Electrical Requirements
Basic Requirements
• 30 A, single-phase or three-phase, 2- or 3-wire service, earth ground required.
• Main Power Disconnect (wall-mounted, not furnished).
The main power disconnect switch must consist of a minimum 2-pole thermo-magnetic circuit breaker with solid
neutral and common trip, or a fused disconnect switch. This switch must be:
• located on a wall adjacent to the processor in the lighted area
• easily accessible from the processor site
• visible from the processor site.

SECTION 4
Water and Drain Requirements
Water Supply
NOTE
If the upper limit of the water supply temperature to the processor is exceeded, the developer
temperature may not be controlled correctly. A water chiller may be required.
a.Processor Supply
(1) Temperature: 4° to 32°C (40° to 90°F)
(2) Pressure: 172.35 to 448.11 kPa (25 to 65 psi) Install regulator if required.
(3) Volume: Controlled within the processor to 5.7 L/min. (1.5 gal/min.)
(4) Filtration: A 50-micron filter is required.
b.Water service must comply with local codes.
c.Tempered water service is suggested for processor cleaning and for mixing chemicals manually.
d.A molded adapter and washer are provided to adapt the processor garden hose fitting to the 1/2 in. N.P.T.
(male).
Drain
• Capacity: 15 L/min. (4 gal/min.)
• Connection: Open drain; avoid solid connection
Do not use brass or copper for the drain lines. Drain service must comply with local codes.
NOTE
1-6246628
Page 11
Environmental Requirements
Room Temperature-Ambient
• Temperature: 15° to 30°C (59° to 86°F)
• Humidity: 15% to 76%
If the upper limit of the room ambient temperature is exceeded, the developer temperature may
not be controlled correctly. A water chiller may be required.
Air and Heat
a.Air Exhaust (full load)
(1) Volume: 1.9 m3/min. (65 ft3/min.)
(2) Temperature: 66°C (150°F) maximum
(3) Moisture>300 gr/min. or 121 gr/kg (55 gr/lb) of air
b.Heat load to room: 4220 kJ/hr (4000 Btu/hr)
SECTION 5
NOTE
To protect the processor and equipment directly interfaced with the processor, the
dryer must be vented according to the following specifications. Failure to properly
vent the dryer exhaust can cause corrosion within the processor and interfaced
equipment. In addition, the probability of processor-related film artifacts is
increased.
[1]The processor exhaust duct must be connected to the building exhaust ducting system. Disposal of
effluent air must comply with prevailing environmental codes.
[2]Use Table 4 to determine the proper amount of negative air within the duct at the end to be connected to
the processor. To prevent venturi effect at the duct opening, all measurements should be made at a
point 30.5 cm (12 in.) from the open end of the duct to be attached to the processor.
Compare the average reading with the table below.

NOTE
• Flooded Replenishment (U20 SWITCH 1) is set at the factory to ‘‘OFF’’.
• Regardless of the switch position, when the processor is in the STANDBY mode, wash water will not
flow to the WASH TANK unless the processor requires developer cooling.
• Water Conservation (U20 SWITCH 2) is set at the factory to ‘‘ON’’.
[1]Set U20 SWITCH 1 to ‘‘ON’’ for flooded replenishment. See Figure 53 on page 2-53.

Water Conservation
Understanding Water Conservation
• When the processor cycles into the STANDBY mode, and U20-SWITCH 2 is in the ‘‘ON’’ position, no water
will flow to the WASH TANK. As film is processed, water will flow to the WASH TANK.
• When the processor is not in use, it will continue to cycle in and out of the STANDBY mode without water
flowing to the WASH TANK.
• When U20-SWITCH 2 is set to the ‘‘OFF’’ position (non-water conservation), water will flow to the WASH
TANK whenever the processor comes out of the STANDBY mode.
Film Feed Signal
Adjusting the Film Feed Signal
The 100 CIRCUIT BOARD is set at the factory for 3 seconds. The range of adjustment is 3 - 13 seconds.
If adjustment of the FILM FEED SIGNAL is necessary, rotate R147 clockwise to increase, and
counterclockwise to decrease. See Figure 53 on page 2-53.

