The new kolb AQUBE
®
series offer next-generation cleaning systems - even more efficient, even more compact, easy to
handle and maintain, pre-equipped for extended water management and cyber-physically ready for the smart factory.
AQUBE
®
XH9 is a completely German engineered and manufactured fully automatic XXL high volume PCB ultra-fine cleaning
system with by far the largest process chamber in a PCB cleaning batch system worldwide and thus with higher capacity per
time than even any common inline system: 860 / 19m² (204.5 ft
2
) eurocards in one cleaning cycle, corresponding to a relative
cleaning time of 6.5 seconds per card. With up to 80° (176 °F) cleaning and 120° (248 °F) drying temperature also ideally suited
for parts cleaning of medical equipment and use in the production of medical electronics.
The three-tank, three-circuit configuration ensures very short cycle times, low running costs and makes this system the
perfect economic choice for the precision mass cleaning of assembled PCBs.
The cleaning system can be operated with all common electronics cleaning supplies (detergents / chemistry, etc.)
which are approved by the manufacturer.
Three tank system with three separate circuits
Intelligent network connectivity for implementation in industry 4.0 smart factories
Fully automatic 4step (optional up to 5step) process: cleaning, (MediumWipe

Key applications
Certifications:
This system in its basic version was certified for its energy and
water saving processing, for easy operability and for the standard
integration of comprehensive safety features.

Cleaning (key process 1): From the cleaning tank (A) the cleaner liquid is sucked by a magnetically coupled pump unit and
routed with a controllable volume flow through a separate circuit into the PTFE mounted ASYNCHRO
®
stainless steel spray
rotors with patented PUSHFORCE
®
nozzles. Their geometry ensures a comprehensive and thorough cleaning, even in
inaccessible and critical aereas. After the washing procedure, the valve switchover of the process chamber undocks the
cleaning circuit until the next process run.
MediumWipe
®
(optional intermediate process): The remaining cleaner is blown off from the clean products and blown out of
the cleaner circuit and recirculated into the cleaning tank before the valve switchover closes.
Rinsing with tap water (key process 2): From the first rinsing tank (tank B), the water is pumped through the separate
second circuit into the spray rotors. Tap water has (compared to DI / DM water) the advantage of lower surface tension and
thus flushes also critical points as low standoffs more efficient.
MediumWipe
®
(optional intermediate process): The remaining water is blown off from the products and blown out of the
cleaner circuit and recirculated into the rinsing tank.
Clear rinsing with DI / DM water (key process 3): The DI / DM water is produced in an integrated MB-cartridge from tap
water and kept in the second rinsing tank (tank C). Through the third cycle it flushes conducting ions of the preliminary
processes. This process is repeated automatically until the remaining amount of ions falls below the programmed value.
MediumWipe
®
(optional intermediate process): Blowing off and recirculating the remaining DI / DM water into the rinsing tank.
Drying (key process 4): The clean products are dried with the patented VMH
®
(Venturi Mixed Hot air) technology. A high
volume flow of normal circulating air is blown into a venturi nozzle. The resulting differential pressure there (passively) sucks
on a small amount of very high temperature air. The resulting air mixture provides for uniformly high drying temperature
- adjustable between 45 and 120 °C (113 and 248 °F) - all over the process chamber. Energy is only needed for a fan and the
heating of a very small amount of air; the rest is executed by pressure differences and air duct geometry.
Maintenance: The system has a VARIccess
®
maintenance access system with recessed, variable doors and removable
panels. In the maintenance area among others are the pump-out set, the optional re-dosage unit with space for a 25 liter
detergent and a 5 l additive container as well as the MB cartridge for DI / DM water processing. Tank levels as well as
pressure values and maintenance cycles are monitored by the PLC and displayed on the touch screen.
