Temperature measurement device offers high precision

The WCU unit is designed for users that need to make measurements fast and easily while maintaining the highest level of accuracy. It comes with a large, non-backlight display.

• Max Hold function: The WCU display will show/hold the maximum temperature measured.
• High-Mobility: The compact designed, battery-powered Weller High Precision Temperature Measurement Device can easily be shared between different workstations
• Temperature Measurement Count Function: Number of tip temperature measurement will be automatically counted. This function can be useful for control of changing sensor.
• ESD Safe: The Weller WCU High Precision Temperature Measurement Device is ESD safe
• WCU Replacement Sensor: 10 pcs. T0058771712
• High-Precision Temperature Measurement Device: Quick and accurate temperature measurements.
• Simultaneous Use of Thermocross and Thermocouple: Keep track of soldering tip and soldering bath temperatures simultaneously. (Weller Thermocouple Type K Ø 0, 1 mm T0058755782) (Weller Thermocouple Type K Ø 0, 5 mm T0053119099)
• Fast and Easy Measurement: Effortlessly auto-calibrate in less than 10 seconds, ensuring the operator can focus on the important soldering task with a precise temperature for best productivity. The Auto-Calibration function can be used with: WX 1, WX 2, WXD 2, WXA 2, WXR 3, WXsmart NOTE: For the Auto-Calibration function a RS 232 cable ( order number: T0058764710) needs to be purchased separately
• Intuitive Navigation: Digital display for fast temperature unit change between °C and °F, and other functionalities. Values are easily readable from the large non-backlite display.
• Low Energy Consumption: Auto Turn-off Timer saves battery life shutting down the unit’s power after 10 mins without use

This new device has a double purpose as the temperature can be measured by the built-in thermo cross, or with a standard external type K sensor. Its main function uses the three filaments (one of which is mechanical only) that form the probe: the soldering tip has to touch at their intersection and the real temperature can be measured and shown in the middle of the screen of the WCU. The two contacts that carry out the reading are protected with heat-resistant and antistatic caps to avoid false readings caused by the proximity of the soldering iron’s resistance to the probes. There is a metal plate under them to simplify cleaning, and the probes are easily replaceable (5 in the scope of supply and also available in packs of 10 pcs, T0058771712). As an alternative to the thermo cross, a type K thermocouple can be connected simultaneously to carry out temperature measurements of any type: from a solder bath or a process.It can even verify “system accuracy” regardless of the specific tip used, but based on a sample tip, and this would use the 0.5 mm probe together with the appropriate Weller measurement tip (sold separately, T0053119099).

The temperate read by the external sensor is shown in the top left corner of the display.

Weller WCU can be connected to Weller units from the WX family but can also be used with older or other units, even with other brands, as well as used as an external temperature sensor (not necessarily for tips or nozzles). By connecting it to the Weller WX units (using a special cable sold separately, T0058764710), once the temperature verification process has been completed (about 10 “), any offset will be automatically set in the built-in memory of the WX connected tool.

The WCU is supplied with its calibration certificate and our service center is available for periodic certification.
