Hakko FX 805 input voltage
« on: August 04, 2024, 11:26:15 am »
Hi,
I'm looking at purchasing a Hakko FX-805 high power soldering station. Im trying to find out if it has the universal voltage input, or does it have to be ordered with the correct voltage input such as 120v or 240v. Hakko website doesn't give a voltage input range, or models corresponding to voltage input or country. Distributors can't help me either, as they don't keep this model in stock to have a look at it for me. I would like it to be universal for the different locations that this unit will be used  ???
Thanks
James

Call or email Hakko and they will probably get back quickly.

Nothing in the manual, though this page says 120VAC: https://hakkousa.com/amfile/file/download/file/3824/product/12839/
And on the back of the unit says 120V: https://www.batterfly.com/shop/en/hakko-af5000

Though the weight seems a bit low for 400W, 3.9kg. FM203 is 2.7kg 140W.

Hi,
Thanks for the reply. 400watt at 30volt = 13.3 amp = big heavey transformer. With its specified weight as you say at 3.9kg, I suspect it has a switch mode power supply. This is one of the reasons I was looking at this, thinking that if it has a switchmode power supply, the chances are that it would be universal mains voltage input, which would suit my needs.
I thought I'd post here to find out before trying Hakko, as it is more likely I would get a straight answer from someone that knows or even has one.
I'll try Hakko directly and see how I go.

Thanks
James
