HAKKO FX-601 Adjustable Temperature Soldering Iron
FX-601 Adjustable Temperature Soldering Iron
The Hakko FX-601 is an adjustable temperature control soldering iron. It is ideal for soldering applications that require mobility or a long reach. Compact and perfect for people on the go. Put one in your tool box.
Like the FX-888, the FX-601 is excellent for solderingbattery packs, motors, connectors and circuit boards.
Other features include:
• adjustable "electronic" closed-loop temperature control
• dial the temperature you want
• temperature range: 464° — 1004°F
• ceramic heating element
• temperature sensor in heater ensures consistent heat
• efficient heating (requires less energy)
• less energy = less wattage needed
• FAST thermal recovery
• lightweight (only 2.4 oz without cord)
• slender, ergonomic handpiece
• durable strain relief
• 3-wire (grounded) power cord
• extra long 6 ft. power cord
• UL/CSA Approved
Optimal for soldering work where a high amount of heat is required.
Suitable to solder chassis,large connector,transformer.
Superior heat conductivity
T19 series soldering tips feature an redesigned appearance and internal structure that deliver improved heat conductivity. Use these soldering tips to achieve great heat recovery without increasing power consumption.
Test criteria
| Measurement method | A thermocouple is mounted on the tip and the tip temperature is measured when soldering Φ1.6mm×5mm solder to paper phenol copper board once every 3 seconds. |
| Board | Paper phenol copper |
| Tip shape | Shape-5D |
| Solder | Lead-free solder ( Sn / Ag / Cu ), diameter: 1.6mm |
* FX-601 is set at the same temperature of 455 by measuring the actual temperature.
Compact and light weight
FX-601 has excellent heat recovery but is compact, light weight and well-balanced
Comparing with the conventional heavy duty iron,
FX-601 is easy and simple to handle.
LED informs you when the set temperature has been reached.
Turn CAL to have more accurate temperature
Adjust the temperature easily with the control knob
Features a temperature controller built into the grip.
Easily adjust the temperature with a simple turn of the knob.
* Accurate temperature control performed even outside the scale.
| Detach the control knob and lock the temperature setting | ||
|---|---|---|
| Temperature setting can be locked by removing the central screw and detaching the control knob. After detaching the control knob, you can change the temperature setting using the dedicated lock key. * Designed so that the temperature setting can not be easily changed without using the dedicated lock key. |

 |
 |
 |
| How to remove the control knob * To avoid any damage to the head of the small screw on the knob, use a Phillips screwdriver #00 to remove or tighten it. |
Adjustment using the lock key | |