To provide for maximum operation of the processor, it is important that you check all parts of the processor for:
• Condition
• Cleanliness
• Adjustment
• Lubrication.
This section provides you with additional care and cleaning instructions that are not in the Operator Manual.
Make sure that you follow all the care and cleaning, and preventive maintenance procedures in the Operator
Manual.
See the publication ‘‘Care and Maintenance of Stainless Steel Processing Equipment’’ for further information.
How often you need to do the periodic maintenance procedures outlined in this manual, depends upon your
usage of the processor. As your usage of the processor increases, so should the frequency with which you do
the periodic maintenance procedures.
After you do the periodic maintenance procedures, process a number of films to check that:
• films are being transported through the processor correctly
• the quality of the film after processing is good.
Before you adjust, install, or remove any electrical component, disconnect the main power.
Electrical connections should only be done by qualified personnel.
When you use caustic solutions to clean, use rubber gloves and protective glasses. Always use
these solutions in a room that is correctly vented.

.
Film Guide Assembly(1) Check the bottom of the FILM GUIDE ASSEMBLY for corrosion and
dirt. Remove all corrosion or dirt found.
(2) Check the top of the FEED STAND for corrosion and dirt. Remove all
corrosion or dirt found.
(3) Check that the FILM GUIDE ASSEMBLY is correctly aligned with the
DETECTOR CROSSOVER ROLLERS.
Detector Crossover and
Crossover Assemblies
When you remove the CROSSOVER ASSEMBLIES from the processor, set
the top side on a flat, smooth surface. This prevents twisting them out of
square or changing the setting of the GUIDE SHOE.
Rollers(1) Check that the ROLLERS are clean and smooth.
Gears(1) Check that the GEARS of the ROLLERS for broken TEETH. Install
new ROLLERS if necessary.
(2) Check the DRIVE GEAR for wear or burrs. Install new GEARS if
necessary.
(3) Check the DETECTOR CROSSOVER ASSEMBLY for the correct
alignment by doing the following steps.
a.Remove the DETECTOR CROSSOVER ASSEMBLY from the
processor.
b.Place the top side of the DETECTOR CROSSOVER ASSEMBLY
on a flat, smooth surface.
c.Check that the SIDE PLATES are square against the flat, smooth
surface.
d.Check that the DETECTOR CROSSOVER ASSEMBLY seats
correctly when you install it.
Guide Shoes(1) Check that the LONGER TIPS are in the direction of the film travel.
Bearing, Brackets, and Nuts(1) Check the BEARINGS, BRACKETS, and NUTS for wear and broken
parts. Install new parts if necessary.

Squeegee Assembly
Rollers(1) Check that the DRIVEN ROLLERS and IDLER ROLLERS rotate freely.
(2) Check that the ROLLERS are clean and smooth.
Gears(1) Check the GEARS of the ROLLERS for broken TEETH. Install new
ROLLERS if necessary.
(2) Check the ROLLERS for wear and burrs. Install new ROLLERS if
necessary.
(3) Check the SQUEEGEE ASSEMBLY for the correct alignment by doing
the following steps.
a.Remove the SQUEEGEE ASSEMBLY from the processor.
b.Place the top side of the SQUEEGEE ASSEMBLY on a flat,
smooth surface.
c.Check that the SIDE PLATES are square against the flat, smooth
surface.
d.Check that the SQUEEGEE ASSEMBLY seats correctly when you
install it.
(4) Check that the LONGER TIPS are in the direction of the film travel.
Bearing, Brackets, and Nuts(1) Check the BEARINGS, BRACKETS, and NUTS for wear and broken
parts. Install new parts if necessary.
Rack Assemblies
To prevent contamination of the DEVELOPER, use the SPLASH GUARD
and the DRIP TRAY when you remove the FIXER RACK.
(1) Check the RACKS for cleanliness.
Rollers(1) Check that the ROLLERS are clean and smooth.
Sprockets(1) Check that the SPROCKETS are correctly engaged in the RACK
CHAIN.
(2) Check that the RACK is square.
Chain(1) Check that the LINKS of the CHAIN are not damaged. Rotate the
DRIVE GEAR so that the entire CHAIN makes one complete revolution
over the DRIVE SPROCKETS.
(2) Check that the tension of the CHAIN is correct. A CHAIN that is not
adjusted correctly may cause the ROLLERS to rotate incorrectly and
may cause the BEARINGS to wear excessively.
