a. The SMR features a Pulse Heat power output which provides controlled temperature ramp-up
to reflow temperatures, reducing thermal shock risk and unwanted heating of adjacent solder
joints. The system can be used for the removal and installation of small SMD’s, thermal wire
stripping, resistance soldering of wires to connector cups, lap repairs for conductors and
traces and removal of conformal coatings.
b. 4 SMR Pulse Heat Compatible Handpieces.

7. Operation:
a. Review 5050-0044 TS-15 operation instructions. Set up the TS-15 for required strip depth
and wire thickness.
b. When the wire strip depth and the correct wire strip tip are set up, turn AC power switch
on.
c. Note: Some insulation will require a higher or lower power level than other insulation.
Insulation types vary greatly in the melt temperatures, so care must be exercised when
defining the power level required.
d. Do not contact the tips or their peripheral metal parts during operation, serious burns
could result.
e.
f. Insert the female end of the power cord into the AC Power Receptacle on the on the rear
panel of the power source
g. Plug the prong end (Male end) of the power cord into an appropriate 3 wire grounded AC
supply receptacle.
h. Place a representative piece of scrap wire in the appropriate gage slot of the tips. Grasp
the wire firmly with the TS-15, press and hold the foot-pedal. Insulation melt (not burn)
should occur within about one second. If it does not, increase the power level by one and
repeat. Continue increasing until melt is observed within about one second. If insulation
melt occurs faster than about one second, or if insulation burn is observed, reduce the
power level by one and repeat. Continue decreasing until proper melt, and no burning, is
observed within about one second. Upon achieving proper insulation melt, turn the wire,
or the TS-15 handpiece a ¼ turn and gently pull the insulation off the end of the wire
allowing the detached portion of insulation to turn with the natural lay of the wire strands
i. Set the power level to 5 on the display with the up/down arrows on the front of the SMR.
j. Using a scrap piece of the wire that will be used, place the appropriate size slotted
portion of the tip around the wire. Squeeze and hold the TS-15, press the foot switch and
hold for approximately one second. Turn the TS-15 ¼ turn on the wire, and pull the
insulation off of the wire. If the insulation has not melted, increase the power level to 6.
Continue to increase the power level until the insulation melts and the wire is stripped.
8. Programming
The menu driven LED Display of the SMR allows you to easily customize your system.
In Set-Up Mode, you can:
a. Enter, move or change a Password.
