The JBC CD-2BQE is a soldering station for general electronic applications, and features the JBC exclusive heating system with intelligent sleep and hibernation modes.

The CD-2BQE has an onscreen menu where you can personalize over 20 parameters to manage the soldering process and also contains a USB connector to update software, create graphs and manage parameters from a PC.

The CD-2BQE includes the T245-A general purpose iron, and is also compatible with the T210 precision handle. The T245-A uses C245 tips. Please note, tips are sold separately.

Features include:

• Sleep and hibernation mode
  • These modes lower soldering tip temperature when the tool rests in the stand in order to avoid oxidation and extending tip life
• Maximum and minimum temperature
  • Limit the temperature range in which the operator is allowed to work
• Temperature levels
  • Instant selection of up to 3 editable temperature settings for solder joints with different heat requirement
• PIN protection
  • Keep station parameters protected against unauthorized access

The Most Efficient Soldering System

The system recovers tip temperature extremely quickly. This increases work efficiency and lowers the soldering temperature.
 

JBC heating system principles The compact element optimizes heat transfer by reducing the thermal barriers. The fully integrated thermal sensor to the heater ensures an extremely quick temperature recovery. The intelligent algorithm used in the heating control system increases performance JBC system can reach 350°C (662°F) in only 2 seconds, while others need between 10 and 90 seconds.
JBC, the most efficient soldering process This innovative technology allows a reduction of the temperature by at least 50°C. Lowering the temperature reduces the risk of damaging components and improves the quality of soldering and desoldering. JBC stations only drop 20°C (68°F) where others drop as much as 70°C (158°F)

The Intelligent Heat Management

Thanks to automatic detection of the tool in the stand, JBC Soldering and Rework Stations are able to make the tools entering in Sleep & Hibernation mode when not being used. 

As a result, tip life lasts up to 5 times longer than with conventional systems.
 

Sleep Mode Sleep mode automatically lowers tip temperature below solder melting point when the tool rests in the stand. It prevents the dissolution of tips iron coating into molten solder. Hibernation Mode After a configurable period of tool inactivity in the stand (10 min factory default), the tool enters in Hibernation mode. It cuts off power supply making the tip to reach room temperature thus preventing oxidation and saving energy.

Longer Tip life Tip life increases exponentially by using a lower tempearture for a shorter time, as shown in the graph. JBC tips last 5 times longer than other brands thanks to the Exclusive Heating System and the Intelligent Heat Management: Sleep & Hibernation functions.

Increased Productivity

Save time by using the quick cartridge extractor, which is available in all stands and compact stations. This system designed by JBC allows the user to change cartridges quickly and safely. Without switching the station off, you can carry out different soldering jobs.
 

Move the cartridge from the handpiece. Place the tool and pull up slightly to release it.	Insert the cartridge to use into the handpiece. Push slightly.	Select the hole depending on the tip shape. Place the cartridge to the suitable hole and push again.
