Description
You are bidding on one Pace MBT-250 soldering station, as listed in the Pace catalogue. It is complete with grounded NEMA power cable and it works.
You can use this item for providing power, suction and heated air for up to three Pace handsets, such as the Thermojet hot air blower, SODA-X-TRACTOR solder sucker, and the PS-series soldering irons. You can set the operating temperature of each of the three appliances independently, as sensed by the thermal sensor in each Pace handpiece. For instance, when I strip a printed wiring board, I set the SODA-X-TRACTOR at 375°C (707°F) and the other two devices at 100°C (212°F). When I come to replace components, the soldering iron warms up from 100°C to the temperature I need for the particular soldering tip very quickly; this saves power and reduces oxidation of the other devices.
Possible extras
This device is designed to run off 115 Vac mains. I can supply, as extra, an isolated step-down transformer to provide 115 Vac from 240 Vac mains; I have several, rated from 200 VA to 500 VA, weighing from 5 to 8 kg.
In separate listings, I have Pace soldering iron stands and a PS-90 soldering iron.
Why am I selling this?
When I taught high-reliability soldering at the Sydney TAFE college, all the equipment for training students was made by Pace. So, I purchased one to use at home to become thoroughly familiar with it for teaching purposes. However, this soldering station requires 200 W at 115 Vac, needing a sizeable step-down transformer; I prefer an isolation transformer and use the grounding terminal on the MBT 250's front panel to connect to my circuit-board holder. I have now purchased a Pace soldering station that is isolated and runs directly off the Australian standard power mains, of 230 Vac.
