Electronics Cleaning Products For over 25 years, Vantage has manufactured and supplied cleaning products to the electronics industry. Marketed under the AXAREL®, BIOACT®, HYDREX®, and LENIUM® brands, these products have been specially formulated to meet today’s performance, compatibility and environmental requirements.

Vantage electronics cleaning products are used in the following areas:

  • Military and avionics circuit assemblies
  • Wafer level packages and bumped wafers
  • Components – passive and active
  • Ceramic and hybrid circuit assemblies
  • Power and ignition modules
  • Microelectromechanical systems (MEMs)
  • RF and microwave devices
  • Flip chip packages
  • Wire bonded devices
  • Sensors – pressure, temperature, optical
  • Medical devices
  • Probe Cards

Vantage’s inline defluxing products are designed for optimal performance and lowest total cost of ownership. These products are recommended for removing the flux residues generated from today’s lead-free, no-clean and high temperature solder materials. Their outstanding cleaning power, high flux loading capacity, and low environmental impact make them ideal for cleaning assemblies, components, and microcircuits.

Features

BIOACT EC-88

High Performance Inline Defluxer

  • Synergistic formulation combining the benefits of semi-aqueous and traditional aqueous defluxers.
  • Designed for high throughput and exceptionally long bath life.
  • Requires no anti-foaming agents or other additives to maintain performance.
  • Superior residue removal while protecting surface finishes and maximizing surface insulation resistance.

Vantage’s aqueous batch defluxing products are designed for use in spray, immersion and ultrasonic cleaning processes. These concentrated formulations are designed to be diluted with water prior to use. They effectively remove flux residues generated from today’s lead-free, no-clean and high temperature solder materials.
