The electric soldering iron is an essential tool for electronic production and electrical appliance repair, mainly used for soldering components and wires. According to its mechanical structure, it can be divided into internal-heated and external-heated soldering irons. Based on its functions, it can be classified as a non-solder sucking soldering iron and a solder sucking soldering iron. Depending on its usage, it is further categorized into high-power and low-power soldering irons. To ensure safety when using an electric soldering iron, it is important to be aware of the following electrical safety knowledge:

I. Selection of Electric Soldering Irons

Choosing a soldering iron with suitable power is the first step for safe usage. Low-power soldering irons are commonly used for soldering small electronic components, while high-power soldering irons are more suitable for soldering larger components or wires. It is crucial to select an appropriate soldering iron based on the actual job requirements.

II. Environment for Using Electric Soldering Irons

1.The environment for using a soldering iron should be kept dry, and it should be avoided to use it near damp or flammable items to prevent electric shocks or fires.

2.Ensure that there are no other flammable items on the workbench, and maintain a safe distance between the soldering iron tip and the workbench.

III. Safety Precautions During Operation

1.Pre-use inspection: Before using the soldering iron each time, check if the power cord is intact and free from damage or aging. Ensure that the soldering iron tip is not loose to prevent accidents during soldering.

2.Grounding protection: Ensure that the soldering iron has a reliable ground connection to prevent electrostatic damage to electronic components or potential safety hazards.

3.Correct grip: Hold the soldering iron using the attached handle or the insulated part of the tool to avoid direct contact with metal parts and prevent burns.

4.Protection during soldering: Wear protective glasses during soldering to prevent eye injury from flying solder. Avoid inhaling the fumes generated during soldering, as they may be harmful.

5.Post-soldering handling: Disconnect the power after soldering and allow the soldering iron to cool naturally. Avoid rapid cooling with water or other liquids to prevent the soldering iron tip from cracking.

6.Keep children and pets away: Ensure that children and pets are kept away from the work area to prevent accidents.

IV. Maintenance and Care

1.Regular cleaning: The soldering iron tip is prone to oxidation during use. Use a specialized cleaning agent or fine sandpaper for regular cleaning to maintain good thermal conductivity.

2.Storage location: When not in use, store the soldering iron in a dry and ventilated place, avoiding damp and high-temperature environments.

V. Emergency Handling

1.Electric shock: In case of an electric shock, immediately cut off the power supply and separate the victim from the power source using insulating materials (such as wooden sticks or plastic). If the victim experiences unconsciousness, respiratory arrest, etc., perform cardiopulmonary resuscitation immediately and call for emergency assistance.

2.Burns: If burned by the soldering iron tip, immediately rinse the wound with cold water and apply a burn ointment. Seek medical attention promptly if the wound is severe or accompanied by blisters, peeling, or other symptoms.

VI. Summary

By understanding and following the above safety knowledge on using electric soldering irons, we can perform electronic production and electrical appliance repair work more safely and effectively.
