1. Description

1.1 Control unit

The soldering stations WSD 80 and WSD 50 are a part of the range of products which were
developed for industrial manufacturing as well as for the repair and laboratory sector. A
microprocessor makes operation simple and comfortable. The digital electronic control system
guarantees the best possible control performance for various soldering tools. The soldering
tools themselves are recognized automatically by the soldering station and assigned the
corresponding control parameters. The high-powered 24 V heating elements make excellent
dynamic performance possible, so that the soldering tools can be used universally.
Various equipotential bonding possibilities for the soldering iron tip, zero power switch and
antistatic design of control unit and iron complete the high quality standard. The possibility
of connecting an external input unit further increases the variety of functions of this soldering
station. With the optional input units WCB 1 and WCB 2 it is possible to implement time
functions, locking functions, etc. Integrated temperature gauge and PC interface are included
in the extended scope of the input unit WCB 2.
The temperature is set in a range between 50 °C and 450 °C using two buttons (up/down).
The setpoint and actual value are displayed digitally. A blinking red LED in the display signals
that the preset temperature has been reached – this serves as a optical regulator. Constant
illumination means that the system is overheating.
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 30: The Weller Peritronic MPR 30 soldering iron has an adjustable working angle
of 40° to enable an individually ergonomic soldering process. The 25-watt
power and slim design makes this soldering iron suitable for fine soldering
work.
WT 50: The unsoldering tweezers WT 50 were specially designed for unsoldering SMD
components. Two heating elements (2 x 25 watts), each with its own
temperature sensor, ensure constant temperatures at both ends.
LR 82: High-performance 80 watt soldering iron for soldering work with high heat

requirements. The soldering tip is attached by a bayonet catch to ensure correct
GB
position when using different tips (cannot be used with WSD 50).
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 (cannot be used
with WSD 50).
See "Accessories" for additional tools.

2. Starting

Assemble soldering iron rest (see exploded drawing).Place the soldering iron in the safety
rest. Insert the soldering iron plug into the connection bush (6) of the control unit and lock by
turning to the right. Check that the power supply corresponds to the specifications on the
name plate and that the power switch (1) is in the OFF position. On version that can be
switched, set the voltage on the selection switch (set in the factory to 240 V). Connect the
control unit to the power supply. Switch on the unit at the power switch (1). When switching
on the unit, a self-test is carried out in which all display elements (2) are switched on briefly.
The electronic system then switches automatically to the set temperature and displays this
value. Constant illumination means that the system is overheating. The blinking light signals
that the operating temperature has been reached.
