These instructions detail the basic operational guidelines for using the DTP-80 Dual
ThermoPik handpiece.
INTRODUCTION
The DTP-80 Dual ThermoPik handpiece provides safe, one-handed removal of a
wide variety of Quad FlatPacks (PQFPs) in a matter of seconds and can even remove
BGAs (Ball Grid Arrays). The Dual ThermoPik is a member of the PACE
SensaTemp family of advanced handpieces.
CAUTION
Always return heated handpieces to the appropriate Tip & Tool Stand
when not in use. Failure to do so may cause burns to the operator,
equipment or work surfaces and may be a potential ignition source if
combustible materials are nearby. Always use this handpiece in a well
ventilated area to avoid the inhalation of fumes created by solder flux
gases.

HANDPIECE SETUP
HANDPIECE ALIGNMENT
Check the handpiece heaters for proper alignment with each other. Proper handpiece
(and tip) alignment is essential for effective operation.
1. Remove any installed tip.
2. With the handpiece at room
temperature, adjust the
heaters parallel to each other
(refer to illustration) using the
Tip Gap Adjustment Thumb
Screw. If the heater ends are
even with each other, go to
"Power Source Connection".
If the ends are not even, go to
step 3.
3. Loosen the handpiece Hinge
Screw 1/2 turn.
4. Holding the handpiece in a
vertical position (heaters
facing down), place the ends
of the two heaters against a
hard flat surface to insure
proper alignment. The heater
ends should be even with each
other and flush against the flat
surface. Gently push the rear
of the handpiece handles to
force both heaters against the
flat surface.
5. Tighten Hinge Screw to secure
in position.
6
POWER SOURCE CONNECTION
NOTE
If using your DTP-80 ThermoPik for the first time or if you have just
replaced the heater, you must follow the “DTP-80 Heater Burn-in”
procedure (red tag on handpiece) to increase the life expectancy of the
heaterandtominimizeanysmokeandfumesgeneratedbytheheateron
its initial power-up.
Connect the handpiece power cable connector to one of the front panel power
receptacles on your PACE power source. PACE recommends that air handpieces
utilize the power receptacles closest to the AUTO SNAP-VAC (or SNAP-VAC)Port
to minimize cord tangles.
NOTE
To insure optimum performance, use only one Dual ThermoPik
handpiece and any other SensaTemp handpiece (except TT-65
ThermoTweez) on 2 channel power sources. On MBT 250A/220A or
PRC 2000 systems, use of 2 Dual ThermoPiks or a Dual ThermoPik
and a ThermoTweez handpiece may be powered by the same power
source with the third channel left vacant (no handpiece connected).
7
TIP TEMPERATURE
The DTP-80 rapidly transfers heat by contact and typically allows component
removal at relatively low temperatures in the 288 - 343°C (550 - 650°F) range. Tip
temperature and removal times will vary with each application. PACE recommends
the use of a 316°C (600°F) tip temperature setting for initial use in any particular
application. With practice, many components can be removed at lower
temperatures. Use the lowest possible tip temperature that will provide rapid, yet
controlled solder reflow. Lower temperatures extend tip and heater life, allow solder
to remain on the lower surfaces of the tip (to improve thermal linkage between the
tip and the component during component removal) and help prevent possible board
damage.
Refer to the Tip & Temperature Selection System booklet for your particular
handpiece/tip combination. For all Dial Display SensaTemp systems, the booklet
will indicate the correct Dial Settings for the True Tip Temperature. On systems
incorporating a Digital Readout, set the desired operating temperature and Tip Offset
Constant for the DTP-80 handpiece/tip combination into the channel powering the
DTP-80.
8
AIR HOSE CONNECTION
Use the following procedure to attach the handpiece air hose to your PACE power
source.
NOTE
Ensure that only one air hose is connected to the AUTO SNAP-VAC (or
SNAP-VAC) or Controllable PRESSURE Port at one time. Attachment
to both ports simultaneously will cause a deterioration of performance.
To set up your DTP-80 for operation, perform the following steps:
1. Connect the 152 cm (60 inch)
length of black silicone air hose
to the Vacuum Pick tube (metal
tube) in the middle of the
handpiece.
2. Attach the male quick connect
hose mount fitting (P/N 1259-
0102) supplied with the
handpiece to the other end of
the black silicone air hose. This
fitting has a special Vacuum
Release Opening to provide a
quick component release during
component removal operations;
DO NOT use any other male
fitting.
3. Secure the air hose to the
handpiece power cable with
hose clamps (P/N 1321-0274).
9
4. Prepare a VisiFilter by
connecting a 2.5cm (1 inch)
length of clear pvc air hose to
each side of the VisiFilter.
Connect a female quick
connect hose mount fitting
(P/N 1259-0086) to one of
the air hose ends . Connect
the 152cm (60 inch) length of
black silicone air hose to this
end of the VisiFilter and the
DTP-80 handpiece.
5. To the other air hose end (on VisiFilter), attach a male quick connect hose
mount fitting (P/N 1259-0087).
6. Attach the male quick connect hose mount fitting (on VisiFilter air hose)
to the power source AUTO SNAP-VAC (or SNAP-VAC) Port.
NOTE
Always use your Dual ThermoPik handpiece with a clean VisiFilter
element. Otherwisea deteriorationin performanceor damage to the unit
may occur.

TIP SELECTION
Selection of the proper tip is essential for effective operation. Attempts to use an
improperly sized tip will result in unsatisfactory handpiece operation and may result
in lifted lands or board damage.
Table I details a partial listing of available tips. Contact your local authorized PACE
dealer for the latest Tips & Accessories Catalogue which details all available tips
and accessories.
TIP INSTALLATION
The following instructions are for tip installation only. If a tip is currently installed
in the handpiece, remove the installed tip (heater hot) and clean both heater bores
using the supplied 3/16" diameter wire brush prior to the installation of a new tip.
1. Select the proper tip for your application. Refer to Table 1.
2. Insert the tip shafts fully into the heater bores.
3. Using the supplied Tip & Vacuum Cup Tool
(P/N 1100-0239) or small screwdriver,
tighten the heater assembly set screws for a
snug fit. Do not over tighten.
NOTE
The DTP-80 tips must be kept properly tinned and free of oxidation to
maximize tip life. Use the tip cleaning tools to remove all traces of solder
from the heated tip. Carefully inspect for any oxidation buildup. If
oxidation is present, re-tin and clean the tip until no oxidation spots
remain. Immediatelytinthetipsurfacesandkeepthemtinnedatalltimes.
