Overview

Product Description

The Kodak X-Omat 3000 RA Processor is a general-purpose radiographic processor, which uses a conventional roller transport system to accommodate both roll and sheet film.

Features of the 3000 RA Processor include microprocessor control, an operator interface, error detection and indicators, and “smart” replenishment. The 3000 RA Processor also provides 4 operatorselectable film processing cycles, which run at 4 default transport speeds. The 4 cycles are:

• K/RA

• Rapid

• Standard

• Extended

Each cycle has default parameters for transport speed, developer and fixer replenishment volumes, and for developer, fixer, and Dryer temperatures. These default parameters are stored in memory, but can be modified by the operator.

All cycles, except for the K/RA cycle, use standard RP chemicals and film. The K/RA cycle requires RA chemicals and film.

OPERATORS MANUAL

Operating Characteristics

• All menus appearing before the point you are required to enter the access code give you only 20 seconds to press a key. If you do not press a key within that time, the Walk-Up Menu will appear.

• All menus appearing after the point you are required to enter the access code give you 2 minutes to press a key. If you do not press a key within that time, the Walk-Up Menu will appear.

• When you first turn on the Processor, the wash water and Drive Motor run for 4 minutes and then turn off. The Replenishment Pumps also turn on briefly.

• If either the developer or fixer solution evaporated while the Processor was off, the developer and fixer tanks will be automatically replenished to their overflow levels when you turn on the Processor.

• When film is fed, the Drive Motor and the Dryer Blower turn on immediately, and the water turns on as soon as the first film reaches the Fixer/Wash Crossover.

• The Drive Motor will not operate if the Top Cover of the Processor is open.

• In an area that is dark or dimly lit, the room light Sensors on the Processor will detect the lack of bright light and turn off the illuminated messages on the Display Panel to prevent the fogging of the film which it “thinks” is being processed. The Soft Keys are also disabled if you use the Processor in an area that is dark or dimly lit. If you would like the menu options and messages that appear on the Display Panel to remain illuminated when the Processor is operating in a dark or dimly lit room, contact your qualified service provider.

• All errors and warnings cause the alarm on the Processor to sound twice when a film is fed into the Film Detector.

OPERATORS MANUAL

Roll Film: Use a sheet of film as a Leader. Make sure that the sheet film is as wide as, or wider than,

the roll film and at least 18 cm (7 in.) long. Using 2.5 cm (1 in.) wide tape, such as 3M SCOTCH Brand Polyester Film Tape No. 850, fasten the

roll film, emulsion side up, to the Leader, making sure that the adhesive side of the tape is not exposed. Most other types of tape are not acceptable, because their bases are soluble in the processing solutions.

Note

Tape the leading edge of the roll film, emulsion side up, within 5.1 cm (2 in.) of the vertical (lengthwise) center of the Leader. See the figure.

Important

For reliable transport of the roll film, apply slight tension on both the feed and take-up ends of the roll film, such as with a Kodak Roll Film Take-Up, Model 11.

Default Setpoints and Configurations

Section 1: Summary of Default Settings

Setup information consists of the process setpoints and the film Processor configurations. All setup information that was preset at the factory is listed in the tables below.

Setup information is stored in battery backed-up RAM (Random Access Memory). Therefore, you do not need to program new values every time that you turn on the Processor. Even if power to the

Processor is interrupted or the Processor is turned off, you do not need to program the Processor.

If you wish, you may change the setup information by using the Soft Keys on the Display Panel. See the following pages for instructions on how to set up the Processor.

Section 2: Basic Setup Options

Selecting a Film Processing Cycle Description:

The 3000 RA Processor offers 4 cycles to process film in the Processor: Extended, Standard, Rapid, and K/RA. You may select the Extended, Standard, or Rapid cycle in either of 2 ways: by using the Cycle Change Key or by using the Display Panel. The Cycle Change Key is located on the feed end of the Processor. The Display Panel also provides you with a convenient means of selecting a cycle. Selecting the Extended, Standard, or Rapid cycle does not require the use of the access code. The Kwik (K/RA) cycle, which provides the fastest film processing time, is only available through the Display Panel and does require use of the access code.

After you select a cycle, the microprocessor automatically adjusts the transport speed, replenishment volumes, and solution temperatures to the programmed values for the selected cycle. When changing from one cycle to another, you do, however, need to set the Dryer temperature to the lowest setting that still provides good drying. See the procedure for setting the Dryer temperature on Page 25.

Calibrating the Replenishment System

Description:

Calibrate the replenishment system every 3 months.

Calibrating the replenishment system determines the actual rate of the processing solution flowing through the Replenishment Pumps. To calibrate the Pump you need to first measure the volume of solution pumped during a set time period, and secondly enter the information into the microprocessor by using the procedure outlined below. The microprocessor then computes the flow rate of the solution through the Pump and adjusts the length of time that the Pump must operate so that the volume of replenishment delivered equals the replenishment volume selected.

Important

The volume of replenishment solution actually measured during this procedure is not the volume delivered for a 35 x 43 cm sheet of film.

OPERATORS MANUAL

Setting the Automatic On and Off Timers

Description:

The Processor software provides you programmable timers so that you may program 2 distinct on and off times for the Processor each day. The Automatic Timers allow you to specify a start time for the Processor to energize automatically so that the processing solutions and the Dryer will have reached their setpoint temperatures before you arrive at the work site. The Processor can store up to 2 “start times” and 2 “off times” for each day of the week to coincide with changing shifts or with weekend schedules.

Example of Use: For instance, if you would like the Processor to be warmed up and ready to accept films by the time you arrive at work in the morning, you may set Timer1 to turn on the Processor at 6:00 a.m. If you operate during 2 distinct shifts and there is a large lapse in time between the 2 shifts, you might want to set Timer1 to turn off the Processor at the end of the first shift. You might then want to set Timer2 to turn on the Processor again an hour before the second shift starts for the afternoon. And finally, you might want to set Timer2 to turn off the Processor for the night at the end of the second shift.

Important

Do not set the On and Off Timers within 15 minutes of each other. To ensure the correct operation of the Processor, the Processor must remain on for at least 15 minutes before the Automatic Off Timer turns it off. Likewise, the Processor must remain off for at least 15 minutes before the Automatic On Timer turns it on.

Procedure for Setting Timer1 Initially:

Note

If the Timers are already set and you wish to change the on and off times, follow the procedure on Page 56. Before proceeding with the steps below, be sure that you have completed the procedure for setting the time and date

on Page 26. If you are reading through the steps below to become familiar with the procedure and are not actually setting the

timers, the screens that you see displayed may be different from the sample screens shown in this procedure.

OPERATORS MANUAL

Selecting Sleep Mode Options

Description:

You can choose how the Sleep Mode feature operates by selecting or not selecting the Roller Jog and the Cool Down options and by setting the values of the On and Off Timers for the Auto Start-Up option.

The selection of the Roller Jog feature reduces chemical buildup on the Rack and Crossover Rollers. When the Roller Jog feature is selected, the transport Motor and wash water activate periodically supplying the Crossover Troughs with water. Therefore, it is recommended that you select the Roller Jog option when operating the Processor in Sleep Mode.

The selection of the Cool Down feature prevents the condensation of processing solutions. When you select the Cool Down feature, the Dryer Blower operates for 3 hours to exhaust the moist, warm air from the Processor. Therefore, the Cool Down feature, like the Roller Jog feature, reduces the buildup of chemicals on the Rack and Crossover Rollers. It is recommended that you also select the Cool Down option when operating the Processor in Sleep Mode.
