1. Description

1.1 Control Unit

The WSD 161 Soldering Station belongs to a family of equipment developed for
industrial production as well for the repair and laboratory sectors. Simple and easy
operation is made possible by the use of a microprocessor. Two different soldering
irons can be operated at the same time on two independent digital temperature
regulators. The soldering irons themselves are automatically identified by the
soldering station and assigned the appropriate control parameters. The particularly
powerful 24 V heater elements provide excellent, dynamic behaviour making the
soldering irons universal in their application.
Various possible ways of equalising potential on the soldering iron tip, a zero voltage
switch, as well as anti-static features on the control unit and soldering irons,
supplement the high standard of quality. The functional diversity of this soldering
station is further expanded by the possibility of connecting an additional input unit.
Using the optional WCB 1 and WCB 2 Input Units, timing and locking functions,
amongst others, can be realised. An integrated temperature measurement unit and PC
interface are included in the extended scope of the WCB 2 Input Unit.
The required temperature can be adjusted over the range 50°C - 450°C via 2 buttons
(Up/Down). Target and actual value are digitally displayed by making the appropriate
selection using the channel button. Achievement of the pre-set temperature is
indicated by an LED assigned to the channel; this LED thus serves as an optical
regulator monitor. Continuous illumination means that the system is warming up.
1.2 Soldering irons
LR 21: Our "standard" soldering iron. With a power of 50 watts and a wide
spectrum of soldering tips (ET series) this soldering iron can be
used anywhere in the electronics sector.
MLR 21: With its 25-watt power and slim design, this micro-soldering iron
is especially well-suited for fine soldering work with a low heating
requirement.
MPR 80: The Weller Peritronic MPR 80 soldering iron has an adjustable
working angle of 40° to enable an individually ergonomic soldering
process. The 80-watt power and slim design makes this soldering
iron suitable for fine soldering work.
WTA 50: The unsoldering tweezers WTA 50 were specially designed for
unsoldering SMD components. Two heating elements (2 x 25 watts),
each with its own temperature sensor, ensure constant temperatures
GB
at both ends.
LR 82: High-performance 80 watt soldering iron for soldering work with
high heatr equirements. The soldering tip is attached by a bayonet
catch to ensure correct position when using different tips.
WSP 80: The soldering iron WSP 80 is characterized by its capacity for
reaching the soldering temperature quickly and precisely. Its slim
design and heating power of 80 watts makes universal usage
possible - from extremely fine to high-temperature soldering work.
Work can be continued immediately after switching soldering tips,
since the temperature is reached again quickly.
WSP 150: Powerful 150W soldering iron for soldering work requiring extremely
high temperatures. Only one channel is active when using this
soldering iron. Extended temperature range of up to 550°C.
See "Accessories" for additional tools.

2. Commissioning
Mount the soldering iron holders (see exploded diagram). Place the soldering iron in
safety holder. Plug the soldering iron connectors into sockets (6) and (9) on the
control unit and lock by turning slightly to the right. Check whether the mains voltage
matches with the information on the rating plate and that the mains switch (1) is in
the off position.
Plug the control unit into the mains (11). Switch on the unit at the mains switch (1).
When the unit is switched on, a self-test is performed during which all the display
