Technical Information Instruction Sheet – TI2375

August 2006

Features / Customer Product Specifications

Kodak Gen 5 films are fast, high contrast, broad band red-sensitive film. Their sharp dots are capable of high resolution at fine screen rulings. These films are optimized for exposure on film recorders that use a helium-neon laser (633 nm) or a red laser diode (630 to 670 nm) as the exposing source.

These films feature high processing speeds (development in as little as 20 seconds) and low replenishment rates in rapid-access developer and fixer, which contribute to improved productivity and reduced operating costs.

Gen 5 films are coated on a dimensionally stable Estar base with antistatic and surface properties to ensure dependable transport and handling behavior.

Safelight Recommendations

Use an EncapSulite T20/ND.75 safelight or equivalent. Keep the film at least 1.2 metres (4 feet) from the safelight. Do not expose the film to safelight illumination for longer than two minutes.
