Because the readout displays the actual temperature, there is no need for an auxiliary thermometer. The CPP2 and CPP3 use an electronically-controlled thermostat system to regulate temperature after it is set by the user, and it displays the temperature on an LCD panel. Once the desired temperature is attained, the machine will hold it within 0.1C. The temp is set against the thermometer reading, and the dial is adjusted as needed. The system is designed to be used with a trusted thermometer, such as the Jobo #3321 process thermometer, which has specially designed holding brackets in both systems. Though the dial itself is not very precise, the thermostat is accurate up to 0.1C. Similar max roll film capacities can be run in 1500-system tanks as well.Īll expert drums can be run on CPA or CPP machines.īoth the CPE2 and CPA2 systems use a mechanical dial thermostat control system to set and regulate the processing temperature. Note that these max roll capacities exceed the safe max motor load capacity. Up to 12 rolls of 35mm in a Multitank 12, 16 rolls of 120 or 8 rolls of 220.Up to 18 sheets of 4X5 in a MultiTank 8 with 3X 2509 reels.ULF or prints up to 20X24 in a 3063 expert drum.Up to 10 rolls of 120, or 8 rolls of 35mm can be loaded in a 1500 system tank (1520+1530+1530), but this will also exceed the safe maximum motor load capacity of the system.Įxpert drums (3000 system) cannot be used on any CPE2 system. Note that running 8 rolls of 120 requires 800ml and will exceed the safe maximum motor load capacity. Up to 6 rolls of 35mm, 8 rolls of 120 or 4 rolls of 220.Up to 12 sheets of 4X5 in a MultiTank 6 with 2X 2509 reels.Jobo 1000ml bottles fit perfectly into the CPE2 slots. Any run for which a larger amount of chemistry is needed requires auxiliary chemical storage bottles. The maximum motor load capacity suggested by Jobo for the small machines is 600ml, whereas the large machines can handle up to 1,500ml.Įxpert drums cannot be used on CPE2/CPE2+ machines.
#JOBO CPE 2 LIFT INSTALLATION MANUAL#
Manual processors are divided into two groups that are defined by size and capacity: large processors (CPA2, CPP2, and the all-new CPP3) and small processors (CPE2 and CPE2+)Īll AutoLabs and manual processors share the same main features: automatic agitation and automatic temp control. However, they all (ATL1000 included) share the three main automatic features that make them fully automatic: automatic agitation, automatic temp control and automatic timed fill/drain of chemistry to the processing tank and rinse. Jobo processors are divided into two main categories: fully automatic processors and manual processors.Īutomatic processors are usually called AutoLabs, and are available in two sizes: compact, tabletop processors and large, commercial-style processors.Įxcept for the ATL1000, all other AutoLabs are fully user-programmable and have various levels of automation. This FAQ page will discuss the various options in choosing a manual Jobo processor.įor more information about AutoLab options, please contact us directly.ĬatLABS always recommends working with a lift, so this page assumes that all processors discussed are equipped with a lift.
