PS-800 Soldering System
The Second Technology Shift In Hand Soldering
Driven by today's
technologies and
economic demands,
Metcal's new PS-800
Soldering System
represents the most
significant development in
hand soldering since
Metcal first introduced
SmartHeat® technology
(fixed
temperature/variable
power control)in the
1980's. The PS-800
Soldering System
revolutionizes hand
soldering by combining
the power and superior
process control
advantages of SmartHeat®, with the system quality and innovative design of Metcal irons.
Designed to be the perfect, compact soldering system for repetitive manual assembly and touch-up, the
PS-800 Soldering System incorporates an innovative, compact power supply that fits on or under the
bench. In addition, the PS-800 Soldering System requires no calibration.

Minimal Cost Of Ownership
The PS-800 Soldering System employs replaceable heater tips rather than cartridges, making cost of
ownership extremely competitive. The unique two-piece design separates the heater coil from the tip. The
long-life heater coil remains in the handle,while replaceable tips are easily removed and replaced. Most
importantly,the cost of the heater tips is comparable to that of conventional tips.
Metcal has developed 33 soldering tip geometries for the PS-800 Soldering System, each available in a
variety of temperature ranges. Plus, enhancements to SmartHeat® technology have allowed us to increase
the plating thickness of the tips. The result is extended tip life without reducing thermal performance.
Perfect For Lead-Free Hand Soldering
The most important
technical challenge of
lead-free hand soldering is
being able to solder heat
sensitive components at
215-220 °C, without
causing damage. This
requires a soldering
system that can deliver
high levels of accuracy to
a traceable standard.
Metcal's PS-800 Soldering
System is perfect for lead-
free hand soldering. As
SmartHeat® maintains a
constant tip temperature it allows the higher temperature requirements of lead-free alloys to be met without
increasing the tip temperature. Thus, the risk of thermal damage is eliminated.
The PS-800 Soldering System allows operators to produce high quality product quickly, easily and safely. It
is a reliable, hassle-free production tool that can be used to solder lead-free PCBs immediately without
needing to be continually re-calibrated to meet the higher temperature requirements.
