Soldering station Ersa RDS-80. A diode or zener diode with a gray stripe is leaking. We need help in identifying this part and its denominations.
Below you can find a very crude schematic. Looks like the diode in question, probably a generic silicon model (1N4148 or similar), protects the switching transistor from reverse current/voltage. https://www.fingers-welt.de/phpBB/viewtopic.php?t=7176
All diodes 1N4148 with a black stripe, and this one with a gray. I would like to get a specific answer on this detail.

MELF diodes with one grey stripe is only the BAS8x ones. Actually, as I saw, are these ones only awailable from Vishay, note, that this ones from Vishay have a black stripe instead of the grey one. But the parameter should be equivalent as can be seen in the datasheet. Verify therefore other photos of the RDS80 board. You'll find some with that diode have a black stripe. But could you find out why the diode has become faulty? The SOT23 device (possibly a transistor), which is connected to that diode, could be faulty too. You also have to check other components become possibly faulty. What is the matter with that soldering station? Regards

What a pity, Englishmen will not really understand your great jokes. Please keep on joking in the "juice shop"!

She began to experience similar symptoms described here: https://www.fingers-welt.de/phpBB/viewtopic.php?t=7176 Similarly, the 3b smd pnp transistor sot-23 (bc856) and this unknown diode were heated. All other elements are working and this transistor next to the diode is also working. I assume that the transistor opens when the triac is closed by the command from the processor for supplying voltage +5 v at the time of measuring the resistance of the soldering iron heater. Also, for this unknown diode at a certain moment, a voltage of 24V is suitable. the soldering iron heats up when the triac is closed. There were cases when the plug came off when working with the soldering station soldering iron cord. Perhaps at this moment without load, the process failed and both voltages + 5v and an alternating voltage of 24v were encountered on this ill-fated diode, which was the result of a malfunction. Apparently it was a Schottky diode, I put 1N4148. The station is working properly now, time will tell.

Hi Leonid, nice to hear that your soldering station is now working. With a 1N4148 it should be functioning as well as withe the BAS8x ones. But if you order some parts in the future so also place some BAS8x ones to your order Maybe the 40V (BAS81) type should be good enough, but I would choose the 60V (BAS83) to ensure a safety margin. Than by time I would replace the 1N4148 by the BAS83. Regards
I have already ordered in the online store (BAS83) and I definitely want to change 1n4148.

The diode is in the voltage divider, and takes an active part in measuring the resistance heating element of the soldering iron. From characteristics depends temperature.
