  • Page 6: Installation

    Installation Installation 1. Requirements for installation Fresh water connection: Shut-off tap, thread with 3/4" outside diameter (wash- ing machine connection), Water pressure 2 - 10 bar (29 - 145 psi). Drainage connection: Plastic tube - inner diameter 50 mm (2”) or larger. A ventilated syphon which serves as odour preventor should be included in the planning.
  • Page 7 Installation 4. Connecting the processor Drainage and col- lecting containers Water connection: Fit water-inlet hose (grey) at the rear of the machine and connect to the prepared fresh water supply. Water overflow: The water overflow hose (∅ = 16 mm) is likewise connected at the rear of the unit. The hose is installed as described in the next section.
  • Page 8 Installation Hose Connections Optional Pay attention to the correct colour connections: Replenishment Developer: red; Fixer: blue; Overflow Water: clear Outlet Danger of Overflow! Use the included cable ties (accessory bag) to secure the hos- es. Fix all hose ends which lead into the syphon or collecting container, so that they do not drop into the liquid - otherwise liquid may overflow.
  • Page 9: Initial Operation

    Initial Operation Initial Operation Test run Important! Processor should not be run dry! Upon commissioning and every refilling the pumps must be vented. Close the three drainage stop cocks and fill the tanks and replenishment con- tainers with water. Open water inflow tap. Connect electrical socket and switch the machine on.

  • Page 11 Operation Attention: Upon first operation and each refilling of a developer check the function of the circulation pump and vent the pump if re- quired (see page 9). Before use... Close water-drainage stop cock. Open water tap. Switch processor on. Check liquid level in replenishment and drainage collecting containers.
  • Page 12: Switching The Machine On

    Operation Switching the Machine On Before switching the machine on, open the fresh water tap and close the water drainage tap (under control panel). Then switch the machine on (main switch is sit- uated under the control panel). Once the machine is switched on, a “Start-cycle” of eight minutes duration is activated: A replenishment cycle is carried out, the water tank fills automatically and the chemical baths heat up.

    Operation Setting of time-replenishment: Switch the unit off. Press the buttons processing time (4) and replenishment time (7) simultane- ously and keep pressed. Switch the machine on again and release the pressed buttons. Switch the time replenishment on or off with the cursor keys (2 and 3). If you enter “0”, time replenishment is off, “1”...
  • Page 14 Operation Developer temperature The developer temperature of the different film-materials depends on the develop- ing time. The faster a film has to be developed, the higher the temperature must be. The developer temperature can be set between 28-37 °C according to the individual requirements (Setting the developer temperature: see “Setting the working param- eters:”...
  • Page 15: Machine Cover Safety Disconnection

    Operation The chart below shows the replenishment time to be set for the requested replen- isher rate per m -film surface. The standard setting is 40 sec. with 600 ml replen- isher rate per m film surface. The replenisher rate has to be adjusted depending on film material, chemicals and film throughput.
