How To Use FEHONDA Thermal Grease

 Work Area

• Ensure you are working in a clean, static-free environment to avoid contamination of the thermal grease and electronic components.

Clean the Surface

• Power Off and Disconnect: Ensure the electronic device is turned off and unplugged from any power sources.

• Remove Old Thermal Grease: If there is any old thermal grease on the surface of the component or heat sink, remove it. Apply isopropyl alcohol to a lint-free cloth or wipe and gently clean the surfaces until they are free from residue.

• Allow to Dry: Let the cleaned surfaces dry completely before applying new thermal grease.

Apply FEHONDA Thermal Grease

Tips：

By choosing the right method for your needs, you can maximize the effectiveness of FEHONDA thermal grease and enhance the thermal performance of your electronic devices.

• Inspect: After installation, check if the thermal grease has spread evenly across the surface. If the application was done correctly, the grease should cover the entire surface area without any gaps or air bubbles.

• Monitor Temperatures: Power on your device and monitor temperatures to ensure that the thermal grease is providing effective heat dissipation. If temperatures are higher than expected, it may be necessary to reapply the thermal grease.

1.The X-Pattern Method

Steps:

          Apply: Draw a large “X” with the thermal grease across the component surface.

          Install: Position the heatsink. The “X” pattern will distribute the grease evenly.

          Check: Verify that the grease is evenly spread and there are no excess areas.

2.The Three-Line Method

Steps:

           Apply: Draw three horizontal lines of thermal grease across the surface.

           Install: Attach the heatsink, allowing the lines to spread during compression.

           Check: Make sure the application is uniform and free from air bubbles.

3.The 5-Point Method

Steps:

           Apply: Place five small dots of thermal grease in the center and around the edges of the component.

           Install: Attach the heatsink. The dots will spread evenly during compression.

           Check: Ensure there are no air bubbles or excessive application.

Install the Heat Sink or Cooling Solution

• Alignment: Carefully align the heat sink or cooling solution over the component with the applied thermal grease.

• Apply Pressure: Gently press down on the heat sink to spread the thermal grease evenly. This ensures good thermal contact between the component and the heat sink.

• Secure: Fasten the heat sink or cooling solution according to the manufacturer’s instructions. Be cautious not to over-tighten, as this can damage the component or heat sink.

Tips for Best Results

• Avoid Over-Application: Using too much thermal grease can reduce thermal performance and make cleaning more difficult. A small, even layer is usually sufficient.

• Use High-Quality Thermal Grease: Ensure that you are using genuine FEHONDA thermal grease for optimal performance.
