Safe and Innovative Lead-Free Hand Soldering
ERSA has succeeded in design-
ing one of the smallest, lightest
and most powerful soldering
irons in the world - the ERSA
i-Tool. The true value added for
our customers lies not only in
the fact that it will increase both
the hand soldering quality and
productivity, but also that it can
realize a tremendous reduction in
operational costs associated with
manual soldering.
ERSA’s new technology allows
for a similar performance as com-
pared to the soldering irons with
expensive heating cartridge tips,
but offers a standard low-cost,
long-life exchangeable tip!
The ERSA i-CON advanced digi-
tal power supply offers ERSA’s
new “One Touch” easy-to-use
operation with the new i-Op
Control, as well numerous value
added functions.

Guaranteeing quality in a
lead-free environment puts the
greatest demands on hand
soldering applications.
Today’s hand soldering opera-
tors expect a great deal from
a state-of-the-art hand solder
tool: a small and lightweight,
ergonomically designed hand
tool that does not get too hot
during use, maximum power and
effi ciency for rapid heat-up and
recovery during soldering, fast
and easy tip change, as well as
easy-to-use station operation
and programming.
Today’s QA and purchasing
managers, however, have much
different concerns. In order to
guarantee quality, soldering
stations must be designed for
superior performance. The
higher working temperatures
and smaller process windows
for lead-free hand soldering
demand precise temperature
control of the soldering tip
and rapid heat recovery of
the heating element in order
to prevent cold solder joints.
Low-cost, long-life soldering
tips are a must from a running
cost effi ciency standpoint and
are the major concern for the
purchasing department.
To meet this challenge, ERSA
is proud to introduce its newest
technology for a state-of-the-art
soldering station that has been
specifi cally designed to meet
the challenges the industry has
been facing since lead-free
implementation.

i-Tool soldering iron: ultra light (only 30 grams), ultra short (only 155 mm), and ultra short tip-to-grip (only 45 mm).
i-Tool soldering iron with 150 W
micro heating element:
New heating technology for ultra fastest
heat-up and recovery of the i-Tool soldering
iron: room temperature of 350 °C in approx.
9 sec., from standby to 350 °C in approx. 3
sec. Tip and heating element designed as
two separate pieces.
Lead-free i-Tips:
The low-cost i-Tips are specially plated
with the new ERSADUR LF galvanic
process lasting 2 to 3 times longer than
standard tips!
“One Touch” easy-to-use
operation:
User-friendly station software with large,
multifunctional display has online help text
and easy menu navigator with i-Op control.
i-Tool calibration:
Unlike other systems, the microprocessor
which stores the temperature calibration of
the iron is actually located in the PCB which
is installed in the handle.
This now allows for each individual i-Tool
to be calibrated independent of the solder-
ing station.
Automatic stand-by motion sensor:
Recognizes when the iron is being used and
automatically goes into a stand-by tempera-
ture when the iron is put into its holder.
The i-Tool has a highly advanced PCB integrated into the handle for a level of intelligence never before seen in a soldering iron.
The i-Tool recovers so fast that all solder joints can be made with nearly the same temperature. The sensor measures the actual tip
temperature very close to the tip extremity. The process window alarm assists the operators in guaranteeing repeatable quality.
Power level settings:
Allows for the use of three different power
settings which control the heating element
overshoot depending on the heat required.
Thus, the operator can choose the right
setting for the right job - either more power or
more control! Power level “Low” guarantees no
overshoot for maximum component safety!
Process window alarm:
Informs operator with a visual and acoustic
signal if the soldering iron tip gets too hot
or too cold.
i-Set Tool (Order no. 0103IST):
This optional item allows for automatic down-
loading of station settings and lockout by act-
ing as a type of USB stick. Simply upload the
station setting from an i-CON into the i-Set
Tool. The i-Set Tool is then plugged into any
other i-CON station and all set parameters
are automatically downloaded in less than 5
seconds and the station is locked out!
