The PRC 2000 is a Process Control System for Universal Assembly and Repair of Electronic Assemblies. The
system combines the latest technology available for all types of component installation/removal, circuit board
preparation and repair into one self-contained workstation.
The SR-4 “Safety Rating” designation on the back panel is your assurance that the PRC 2000 meets or exceeds
all applicable civilian and military standards (including *MIL-STD-2000A, and *WS-6536), EOS/ESD and
worldwide electrical codes. *NOTE - Systems equipped with a special current limiting option (1 meg ohm tip
to ground resistance) comply with EN 100015-1. PACE refers to these systems as "Soft Ground Systems".
The PRC 2000 system is available using power sources in either the 100 VAC version, the 115 VAC version or
the 230 VAC version. The 230 VAC version system (production as of Sept. 1995) bears the CE Conformity
Marking which assures the user that it conforms to all the requirements of council directive EMC 89/336/EEC.
