Electronics Production / Materials production Sensor Soldering stationWELLER TOOLS WFV 60A stop valve for firm’s WX Soldering Station is an automatic valve that opens when the user picks up the soldering iron, and closes as soon as it senses the soldering iron is switched off or is entering into sleep mode. Multiple valves can be used with multiple soldering stations (and also preheaters) in a network all connected to a Zero Smog fume extraction unit. Each valve in this network can be individually pre-adjusted to balance the entire system, providing equal suction through each valve irrespective of pipe length and other system losses.
