Installation ® Installation 1. Requirements for installation Fresh water connection: Stop cock with 3/4" outer-thread diameter (washing machine connection), Water pressure 2 - 10 bar (29 - 145 psi). Drainage connection: Plastic tube - inner diameter 50 mm ”or larger. A ven- tilated syphon which serves as odour preventor should be included in the planning.
Page 7
Installation ® 3. Connecting the processor Water connection: Fit water-inlet hose (grey) at the rear of the machine and connect to the prepared fresh water supply. All other hoses (see diagram ): Connect the enclosed hoses according to colour system to backside of machine. Put hose clip (enclosed in accessory bag) over hose end, before attaching to connection.
Initial Operation ® Danger of Overflow! Use the included cable binders (accessory bag) to secure the hoses. Fix all hose ends which guide into syphon or collecting container, so that they do not drop into the liquid. Very important: The hose piping should be straight (without the hoses going up and down) with a constant fall.
Mode of Operation ® Mode of Operation The processor develops, fixes, rinses and dries your films. The temperatures, speed and replenishment rates required for processing various types of film-mate- rials can be individually selected and stored in the microprocessor control unit. Automatic filling and heating When the machine is switched on, the water tank fills and chemical baths heat up automatically.

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 8). Before use... Close water-drainage stop cock. Open water tap. Switch processor on. Check liquid level in replenishment and drainage collecting containers.
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 ® Time Replenishment (Antioxidation function, Flood replishment) Also during the stand-by, the developer chemicals are subject to change which causes their deterioration. By means of the time replenishment, a replenishment cy- cle is activated after a set time. With this function, the quality of the developer chem- icals are maintained even when standing idle for long periods.
Page 14
Operation ® Processing time The processing time, is the time, it takes the front end of a film from the infeed of the processor until it reaches the film exit. The processing time is set by the speed with which the film is transported through the machine. Depending on the require- ments, this time can be varied from 1 to 5 minutes adjusted in 0.1-minute-steps (Ad- justing the processing time: see page 13...
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 10 sec. with 500 ml replen- isher rate per m film surface. The replenisher rate has to be adjusted depending on film material, chemicals and film throughput.
Operation ® Autofill Function In case new chemicals have to be filled into the processor (after installation, tank cleaning), the tanks can be filled automatically by means of the autofill function. Herewith, the tank is filled for a fixed period of 17 minutes, e.g. chemicals are pumped up from the replenisher tanks into the machine.
Operation ® Manual replenishment: Switch to manual mode. Press required replenishment button for developer (7) or fixer (8) - respective button illuminates. Start replenishment cycle by pressing arrow-button “up” (2) or cancel replen- ishment cycle by pressing arrow-button “down” (3). In the memory five sets of parameters can be stored and be recalled into working memory.
Operation ® Lock Function To prevent unintentional change of operation parameters the input can be locked. If the input is locked any attempt to change the parameters will display an error “LO” (locked). Activating and de-activating of the input lock: Press buttons 4 and 5 “Enter Memory”...
Operation ® Removal and Installation of Dryer Rack (two-parts) Removal: Push small, black slide (1) downwards. Pull dryer plate small (2) out of the dryer. The upper part of the dryer can now be removed. Hold the dryer at the front distance bar (3) and the whole of the metal plate in the back (4).
Care ® Care Daily Care Before use... Remove dirt and dust from film-infeed with soft cloth. Run 2 - 3 cleaner films through processor to remove all accumulated dirt and dust from the rollers. Check the liquid level in the replenishment containers and if necessary refill. After use...
Care ® Thorough Cleaning Depending on the quantity of films processed, a thorough cleaning is necessary every 3 - 6 months. Tank cleaners are available for developer and water baths. The fixer bath is cleaned with water. When preparing chemical tank cleaners, follow manufacturers instructions explicitly.

Maintenance / Disposal ® 2.31. If required repeat items 2.20 to 2.30 (observe information concerning temperature, time, cleaning procedure contained in the 2.32. datasheet of the tank cleaning agent) 2.33. Remove roller racks from the machine and remove dirt under flowing water using a soft rag or sponge 2.34.

Tips and Tricks ® Tips and Tricks Removal of Control PCB To reach the screws of the control PCB remove the film over the keyboard in the front area about 20 mm (lift up). Stop start-cycle The start-cycle (after switching the machine on) can be manually interrupted. To stop start-cycle, press both arrow-buttons (2+3) simultaneously.
Tips and Tricks ® ® The PROMIX A40 is a fully automatic chemical mixing machine for preparing developer and fixer bath chemicals of either powder form or liquid concentrates. All stages are guided and controlled by means of a microprocessor. Thanks to a large reserve tank, up to 3 machines can be connected and continue to operate, without having to interrupt the working process.
