Connecting the Plumbing
• Use local codes when installing the FLOOR DRAIN.
• Do not use brass or copper for the FLOOR DRAIN. Use PCV or cast iron.
• Do not make a solid connection to the FLOOR DRAIN. Use an open FLOOR DRAIN with a minimum
clearance of 2.5 cm (1 in.) between the tubing from the processor and the FLOOR DRAIN.
[1] Check that the developer and fixer WEIRS are installed correctly.
[2] Use ⁄
12-inch (1.27 cm) ID tubing, Part No. 760476, to connect the developer, fixer, and wash DRAINS to
the FLOOR DRAIN. See the illustration on page 20. Order the tubing by the foot.

Environmental Requirements
Connecting the Exhaust Hose
The building ventilation system must
draw air to the outside of the building,
so that no air is reused.
[1] Connect a 7.6 cm (3 inch) EXHAUST HOSE,
not supplied, to the EXHAUST ADAPTER.
[2] Connect the EXHAUST HOSE to the
EXHAUST DUCT from the building ventilation
system.
[3] Leave a 5 cm (2 inch) air gap between the
EXHAUST HOSE and the EXHAUST DUCT.

IMPORTANT
• If the venting is not correct, fumes will corrode equipment and cause artifacts. Do not install the
processor or accessories if the venting is not correct.
• The building ventilation system must draw air to the outside of the building, so that no air is reused.
• The AIR FLOW is correct when the fumes are flowing out of the processor through the EXHAUST
HOSE. Before installing the processor, or at the next service call, do the following to check that the
AIR FLOW is correct.

H112_0071BCB
EXHAUST ADAPTER
981159 19

Checking the Ventilation
Do the following procedure, using an AIR METER TL-2431, to check that the venting is correct.
[1] If the processor is installed, deenergize the processor.
[2] Disconnect the EXHAUST HOSE from the processor EXHAUST ADAPTER.
[3] Place the RUBBER HOSE on the CENTER CONNECTOR of the AIR METER.
[4] If a replenishment J TUBE, Part No. 592380, is available, do the following. If not, advance to Step 5.
(a) Cut off and discard the curved portion of the replenishment J TUBE.
(b) Install the tapered end of the replenishment J TUBE into the RUBBER HOSE.
(c) Advance to step 7.
[5] If a replenishment J TUBE is not available, align a HOSE SUPPORT, such as a straightened coat
hanger, next to the RUBBER HOSE. The ends of the HOSE SUPPORT and the RUBBER HOSE must
be together.
[6] Place TAPE around the HOSE SUPPORT and the RUBBER HOSE at 3 points. See the illustration.
IMPORTANT
The TAPE should not inhibit the AIR FLOW through the RUBBER HOSE.
[7] Insert the replenishment J TUBE or the RUBBER HOSE into the EXHAUST HOSE until the end is 30 cm
(12 in.) from the end of the EXHAUST HOSE.
IMPORTANT
The RUBBER HOSE or J TUBE must be in the center of the EXHAUST DUCT.
[8] Hold the AIR METER vertical, and record the average of several readings.
