  • INSTALLATION

    Install the rollers as described in the following.

    NOTE! Min. 2 persons are required for this

    operation.

    (See illustration opposite).

    Place the machine in its final position.

    Open the locks (1).

    Mount the bearings on the rollers observing that

    the bearings with the small springs (2) must

    be installed on the lower gum section roller (3)

    and on the lower exit roller (4).

    Normally the brushes are already installed, but

    if not make sure that all rollers (5) below the

    brushes are also fitted with the

    bearings/springs (2).

    the bigger springs (6) and washers (7) must

    be installed between the rollers and bearings

    in the end opposite of the drive gears on the

    gum section rollers (3) and (8).

    on 135-models the bearings (9) for the small

    rollers in the developer section are of a

    different type as for the other rollers.

    Lower the rollers into the grooves and finally

    close the locks (1).

  • HOSE CONNECTIONS

    (See illustration opposite)

    Make the following hose connections underneath

    the right tank side:

    NOTE! All drain hoses must have a positive fall

    from the processor to the waste containers and

    drain.

    NOTE! Never lead drain hoses from the

    developer section to a drain, as most developers

    are strong pollutants and it is strictly forbidden

    to empty this type of chemistry into the public

    sewer system.

    CAUTION! When establishing especially the

    drain connection observe that copper or brass

    should not be used in the draining system as the

    chemicals involved might attack it.

    Therefor plastic or rubber is recommended.

    Check with the chemicals supplier for details).

    NOTE! Be careful that the drain hoses do not

    sag or form water traps.

    Repl. (1) (Red)(Container sensor optional).

    Connect to developer replenishment container.

    Fill Up (3) (Clear)(Optional).

    Connect to developer fill container.

    Waste (4)(Container sensor optional).

    Connect to waste container.

  • DEVELOPER SECTION

    (See illustration opposite).

    In the developer section the plate is developed and

    the remaining unexposed emulsion is removed from

    the plate by the built-in brush rollers.

    CIRCULATIONA circulation pump (M4) recirculates the developerthrough two spray tubes. A filter in the circulationsystem keeps the solution clean.

    TEMPERATURE/LEVEL CONTROLThe developer bath is equipped with a heater and a

    thermostate to keep the temperature in range, and a

    max. level detector circuit.

    DEVELOPER DOMEThe brushes are located inside the developer dome.

    A vacuum pump (K2) keeps the dome filled with

    developer solution.

    REPLENISHMENT/ANTI-OXIDATION

    SYSTEM(Only active if CONDUCTIVITY is set to OFF in

    CONFIGURATION.)

    The replenishment system automatically adds fresh

    developer to the developer section to compensate

    for chemicals expended during processing and for

    lost activity caused by plate development.

    The processor measures the plate size to determine

    the correct amount of replenisher for each plate.

    The anti-oxidation system adds fresh developer to

    the developer section to compensate for lost activity

    caused by oxidation.

    The anti-oxidation system parameters can be set

    differently for anti-oxidation in OFF mode and in

    STAND-BY mode.

    The replenishment developer is added to the

    section by means of a pump (K3).

    Another pump (M11) fills the section when level is

    low or section is empty.

    The various parameters for the anti-oxidation

    function are set in the SET-UP parameters (see

    Section 4 - Service Information later in this

    manual).

    CONDUCTIVITY

    (Not all models)

    (Only active if CONDUCTIVITY is set to ON in

    CONFIGURATION.)

    The Conductivity Control System (CCS) adds

    replenishment to the developer section to keep the

    electrical conductivity of the developer at a desired

    value.

    When fresh chemistry is filled into the developer

    section, the CCS measures the conductivity and

    uses this value as a reference until chemistry is

    changed.

    Basically, the CCS maintains the same conductivity

    as plates are run through the processor.

    However, to compensate for wear and pollution of

    the chemistry, the conductivity is increased

    proportionally with processed plate area.

    The various parameters for the CONDUCTIVITY

    function are set in the SET-UP parameters (see

    Section 4 - Service Information later in this

    manual).

    CYCLONEThe solution from the dome and the

    replenishment/anti-oxidation solution is let into the

    developer section via the cyclone.

    The cyclone prevents foaming of the solution.

    The cyclone is equipped with a specially designed

    drain tube for emptying of the developer section.

  • GUM SECTION

    (See upper illustration opposite).

    In the GUM section a thin layer of gum solution is

    applied to the developed and washed plate to

    protect it from oxidation, dirt, fingerprints etc.

    Later, when the plate is fixed in the printing machine,

    the layer will be rinsed off.

    If the plate has been corrected or if it has to be used

    again on a later occasion you should rewash and

    refinish the plate.

    (See how in the User Manual delivered with this

    processor).

    CIRCULATIONThe GUM section will be filled with gum.

    The oscillating pump (K4) will keep the appropriate

    gum level and during processing the pump will

    apply gum to the plate through the distributing tube.

    The excess gum will run back into the GUM

    container through the overflow opening.

    GUM-RINSE PROGRAMThe processor features an automatic gum-rinse

    program which cleans the gum section rollers.

