Developer temperature

You can adjust the developer temperature in the range of 25 to 39 °C. The

default setting is 34 °C (RP).

When adjusting the developer temperature, take into account:

◆

the current processing cycle,

◆ the type of developer used, and

◆ the film type.

The following table lists the recommended temperature settings, depending on

the developer that is used and the selected processing cycle:

❖

Remark: If you select a lower developer temperature than the current one, it takes

some time for the developer to cool, approximately 5 minutes per degree Centi-

grade. It may be more convenient to add new cooler developer or you can accel-

erate the cooling process by having a developer heat exchanger connected. This

developer heat exchanger is optionally available and is required:

– if the processing temperatures are to be changed quickly,

– if the difference between the set developer temperature and the ambient tem-

perature is lower than 4 °C, e.g. if the set developer temperature is 30 °C and

the room temperature is 26 °C or higher.

Keep in mind that each processing cycle corresponds to a specific devel-

oper temperature and dryer setting.

The developer temperature is not adjustable during film processing.
