Checking The Dryer Temperature - Kodak Prostar Operator's Manual

Checking the dryer
temperature
A-62051 May 2008
1. Turn on the drying heater and blower:
• If the water jacket is not full, fill the water jacket and press and
release the Mode switch to the Run position.
• If the water jacket is full, press and release the Mode switch to
the Run position.
2. Check the temperature reading on the dryer control after it stabilizes
(approximately 5 minutes).
If the drying temperature stabilizes (the displayed value stops
climbing) before it reaches the setpoint, the room temperature may
be too low or the specified setpoint is too high for the
Archive Processor to obtain. The green light will be off. (See
Operating Environment in the "Specifications" section.)
The Archive Processor is stabilized at the setpoint when the display
temperature cycles (decreasing, then increasing) and the indicator
light cycles (on, flashing, off).
3. Adjust the dryer temperature control (if necessary) so the dryer
temperature falls within the acceptable temperature range of 38 to
52°C (100 to 125°F).
Under most operating environments, a setting of 48°C (118°F) is
sufficient for proper drying. If the processor is operated in a high
temperature and high humidity environment, a setting as high as
52°C (125°F) may be required.
Adjusting the dryer temperature
1. Press and release the PGM button on the dryer control (located on
the right side of the control panel).
The light to the left of the SP (setpoint) illuminates. The control is
now in the setpoint mode.
2. Change the dryer temperature:
• Push and release the down arrow to lower the temperature.
• Push and release the up arrow to raise the temperature.
3. The amount of change to the setpoint is equal to the amount of
change to the dryer temperature.
For example, increasing the dryer temperature setpoint by 5 will
increase the dryer temperature by 5°C on the Archive Processor
220-240 V or 5°F on the Archive Processor 120 V.
NOTE: The Field Engineer can change the control readout to either
Fahrenheit (°F) or Celsius (°C).
