A quality X-Ray film processor
built and priced to make in-house film developing
cost-effective for small offices, clinics, satellite health care facilities,
and mobile installations. Special versions of this processor are available
for those sites desiring to specialize in mammographic film processing.
The MINI-MED has been designed to include many time, space, and money
saving features found in higher priced models. The MINI-MED is setting
a new standard for tabletop film processors.
SIMPLE OPERATION
A single switch activates the MINI-MED.
Ease of operation makes the unit simple for all staff members to use.
SPACE SAVING SIZE
The AFP MINI-MED requires a minimum of
precious darkroom space; it measures only 33' x 22' x 24' overall, with
only a 21" footprint. Processed film exits from the top, back to the
operator, allowing the unit to fit handily into corners or flush against
walls.
RELIABLE
The entire drive system is designed to
take advantage of AFP's technological advances. Our tank system now
features a completely new molded plastic uni-body design. A capacitor
start motor assures quiet and reliable operation. Worm drive greatly
reduces the load on the drive system and extends motor life. A reliable
electromechanical film detector allows the MINI-MED to accept all standard
sizes and colors of X-Ray film.
QUICK AND VERSATILE
The MINI-MED handles films as small as
4 inches and as large as 14" x 36" and can process 55 14" x 17" films
per hour. An optional "No Plumbing" Kit allows the unit to function
on self-contained chemicals, making the AFP MINI-MED ideal for mobile
installations or in areas of strict EPA regulations regarding processor
effluent disposal.
AFP MINI-MED FEATURES
BUILT-IN QUALITY CONTROL
Audible and visual indicators add to operator
convenience by signalling when the processor is ready to accept another
film.
DEVELOPER LEVEL AND TEMPERATURE
INDICATOR
Two separate indicator lights let the
operator know the developer solution is at the proper level and that
it has reached the optimum temperature for film processing.
CONSTANT READINESS DESIGN
A special "jog" cycle keeps rollers wet
while the machine is in standby, thus guaranteeing quality processing
throughout the day.
AUTOMATIC CHEMICAL REPLENISHER
An electronic activating system replenishes
solutions automatically keeping all chemicals used in the MINI-MED at
peak operating efficiency.
INTERLOCKING CROSSOVER
Films travel from tank to tank with minimum
exposure to air. The tank's new molded plastic uni-body design and the
interlocking design of each rack simplify removal.
AUTOMATIC WASH WATER CONTROL
Minimizes the consumption os water by
eliminating flow during standby mode. Approximately 1 pint of fresh
water is added during each "jog" cycle to eliminate algae problems associated
with standing water.
INFRARED DRYER
Energy efficient "I.R. heat lamps" dry
each film quickly and quietly. "Pivot-back" dryer rack enables easy
access to wash section.
SIMPLE INSTALLATION
The AFP MINI-MED runs on standard electrical
current (115V) and requires only a cold water line connection. The unit
is UL approved.
AUTOMATIC STANDBY
During periods of inactivity, the drive
motor and pumps shut off automatically reducing energy consumption and
mechanical wear. Temperatures are maintained electronically.
LIGHT PROOF COVERED FEED
TRAY
Reduces time in the dark.
SILVER RECOVERY CONNECTION
Fixer drainage hose fittings are compatible
with most standard silver recovery units.
SOLID STATE CIRCUITRY
Modular, state-of-the-art electronics
are designed to assure reliable operation with minimal start-up and
reset times. New audible tone alerts operator that processor is ready
to accept another film.
