10. CHEMICAL REPLENISHMENT SYSTEM
These sensors emit pulses of infrared light which has no effect on photographic emulsions.
When media is beneath the sensorbar, the pulses are reflected and detected by the sensor.
The pulses are transmitted to the control panel where they are „counted“ by the microprocessor.
When the number of pulses reaches the amount that has been programmed on the
microprocessor, the replenishment timer function starts.
The replenishment timer runs the replenishment pump(s) for the number of seconds that
have been set on the microprocessor. When the replenishment pumps are activated,
the replenisher solutions are pumped through filters located at the bottom of the external
replenisher tanks to the chemistry tank. The replenisher tanks are outside
of the film processor.
The filters should be checked monthly and be cleaned or replaced if necessary.

Whenever photographic material is processed, chemical components of the processing
solutionsd are used and by-products are left behind in the processing solutions. Replenisher
solutions are formulated to restore the chemistry to its original activity and to dilute the
by-products to a correct level. It is therefore necessary to add the proper amount of
replenisher for the amount of material that has been processed. Performed automatically
by the filmprocessor by way of infrared sensors installed across the complete feed width of
the filmprocessor.

WARNING: Separate the Film Processor from mains. To do so, switch the main power switch of the
processor to „0“ position. Wear safety goggles, protection gloves and clothing.
