Model 10509 High Capacity Single Probe Resistance Soldering System       

User Information and Instruction Sheet
Summary: This American Beauty® Soldering System has been assembled for your convenience, in order to help eliminate confusion when ordering equipment to be used for most of your high capacity soldering and thermal management applications.
Description: System Description: This System consists of a Model 105B2 (1100 watt) Power Unit, a Model 10511 Single Carbon Electrode Handpiece a Model 10512 Current Return Lead with standard electrical clamp and a Model 10519 Footswitch.
  • Power Unit Description: The Model 105B2 Power Unit has a low-voltage, high amperage, selectively variable output, isolated transformer. The output voltage is 1.2-5.8 VAC (with no load), selectable through a multi-tapped primary switch and three secondary taps. This Power Unit may be adapted to automated and fixtured production tooling. For more detailed information please read the Information/Instruction sheet included with the Power Unit in this Kit.
  • Handpiece Description: The Model 10511 is a Standard Single Carbon Electrode Handpiece. It is supplied with a 1/4" x 3" (6.35 mm x 76.2 mm) Copper-Clad Carbon Electrode. This Handpiece features a heavy-duty Bakelite handle for operator comfort and is assembled with Nickel-plated steel heat baffles for cooling and Nickel-plated steel electrode holders for fast efficient heat. It is equipped with a four-foot (1.22 m) 10 AWG high-stranded DLO cable (for flexibility) with a taper pin quick connect terminal for connection to American Beauty® Power Units (push in turning clockwise until snug). The Handpiece weighs only 6 ounces complete, which minimizes operator fatigue. Electrodes may be inserted straight into the Handpiece or at a 45-degree angle, depending on your application requirements. The Model 10512 Current Return Lead is supplied with a standard electrical clamp and a four-foot (1.22m) 10 AWG high stranded DLO cable (for flexibility) with a taper pin quick connect terminal for connection to American Beauty® Power Units (push in turning clockwise until snug). For more detailed information please read the Information/Instruction sheet included with the Handpiece in this Kit.
  • Footswitch Description: The Model 10519 Footswitch is a rugged, industrial switch, (wired normally open), with a six-foot (1.83 m) 18-3 SJT cord and NEMA 5-15 P/R piggyback style plug/receptacle. This footswitch is often used, to better control the cycle time needed for an application.
Uses: This System can be used to create accurate, trustworthy solder joints in many applications which include but are not limited to copper tubing, semi-rigid coaxial cable, microwave connectors, motor stators, electrical motor rebuilding applications and general service in electrical equipment manufacture, rework or repair.
Replacement Electrodes/Elements: Model 10526

Duty Cycle: The Power Unit has been rated to operate at a 50% maximum duty cycle. Do not operate beyond this rating.
WARNING: THERE ARE NO USER SERVICEABLE PARTS INSIDE OF THE POWER UNIT. DO NOT ATTEMPT TO OPEN THE POWER UNIT HOUSING FOR ANY REASON, DUE TO THE RISK OF ELECTRICAL SHOCK. ELEMENTS CAN GENERATE A SIGNIFICANT AMOUNT OF HEAT WHEN POWER IS APPLIED. USE WITH CAUTION TO AVOID BURNS, FIRE OR OTHER POTENTIAL DAMAGE. NORMAL USE OF THIS PRODUCT IS LIKELY TO EXPOSE THE USER TO SOLDERS CONTAINING LEAD, WHICH IS KNOWN TO THE STATE OF CALIFORNIA TO CAUSE CANCER AND BIRTH DEFECTS (OR OTHER REPRODUCTIVE HARM) OR OTHER PROPOSITION 65 LISTED CHEMICALS.
