Features

Priority Channel and Auto Sleep

The soldering station features a built-in sensor that automatically detects which iron is in use and seamlessly switches channels. Unused irons are on standby and maintained at the set temperature, eliminating delays during switching and delivering maximum power in a compact station design. The built-in sensors also enables auto-sleep/auto-shutoff for greater efficiency and tip protection. 

Wide Variety of Handpieces

The soldering station includes the standard FX-9701 soldering iron and the FR-4103 desoldering gun. It is also compatible with additional handpieces from the FX-971/972 series, including models FX-9702 through FX-9708. This provides a total of nine interchangeable tools, supporting a wide range of applications such as micro soldering, N2 soldering, and heavy-duty soldering.

40% Reduction of cycle time

Similar to the FX-971 and FX-972, the all-new FX-973 features a lower cycle time, allowing soldering work to be completed in a shorter time, improving work efficiency. 

Highly Visible Display and LED Indicators

The large display panel clearly presents key information, including the set temperature, tip sensor temperature, and preset settings. Its wide viewing angle and high-brightness screen ensure excellent visibility from all directions. Separate LED indicators are also on the panel for an easy overview - Clogging Indicator and 3 separate lights for each respective handpiece.

The LED clogging indicator visualizes the suction status, making it easy to know when maintenance is required, such as cleaning or filter replacement; The lights above the handpieces quickly shows which handpiece is in use (lighted up) or not in use (flashing).

Infrared Communication 

When paired with a tip thermometer (FG-100B or FG-101B), temperature correction and calibration can be performed automatically via infrared signals.

Software

The provided software allows tracking and recording of hot air temperature settings, calibration, correction, and history - providing review and analysis with ease. 

NEW AND IMPROVED - PATENTED SOLDERING TIP

New patented composite tips feature improved sensor sensitivity and a design that smoothly transfers heat from the heater to the tip result in a stable tip temperature and better soldering. The smooth and excellent grip with perfected weight balance enables easy grip with reduced hand fatigue. 

High Powered FR-4103 Desoldering Gun

With a 140W power and an increased heater output of 3x*, soldering on multi-layered boards are now a piece of cake! The heater and anti-clogging function (ACF) reliably sends solder to the filter pipe, reducing clogging. The valve function starts suction 0.2 seconds after the suction pressure increases, allowing for quick suction and reducing leftover fluid.
