Thermaltronics TMT-2000S-KM K Series Soldering System, 100–240V
Thermaltronics TMT-2000S-KM K Series Soldering System, 100–240V
Listed lead time: 3–4 weeks. Contact MTE Solutions to confirm current availability before ordering.
The Thermaltronics TMT-2000S-KM is the K Series configuration of the compact TMT-2000S soldering platform. Its Curie Heat Technology operates at 470kHz and automatically adjusts power output in response to the thermal demands of the solder joint. With up to 50W RF output and 100–240VAC input, it offers a compact bench solution for electronics assembly, prototyping and repair.
Configuration note: Thermaltronics explicitly lists TMT-2000S-KM for K Series tips. Its shared packing list shows SHP-K with a footnote that the handpiece varies by system configuration; it does not identify the KM-specific handpiece part number in that list. Confirm the supplied handpiece code and tip contents before purchase.

Manufacturer Packing List
| Reference | Item |
|---|---|
| TMT-2000PS | Power supply |
| SHH-4 | Soldering handpiece holder |
| Configuration-dependent | K Series soldering handpiece; shared list names SHP-K and states the handpiece varies by configuration. Confirm the KM-specific supplied code. |
| RMP-1 | Tip removal pad |
| CC-1 | Connection cable |
| BC-1 | Brass curls |
| SPG-1 | Sulphide-free sponge |
The shared packing list does not specify an included tip-cartridge part number. Confirm tip inclusion and select the required K Series geometry and temperature grade before ordering.
Choosing the Correct TMT-2000S Configuration
| System | Vendor-listed tip family | Buying consideration |
|---|---|---|
| TMT-2000S-K / TMT-2000S-KM | K Series | Choose the exact handpiece configuration required for your bench. |
| TMT-2000S-P / TMT-2000S-PM | P Series | Choose a P Series configuration when that tip family is required. |
| TMT-2000S-SM | S Series | Choose the S Series configuration for that cartridge family. |
The platform supports multiple tip families through the appropriate configurations. This does not mean K, P and S cartridges all fit the handpiece supplied with this KM system. Verify handpiece and cartridge compatibility rather than relying on the power-supply model alone.
Setup and Maintenance
Match the cartridge geometry and temperature grade to the solder alloy and joint. Follow the manufacturer's connection, cartridge-change and shutdown instructions. Keep the working surface clean and tinned, use suitable fume control, and avoid excessive pressure or abrasive damage to plated tips. Use the supplied holder and cleaning accessories as directed. Automatic power regulation does not replace operator training, safe handling or your facility's process checks.
Frequently Asked Questions
What is the TMT-2000S-KM?
It is a K Series tip configuration of the Thermaltronics TMT-2000S soldering system.
Which tips does this configuration use?
Thermaltronics lists K Series cartridges for TMT-2000S-K and TMT-2000S-KM. Select the appropriate geometry and temperature grade.
Does the vendor confirm an SHP-KM handpiece in the packing list?
The shared list names SHP-K but states that the handpiece varies by configuration. Confirm the exact KM-specific handpiece code before purchase.
Can the same supplied handpiece use K, P and S tips?
Do not assume so. Those are platform-level options associated with different system configurations and appropriate handpieces.
Is a soldering tip included?
The shared packing list does not name a tip-cartridge part number. Confirm current package contents before ordering.
How much power does it provide?
Maximum output is 50W RF. The separate 55W specification is input consumption.
Is 50°C the maximum soldering temperature?
No. That figure is the maximum enclosure temperature. Choose the suitable tip-cartridge temperature grade for your process.
What is the lead time?
This listing carries a 3–4 week lead-time notice. Contact MTE Solutions to confirm current availability and delivery expectations.
