Electronic Circuit Board Cleaner Spray

Yes, provided the cleaner is non-conductive, non-flammable, and plastic-safe. Products like ZL98 and Z99 are specifically formulated for use on circuit boards. They feature high dielectric strength (up to 36,000 volts), will not damage coatings or plastics, and evaporate quickly without leaving residue or causing short circuits.

Hold the aerosol can upright and spray directly onto the circuit board from a short distance, targeting areas with dust, grease, or oxidation buildup. The self-evaporating formula will flush away contaminants and dry completely without wiping. For heavily soiled boards, a second application may be needed. Always ensure adequate ventilation during use.

The ZL98 High Purity Plastic Safe Contact Cleaner offers a dielectric strength of 18,000 volts, while the Z99 Safety Solvent Degreaser is rated at 36,000 volts per ASTM D-877 testing. Both ratings confirm the products are safe for use on energized electrical equipment without risk of electrical conductivity.

Yes. ZL98 is explicitly tested and confirmed compatible with a wide range of materials including ABS, PVC, PTFE, Nylon, Polystyrene, Polyethylene, Neoprene, Silicone, and Butyl rubber. Z99 is similarly formulated to be safe on common plastics and coatings found in electrical and electronic assemblies.

No. Both ZL98 and Z99 are self-evaporating formulas that leave absolutely no residue after application. This is critical for sensitive electronics where residue could impair conductivity, attract dust, or damage coatings. The rapid evaporation also means components are ready for operation shortly after cleaning without any drying time.

Yes. The Z99 Safety Solvent Degreaser is available in both aerosol (12 x 20 oz cans per case) and bulk formats including 5-gallon pails and 55-gallon drums, with volume pricing available. The ZL98 is available as 12 x 16 oz aerosol cans per case. Contact Zircon at 800-547-4328 for bulk pricing.
