User “Dakki” presents his latest construction – a project of a digital soldering station based on AVT-987 (diagrams of controller and power supply below).
The electronics was made on the boards from the EP website, actually nothing was changed.
The soldering iron used is Pensol SL-NI ESD Safe 48W. Transformers - toroid 2x12V / 200W.
The casing was not adapted from a PC power supply but it was made from scratch out of galvanized metal sheeting.
It was attempted to be made as precisely as possible, ideally according to the dimensions for it to occupy as little space as possible, and to be arranged reasonably. At first, it was designed and then copied using an appropriate scale to metal sheeting and then was cut and bent.
Instead of painting it with a spray, it was covered with a black SERILUX foil.
A blue diode was used.
Station features:
- PID regulation ensuring great stability of temperature
- Accuracy of temperature measurement 1*C
- Range of temperature regulation 80-450*C
-SLEEP function reducing oxidization of the tip
-Auto-tuning regulator
-Casing and the tip of the soldering iron grounded (ESD Safe)
-Socket for a potential change/update of firmware at the back of the casing
