THE TIME-SAVING TRIGGER GRIP

Upgrade Your ProcessesIn the electronics world, everything is alwayschanging. But at many facilities, the onlything that doesn’t change is benchtop clean-ing!

The Trigger Grip™ system instantly upgradesyour cleaning program. It standardizescleaning into a convenient four-step pro-cess: wet, scrub, rinse, and dry. It gives eachtechnician better control of the wholecleaning process. The Trigger Grip will helpthem clean better, faster and more safely,with less wasted solvent and less effort.

The payback is fast. Companies using old-style high-pressure aerosols find the TriggerGrip slashes their benchtop cleaning costsby 50% or more. Here’s how Micro Care canstart saving you money today:

The Solvent MiserTM

The most popular Trigger Grip. Slashes sol-vent consumption, minimizes worker expo-sure to solvent fumes; minimizes user fatigue.Virtually indestructible, including hose andaerosol connectors. Produced from ESD-dis-sipative materials; complies with MIL-STD-2000 requirements. Equipped with the stan-dard brush. The Slo-Flo Solvent Miser™

Trigger Grip is identical but equipped withthe money-saving slo-flo brush. Ideal for usewith slow-drying solvents. Patented.

Standard: #MCC-ESDSlo-Flo: #MCC-ESD2

The two-piece Bench MountingKit keeps the can upright andthe work area neat.

The old dip-and-brush method ischeap to buy but expensive touse because it makes rinsingimpossible. Old-fashionedaerosols waste solvent, damagethe environment and exposeworkers to potentiallyhazardous fumes.

BRUSHES

Standard surface-mount brush #MCC-SMBSlo-flo version #MCC-SMB2

Long-nose for cleaning pins #MCC-LNBSlo-flo version #MCC-LNB2

Medium size, .020” O.D. #MCC-SR20

Our best-selling brush #MCC-RBNB

The Original Trigger GripTM

Your least expensive choice. The same func-tionality as the SolventMiser, but withoutquite the same durability and with slightlyless ESD protection. Heat shield protects sol-vent dispensing hose. The Slo-Flo StandardTrigger Grip is identical but equipped withthe slo-flo brush. An excellent choice for usewith affordable, slow-drying solvents. Pat-ented.

Standard: #MCC-STBSlo-Flo: #MCC-STB2

BrushesBoth types of Trigger Grips can be fitted fit

replacement brushes. This allows the tech tocustomize the Trigger Grip to fit the applica-tion, saving time and solvent .

Bench Mounting KitA simple idea that works great. A low-cost,

two-piece system that holds the Trigger Gripand the can of solvent vertically at the work-bench. ESD-safe. Extremely durable. ExtendsTrigger Grip life. Ensures that aerosol canswill empty completely.

Simply a better idea! Use this durable stain-less steel nozzle on canned air, freeze spraysand high pressure aerosols. It reduces ESDvoltages generated by plastic spray tubes toa harmless 50 volts or less. The swaggedcorona tip sucks away harmful ESD voltages.Unique plastic sheathing prevents inadvert-ent contact with energized circuits. Patented.

DRY LUBRICANTSCertain Micro Care solvents also serve as

carrier agents for coatings and lubricants. Themost common coatings are silicones (in con-centrations up to 15% or so) and PTFE pow-dered coatings (up to 9%). Most users dilutethe concentrates to 1% by weight.

The nonflammable carrier fluid deposits thecoating in a dipping process. Irregular shapescan be coated as easily as a flat platter. Theprimary benefits are enhanced throughput,improved quality and lower total costs.

These applications usually require customblends from Micro Care. However, the VDXaerosol using PTFE lubricants is very popular.

VDX AerosolA nonmigrating "pinpoint" lubricant for

metal, plastic, ceramic, glass and wood. Plas-tic-safe, nonflammable, ozone-safe HFC car-rier using 1.5% solids. No drips, runs or clump-ing! Much more effective than traditional(wet) lubricants. Great mold release.

SOLVENTS FOR VAPOR CLEANERS

Vapor degreasing is a powerful process forcritical cleaning applications. Compared toaqueous cleaners, vapor degreasers are lessexpensive to buy and to use. They tend to besmaller, simpler, faster, and easier to main-tain. They use less energy, generate less waste,and are gentle on the environment.

