As a side note, "Explosion Resistant" when applied to products like this doesn't just mean that it will survive an explosion. Often this means that the product is engineered in a way to limit sources of ignition from the product itself but not from outside sources. This is important because even if you purchase an explosion resistant cleaner, if you choose to use it in a poor environment, say one prone to static electricity, you can still ignite the fumes and blow yourself up.

@plc_memes 3 жыл бұрын

This right here. It's an electrical designation for areas that will or are likely to be installed in an environment where sources of ignition could cause fires or explosions (classified areas, in this case Class I group D). An explosion proof cleaner on its own would be useless without the rest of the electrical system being compliant. This would mean explosion proof outlets, light switches, lighting, and the rest of the equipment in the area being listed for installation in the prescribed environment.

@rockybass3129 3 жыл бұрын

For sure, explosion proof cabinets in chemical plants, while 1" thick and held sealed with machined surfaces and tons bolts they aren't about surviving explosion, they are about keeping explosive atmospheres out of arcing devices. Most are nitrogen or clean air purged and shut down if this purge pressure isn't detected.

I worked in a metallographic lab for 6 years doing testing and process development and improvements for preparation and methods for an aerospace manufacturer. The simple decision to use diluted dishsoap, prior to and after etching with a distilled water wash improved the clarity in the microscope 100X fold from the regular IPA/Methanol wash everyone was accustomed to. Not only did this affect our ability to assess the mounts, the "Surface defects" and HAZ layers from EDM and Laser processing suddenly dropped by approximately 2-5x depending on the process. Previously, what the guys were assessing was the layer of contaminants where the solvents were the last to dry, near the edges of the samples where the liquid pooled. The solvents were not washing, more moving around and concentrating garbage leading to false positives for 20+ years that they were running these processes. I've got 6 years of 500x-1500x magnification assessments that back up how horrible IPA, Methanol and Ethanol are for bulk cleaning. In short, I am huge advocate for diluted dish soap, or any surfactant over the use of alcohol for cleaning. It also has the added benefit of not attacking substrates, plastics, paints, etc.

@f.s.1250 3 жыл бұрын

Ha, nobody at my previous job at a lab was able to read up on how to clean stuff either. We had problems with contamination on samples, and all the equipment was only cleaned by washing it with some solvents. I decided to order some actual high Ph (14Ph) cleaning agent from a chemical supplier, wash the glassware properly an rinse it thoroughly with deionized and very/ultra pure water. You can also get Ph neutral cleaning agents for stuff that doesn't like strong bases. The difference between dish soap and professional stuff is significant. I tried dish soap, but I was only able with Labwash Premium to get the glassware so clean that after emptying it out the remaining water would not form droplets. Just one even sheet of water adhering on to the glass. That glassware and other equipment was c l e a n. Also, when cleaning flat samples: Remove the remaining thick film of water with pure nitrogen at a decent pressure. Cleaning that properly is step one to 20nm EBL (that was fun and annoying most of the time)

After leaving flying for the Navy, I worked at a 3 letter company at N2S2. Off one of the engineering labs was a wicked ultrasonic cleaner that used heated liquid Freon ( not all Freon is gaseous) in an ultrasonic environment. About 10” above fluid level was a set of refrigerant coils that would condense vapor and it rained into a tough that lined the perimeter of the tank and was recirculated back into the tank. The liquid was constantly heated and filtered. All circuit boards were run through this device to remove any flux or oils. You have to for any items going into oxygen rich environments. I’ve never seen anything that worked as well. Did an amazing job on carburetors too. It was a commercial product and I was told it was used heavily on equipment that used liquid toners. I’ve never seen one since but have always hoped to see one for consumer level work.

In addition I always keep a small spray can style extinguisher within reach on my bench for fire that doesn't warrant discharging a real fire extinguisher.

I was in the Navy in the 80's and 90's and had access to feed water for boilers, I used that and a soft bristle tooth brush to clean any boards that became contaminated with varying substances including those that had salt water leak onto them. ( I was told years ago in training the best insulator is pure water, and the worst insulator is water due to all the contaminants in it) . After cleaning with the feed water I would pour alcohol onto the board to displace the water and then let it dry for 3 to 5 days. Using this method I think there was only 1 board that I was not able to repair and it was due to the fact that the traces had started burning off before the issue was discovered and it had penetrated a multi-layer board, most of the boards I dealt with back then were single or dual sided and Multi-layer boards were still new and very expensive. The time to NOT use water is when the board has windings such as coils or transformers attached to it, once you get water into windings even using alcohol will not really remove the water even when letting it dry for months (Learned this the hard way), using an oven would probably work though but I never tried that back then.

I've had instances where a part needed to be cleaned with alcohol, and in those cases I usually fill the ultrasonic cleaner with water, then use a small container of alcohol with the part in it. This then sits in the ultrasonic cleaner. For something like a GPU, that could be a relatively small and shallow tray. Obviously it is a good idea to sit and monitor it, and you definitely don't want to heat it too much (for one thing most of the alcohol will evaporate).

What most people don’t understand about alcohol is that it’s major function is to leach water out of anything it comes in contact with. The best example is Dry gas additive for cars.

