Formulas and Analytical Specifications

Maintain the fresh tank formula specifications exactly as given on the following pages. Any large deviations from tank specifications, noted by chemical analysis, should be corrected immediately by appropriate additions or cuts to the tank solution. Any long-term tendency to deviate from the tank analytical specifications (e.g., slowly increasing pH) should be corrected by adjustment of the replenisher. The replenisher formula specifications are to be used as starting points for typical operations.

Important

Observe precautionary information on product labels and on the Material Safety Data Sheets.

WARNING! May cause eye and skin irritation and allergic skin reaction. Avoid contact with eyes, skin, and clothing.

*The difference between the mix levels and the analytical specifications for CD-2 and sodium sulfite are to compensate for aeration losses that occur during mixing and transfer of solution to the machine tank. The mix levels necessary to achieve the required analytical specifications will vary with mixing equipment and solution transfer techniques.

† Developer specific gravity will rise from 1.020 ± 0.003 to 1.025 ± 0.003 as the developer is seasoned.

To process VISION Premier Color Print Film, the normal replenisher flow rate must be increased by 8%. If the footage processed is less than one tank turnover, no change of pH is required in the replenisher, but small adjustment could be necessary in the tank processor. For larger quantity of VISION Premier Color Print Film (more than one tank turnover), it is recommended to increase the replenisher pH to 11.45.