Micro Care offers the Vertrel® family ofspecialty solvents for vapor degreasing appli-cations. Vertrel® cleaners are versatile and canremove many types of contamination. Theproducts are easy to re-use and recycle, whichprotects the environment and keeps costsdown. They have almost no aroma, good tox-icity ratings,and are nonflammable, so clean-ing is easy, fast, safe and affordable

DEFLUXERS

Vertrel® CMSIndustry’s first choice for vapor defluxing,

especially on dense, tight, hot PCBs. This prod-uct can clean BGA components and hybridcircuits. Generally plastic-safe, it is extremelyversatile -- it likes R, RA, RMA, synthetic andeven some "no clean" fluxes and pastes.

Vertrel® SMTAggressive. More expensive than Vertrel®

CMS, this would be the best choice in a low-emmission vacuum system. Test on plastics.

Vertrel® XMS PlusMost aggressive. Tailored for the toughest

organic contamination. It can carry the high-est levels of flux loading. Test on plastics.

PARTICULATE REMOVAL

Vertrel® XP Solder balls, metal finings, dust and grit

need Vertrel® XP because it breaks any staticbonds and actually floats the contaminationaway. A great choice for optics and other ap-plications where surfactants are not accept-able. Also an excellent drying agent in appli-cations where there is little contamination andnot a lot of water. No rinsing.

DEGREASING

Vertrel® CCA Nothing beats the cost-effective cleaning

of Vertrel® CCA. Tailored to remove organiccontamination like oils and grease. Safe onmetals, glass, plastics, ceramics and more.

Vertrel® MCA PlusAnother great choice, more expensive but

more powerful. Often selected as the bestchoice for cleaning oxygen systems, vacuumsystems and high-performance degreasing.Test on plastics.

Micro Care Aircraft Flush 2 A near-azeotrope from Micro Care, this

cleaner is optimized for the removal of hy-draulic fluids from aircraft, such as “Skydrol”and fluids based on MIL-5606 fluids. Safe onurethane paints.

Vertrel® CHDThe most powerful degreaser. It removes all

sorts of greases, cutting oils and lubricatingoils. It also can remove silicone residues. Teston plastics. Special Note: Vertrel® CHD is notsuitable for use in vapor degreasers.

DRYING

Vertrel® XDAUse Vertrel® XDA to remove entrapped wa-

ter after an aqueous wash. Optimized forapplications in which large quantities of wa-ter must be removed. Rinsing required.

SILICONE SWELLING

Vertrel® XSiAn excellent choice for those applications

where small silicone tubes or parts need tobe gently but temporarily enlarged. Oftenfound in medical device manufacturing, Ver-trel® XSi is affordable, fast-drying, quick act-ing and generally non-toxic. Special Note:Vertrel XSi is a flammable mixture not suitedfor heated cleaning systems.

Stencil Wiping SystemsFor stencil cleaning rolls, Micro Care only

uses first-quality hydroentangled “non-woven” spunlace material from DuPont. Thispaper is a blend of ultra-pure cellulose paperand an ultra-clean rayon/polyester fabric. Thesynthetic fabric provides great strength whilethe cellulose provides great absorption. Whenyou use Micro Care rolls, you can be assuredthat only DuPont quality will be cleaning yourstencils. Here’s what that quality brings:1 – Lower Fiber & Particle Counts

Micro Care rolls will contain fewer brokenfibers, resulting in less visible contamination100µ or larger. The binders used in cheaperrolls tend to let the paper abrade, yieldinghigher particle counts.2 – Less Ionic Contamination

Sontara does not release any sodium andchloride ionic contamination which could beredeposited on the stencil and boards. Fab-rics not manufactured by DuPont may havehigher extractables, often up to 1% of theweight of the sheet.

3 – Reduced Non-Volatile Residues

Binders often leave white residues whichare highly visible, impair the effectiveness ofconformal coatings and increase the rejec-tion rates during QC inspection.4 – Greater Durability

Sontara papers are completely unaffectedby electronics-grade solvents. Sontara wipesexhibit a tensile strength of up to 400N/90lbs., depending upon the fabric, and will re-tain 75% of this strength even when wet.6 – Consistent Cleaning

Since there are no nonvolatile binders,chemicals, adhesives, or surface finishesadded to the paper during the manufactur-ing process, the fabric is more consistent fromlot to lot, and the wiping process will be morereliable.7 – Greater Absorption

Binders fill the gaps between the fibers inthe fabric, clogging spaces that would oth-erwise absorb solvents, solder paste and ep-oxies. Sontara fabrics lead the industry inpurity, puffiness and softness.
