What temperature should I use to melt ESP module (WROOM) to PCB, while not melting the solder inside module?

What kind of solder is used inside Espressif's ESP modules? What is the melting point?

When we solder (or remove) by a heating table, at what temperature will the solder inside the module not melt?

that info is in the data sheet

Datasheet says 250℃ peak temperature. But I'm still confused (I'm new to hardware design). Does it mean that the solder inside module won't melt at 250℃, and, let's say we're trying to remove one, at that temperature we can pull the ESP module off the PCB (fast and don't have to keep it horizental) without any inside damage ?
