Here's a replacement heating element for our hot-air rework stations. It's compatible with Sunkko stations and our own branded rework station. The element is the same for other manufacturers and the connector can be modified by a skilled user to work with other manufacturers. This element includes a thermocouple element at the tip of the air flow with two wires to be connected to a temperature sensing circuit.
If it requires power, you need to know how much, what all the pins do, and how to hook it up. You may need to reference datasheets, schematics, and know the ins and outs of electronics.
Skill Level: Rookie - You may be required to know a bit more about the component, such as orientation, or how to hook it up, in addition to power requirements. You will need to understand polarized components.

Just bought one of these with hopes of fixing my hot-air rework station. The one I received did not match the picture -- it had a 4-pin header instead of the necessary 2-pin header pictured above
What type of thermocouple is built into the element?
So this isn't compatible with the Heaterizer, right?
I just opened up a dead Heaterizer on my desk-it looks like you should be able to use this as a replacement without too much hacking required!
Nice!
