JBC BIS-5C Soldering Station, B.Iron 500, Battery-Powered, w/8.6” Portable Display

B.IRON 500 Station (BIS‑5C)

Battery‑Powered Soldering Station for High‑Demand Electronics Work

The B.IRON 500 Station (BIS‑5C) is a portable, battery‑powered soldering station designed for intensive electronics production, PCB assembly, and advanced rework. It delivers the thermal performance needed for larger components and ground planes while maintaining the flexibility of a cordless setup.

Built for engineers and technicians in production and R&D environments, the BIS‑5C supports long operating cycles with stable, repeatable results.

High Power for Continuous Soldering

At the center of the B.IRON 500 Station (BIS‑5C) is the B.500 tool, optimized for sustained soldering performance. Its ergonomic design and short tip‑to‑grip distance improve control during extended sessions, especially when working on high‑mass components or multilayer boards.

A single charge supports up to 500 medium‑sized SMD solder joints, making it suitable for continuous workflows in electronics manufacturing and assembly.

JBC Intelligent Heat Management enables the tool to reach 350 °C in under 3 seconds, with rapid thermal recovery to maintain consistent temperatures across demanding tasks.

Flexible Setup for Production and Rework

The station is compatible with the JBC C210 cartridge range, providing access to a wide variety of tip geometries for precision soldering and higher‑power applications. These long‑life cartridges ensure efficient heat transfer and durability in production environments.

The BCB Charging Base integrates essential workstation features into a compact footprint:

• Dock‑and‑charge operation
• Quick cartridge exchanger for fast tip changes
• Storage for up to four cartridges
• Brass wool cleaner with antisplash membrane

The included B1596 Safety Cap activates power‑safe mode when placed on the tool, stopping heating instantly for safe handling and transport.

Connected Control and Portability

The BIS‑5C configuration includes the PDS Portable Display (8.6"), enabling Bluetooth connectivity through the B.IRON app. This allows real‑time monitoring, configuration, and control without requiring a fixed workstation.

This combination of mobility, power, and system visibility supports modern electronics workflows, from prototyping to production.
