[Amps] RE: 8877 Test

[Paul Marbourg]

Actually, Formula 409 was specifically recommended to me by a very long-time
employee of ITT-Jennings in their product testing department.  This is what
she uses everyday in Jennings' testing area.  Pure acetone will not solvate
most ionic residues, but IPA or high proof ethanol should work well for
organic and ionic residues.  Also, use of acetone may remove manufacturer's
device labeling. 

 

Cheers, Paul WN7T

Actually, a good solvent, acetone, or even a strong alcohol cleaning
solution is the best....no residue is the goal.
