The Weller WHP1000 850W, 120V, 150 to 570°F Desktop Digital Preheating Plate is a high power preheater that is suitable for contact preheating. Use it under a board holder, or simply place your work directly on the working surface. The WHP1000 is well suited for use with flat silicon cells as well as ceramic and glass printed circuit boards.

The WHP1000 is designed for rework of single-sided PC board assemblies and is equipped with a heating plate that ramps up the assembly from below using direct contact. The WHP1000 provides precise temperature control from 150°F - 570°F (50°C - 300°C) and digitally displays read and set temperatures. An RS-232 interface allows for connection to Weller hot air stations WHA3000 or WX series soldering stations.