Replace the ultrasonic cleaner with a sponge, replace the EC fluid with soap, and you're back to washing dishes. But you don't rinse dishes in the now-dirty water/soap mixture. You get the cleanest dishes if you rinse with fresh water. The alcohol step is just like rinsing your newly cleaned dishes. Then you move on to drying them.

Louis, that old rant video was a classic, and it's what prompted me to order one of the Crest cleaners from you way back when. No need to apologize as far as I am concerned. I got a good laugh out of your comment about skull fornicating motherboards in a cleaner.

Well since you don't need to heat the alcohol once you've done the first stage of Ultrasonic cleaning(UC)-- leaving the heater off will reduce the risk. Another idea if you have a fume hood handy to further reduce the risk is place the UC inside next to a pot of dry ice. Turn on the UC, pour alcohol into the container of dry ice and lower the glass door. (You can't have an explosion if the oxygen needed for ignition is displaced.) When finished kill power to the UC remotely, allow it to cool down, then engage the fume hood's ventilation system.

@brentwright2297 3 жыл бұрын

we use a crest and EC have for 15 years the crest is better if you get a sweep frequency model so you don't damage cavity parts like crystals etc. we don't us alcohol to rinse with because it is extremely flammable , we do use a industrial oven set to about 180F that has forced cross flow air on the shelves, or just set them out in the sun, we use water from a RO filter to rinse the boards out of the ultrasonic, but any deionized source works well. So the swept frequency Crest units have worked well for us. for small things that you want to degrease put them in a small container in whatever solvent you want and suspend it in the water bath, ultrasonics are designed for the density of water not solvents.

I've used the same cleaner that the dude in you're video used for ~8 years. no issues there. It comes with a lid. If the fumes catch alight, you'll quickly run out of oxygen to support the fire. The tank is sealed, apart from the drain that leads to a tap. There is nowhere for the solvent to leak into the electronics. As far as cleaning with alcohol, it depends what you're trying to clean.

Regarding the detergent bit. When your doing XOC overclocking and your cleaning the board its to remove the moisture build up. You get water under the BGA which will kill it so you submerge the card in IPA to draw it out.

A long time ago, after I got my electronics degree, I worked in an electronic component testing lab. The only thing we used in our ultrasonic cleaner (as far as I know) was deionized water. (That's not to say we didn't have dangerous chemicals on hand. When you get a DIP package and you need to inspect the actual silicon, apparently the best way to get rid of the plastic casing without damaging the microchip itself is boiling sulfuric acid. They did not pay me nearly enough to mess around with that stuff.)

One more use of IPA in ultrasonic is for removing flux after board repair, half a minute does a lot better job removing it than I could do manually cleaning it for minutes. It just speeds up the solution of flux so much it becomes a lot less pain in the a** especially if you got it in tight spaces, like board-to-board connectors etc...

As one who has used IPA and/or Ethanol for quite some time in an ultrasonic cleaner professionally I can say that the real problem is the fumes generated during cleaning. Even if you do not use heating the ultrasonic energy itself will cause quite the temperature rise in just a few minutes (alcohol has way lower thermal capacity than water). After about 15min of cleaning the alcohol usually has reached 50+°C when starting at room temperature, then I have to change it or the evaporation rate gets out of control. I know it's not the best way to clean things, but if you do it like that ventilation is everything.

It is the fumes that light up, the liquid phase is imflammable. Heat causes faster evaporation, so a fire is selfpropeling when there is fuel.

I will say you can light a cup of alcohol at room temp and it's underwhelming. At higher temperatures it makes more fumes and the more you have the crazier the initial flash will be.

@isettech 3 жыл бұрын

Alcohol is water soluble. Dilution is very effective with lower temperatures in reducing fire. As most dirt and grime are easily removed with water and a surfacant, except some flux, this is all you need for boards that do not have a battery, fans, or beepers on them. Look up the board manufacturing process and you will find DI water is used. A little Dawn, or similar dish detergent works fine. Follow this with a DI rinse to remove the detergent. Keep the time low, use IPA only for the 2nd rinse to dilute and displace the water to prevent corrosion from slow evaporation of the water. On board buzzers, etc, can have a tape seal for the cleaning that is removed after cleaning.

This problem also comes up with cleaning 3D prints. Cleaning resin (SLA) prints can be a mess. It is much better to sonicate then simply dip into alcohol. People in the forums are often 3D printing enthusiasts, who imo approach the problem with lot's of emotions. They dismiss all the warnings and use pure IPA in ultrasonic cleaners. A better solution is general purpose cleaners (in German: Allzweckreiniger). Then remove the detergent with IPA bath. Another way of probably using pure IPA would be in a cold room. 4°C is below the flash point of IPA. However, sonication warms up the liquid! So that may not be the safest solution.

This is what most people use IPA for, to SANITIZE things. Plus if what you say is true, why do people still put boards in toaster ovens to dry them after cleaning? Using IPA is not needed nor particularly useful in drying a board or anything else for that matter. A person would be better off just air drying something after washing rather than using IPA to dry anything.
