The Xytronic LF-1700, 100W Digital Soldering Station has a digital temperature readout and a soldering temperature range of 150 to 480°C. Its electronic circuitry maintains the soldering temperature by means of a temperature sensor mounted in the soldering iron. The electronic circuitry employs Zero Voltage switching techniques that prevent the generation of voltage and current spikes that could damage sensitive components.
A range of spare parts and alternative long-lasting, iron clad, nickel/chrome soldering tips are available to keep the LF-1700 functioning perfectly.
ESD safe
Warm-up time approx. 20 seconds
Fast temperature recovery
Auto sleep function saves power and extends tip life
Slender, ergonomic soldering iron with rubberised grip
Non-burning silicone rubber cable between station and iron
A. Hi Paul, thank you for your question. Yes it is fine for both leaded and unleaded solder. This version just has extra coating on the tip to deal with unleaded solder fluxes.
