I have a gas soldering iron for PLN 70.00 gross and it works very well.
    There is also "piezo".
    For a much shorter tip than this - it is very important - also replaceable tips.
    I also use it for minor repairs of electronics in the field.
    I use it to replace transistors on printed circuit boards.

    In my soldering iron for PLN 70. it's the same.
    You have to be careful not to burn your finger or "heat up" what is not needed.
