Chuck,
Very sorry, assumed you meant for operation. This makes perfect sense
for deconstruction purposes. My bad.

No, I meant exactly what I said.
When you are removing epoxy potting compound, put it in an oven
set to 140C, and let it cook until up to temperature. The potting
epoxy will become about as soft as pencil eraser rubber. You can
then pick at it, and get pretty big chunks to come off. When the
epoxy starts to feel hard again, pop it back in the oven.

OBTW, we are not talking about crystal ovens here, but rather unpotting
power supply modules.

This seems a bit toasty and is equivalent to 284F. Maybe meant 140F
not C?
An oven set to 140C is your friend when doing jobs like
this.
