Assembly in Action: Low-Voc Cleaning Fluid for Conformal Coating Equipment
The facility needed a low-VOC replacement solvent to clean the automatic dispensing system, which applies a silicone conformal coating to printed circuit boards (PCBs). The coating material is applied to PCBs to protect electronic components that control various functions in automobiles.
The company selected Dow Corning Corp.'s (Midland, MI) OS-120 fluid to remove the residual silicone from the dispensing equipment after production runs.
