NDT - Filmprocessor
The processor is designed in such a way that only a cold water supply, drain and power connection are
necessary. The plumbing is carried out according to DIN 1986/1988 and must comply with local plumbing
codes.The cold water supply must have a shut-off valve / tap system connected with a ¾“ outlet (washing
machine connection) to the processor.
Make sure that the water supply tap is always accessable as it must be opened before work and closed
after work. By means of the pressure/flow regulator (integrated into the water solenoid valve of the
processor) the flow rate is controlled to 2.5Lt/min assuming a water supply pressure of 0.3-10 bar.
It is recommended to install a second water supply outlet (with shut-off tap) and with approx. 2.5 mtr/8ft of
hose for rack cleaning purposes.
The drain tubes of the processor can be drained separately or together, according to local regulations
and health/safety requirements. The hose connections from the processor to the outlet (drain) are
enclosed. The
fixer
can be collected separately in a plastic container (storage tank) or directly connected
to a silverrecovery unit. The
developer
overflow can be collected in a plastic container. In order to avoid
a backwash of the drained, used chemicals, the drain hoses should be free of bends and with a constant
fall. The drain must be correctly ventilated!
A floor or wall drain may be used which should include an anti syphon system.
Note: Do not use brass or copper in the drain lines.
The minimum diameter of the drain lines should be 40 mm.
Electrical:
For operation, a seperate 16 Amp fused socket with earth leakage protection is required.
(for further information, consult the processor datasheet)
Replenishment:
Each replenisher storage tank has a 30 litre capacity and should be located on ground level with easy
access - please take notice of the required minimum wall clearence for servicing and cleaning
Automatic Cooling:
The processor electronics will automatically detect over temperature developer
conditions and then activate a cold water cooling system (Chiller). Where a Chiller is not used, the
temperature of the incoming „mains“ cold water supply should be between 7 - 15 C in order for the
cooling system to operate efficiently.
Processor ventilation:
The processor is supplied with an exhaust port located at the feed end of the
processor. During installation, the safety cover of the port should be removed by a qualified person and
the open port must then connected to the main exhaust facility at the installation site (with sufficient power
to ventilate the warm exhaust air away.
Where the processor is installed in a „through wall“ location whereby an auto feeder or feed table is
positioned in a darkroom and the main body of the processor is in daylight, it is important that the
darkroom is pressurised to ensure a positive airflow from feed to dryer thus avoiding condensation related
problems.