    The rinse program works by means of a solenoid

    valve (K13) which lets in fresh water through a

    spray-tube. When rinsing the solenoid valve (K14)

    will be closed and the gum rinse solenoid valve (K15)

    will be open so the rinse water will run into the drain.

    NOTE! The rinse program should be performed

    once a day.

    See how to run the rinse program in the User

    Manual delivered with this processor.

    DRYER SECTION

    (See lower illustration opposite).

    In the dryer section the plate is dried, and so

    further handling of the plate is possible immediately

    after it exits the processor.

    2 fans (M5/M6) blow hot air through 2 pairs of

    air-tubes and dries the plate on both sides.

  • TRANSPORT SYSTEM

    (See illustration opposite).

    The plate is transported through the processor by a

    series of rollers and roller guides.

    The rollers are driven by a drive motor and a worm

    gear drive system.

    The pre-heat section rollers (1) transport the plate

    through the pre-heat section.

    The first roller pair (2) in the pre-wash section leads

    the plate underneath the brush (3) (optional) and the

    spray tubes (4) wash the plate on both sides. The

    roller (5) makes sure of proper contact between

    brush and plate. The stop-roller (6) ensures that

    water does not run back into the pre-heat section.

    The rollers (7) at the section exit squeeze any

    residual water off the plate.

    The rubber rollers (8) at the developer section

    entrance always run dry to ensure a homogeneous

    development. The rollers (9) ensure that the plate is

    transported correctly underneath the brushes (10)

    and the rollers (11) make sure of proper contact

    between brushes and plate.

    The rollers (12) at the developer tank exit squeeze

    any residual chemicals off the plate.

    In the wash section the plate is washed on both

    sides by means of the spray tubes (13) and

    brushed on the upper side by means of the brush

    (14) (optional). The stop-roller (15) on top of the

    entrance rollers (16) prevents that the wash water

    runs back into the developer section, and water is

    squeezed off the plate by the section exit rollers

    (17).

    The gum section contains one roller pair (18) and a

    smaller roller (19) situated close to the upper roller.

    The gum solution from the application tube (20)

    forms a small bath between these two rollers and a

    thin layer of finisher is applied to the plate while the

    extra finisher is forced backwards.

    The exit roller pair (21) takes the plate when dry

    and leads it out of the processor.

  • INITIAL CONFIGURATION

    If the processor is not properly configured ex. if the

    software has been reset to default or if the software

    has been changed you must do the following:

    (See lower diagram opposite).

    Turn the processor's main switch off and then

    on.

    When in OFF mode push the Stand-by key.

    The display changes to the configuration menu

    starting with the processor variant selection

    parameter.

    Push "SET" to enter the variants parameter, then

    use "Up/Down" keys to find your present

    processor type and then push "OK" to confirm.

    Choosing a variant will update the various

    configuration parameters to the standard settings

    for the selected processor variant.

    Now use Up/Down keys to scroll through the

    various configuration parameters to check if all

    settings reflect the current configuration and if

    not push SET to enter a parameter, use

    Up/Down keys to select the proper setting and

    confirm pushing OK.

    See the parameter list in CONFIGURATION

    later in this chapter for references.

    NOTE! It is necessary to make proper settings to

    at least the processor variant parameter before

    being able to exit the configuration function.

    To end the configuration push RETURN.

    The processor will reconfigure and then return to

    OFF mode when initialized.

    *) Whether or not the function is available

    depends on the processor type and

    PLATE SIZESThe table of the 8 most significant plate sizes to be

    processed in the machine is essential to the

    processors plate size recognition, which again is

    important for the replenishment system, that will add

    a fixed amount of replenishment per m2 processed

    plate.

    During processing the processor measures the plate

    length, consults the plate size table to determine the

    width and then calculates the area of the specific

    plate.

    Set up the plate size table as follows:

    Enter the PLATE SIZE function.

    Use Up/Down keys to select the plate size

    number you want to specify (Size 1, 2.....8) then

    push ENTER.

    Use Up/Down keys to select the parameter you

    want to change: WID (Plate width), LEN (Plate

    length) or P.PLATES (Parallel plate compatible

    plate size).

    Push SET.

    Use Up/Down keys to change the value and

    push OK to confirm.

    Parallel plates:

    When processor is set to run parallel plates it is

    possible to run two different plates side by side and

    the plate size recognition system will detect each

    plate individually and the plate counter will count

    both plates.

    NOTE! The "PAR.PLATES" parameter in each

    processing program has to be set to ON to

    make the parallel plates function work properly.

  • CALIBRATING THE PRE-HEAT SECTION HEATERS

    WARNING! Let the pre-heat section cool down

    properly before commencing.

    Tools:

    - Test plate of desired size and thickness.

    - Thermo-strips (71-116C).

    GENERAL

    The calibration procedure typically requires several

    measurements.

    Always let the test plate cool down and replace the

    thermo-strip between each measurement.

    NOTE! It is not necessary to replace the

    thermo-strip if measured values are below 96C.

    PROCESSOR CONDITIONS

    The processor must be started
