The Aqua Scrub is a purpose-built as a stand-alone system that can be easily retrofitted on PYRAMAX™ reflow ovens already in the field as well as being configured on new PYRAMAX ovens. This self-contained unit mounts on the back side of the oven to minimize the impact on oven operation and factory floor space.
