We recommend Nova Monochrome print processors to free-up valuable space in your darkroom while saving you money at the same time. They are like turning three trays on their ends but still taking up less overall space than just one dish. But the money saving comes in when you consider your developer will last 4-5 weeks (rather than 4-5 hours) due to the extremely small surface area available for oxidisation.
With Monochrome processors, you also have the major advantage of no setting-up or clearing away. There is no user contact with the chemistry either - great for health and safety at college. Although not heated, all the chemicals stay in the processor. After the first print, all that is required is a rinse of the unique Nova clip and a quick shake to dislodge the water then the next print can be started. At the end of the session, replace the floating lids on top of the tanks, and leave until the next time.
They are the ultimate BW print processor for RC prints in the smaller darkroom - operating at ambient temperature.
3 slot configuration, ideal for all modern black and white processes (developer, stop, fixer)
There is a choice of two models:
10 x 8in. Dimensions L25 x W14 x H31cm, Capacity 900ml solutions per slot
16 x 12in.Dimensions L45 x W14 x H36cm, Capacity 1.8litres solution per slot
The benefits are that:
MIMINUM VOLUME OF CHEMISTRY - The V profile of the slots enables the minimum volume of solution to be used and yet maintain excellent print quality
MAXIMUM CHEMICAL LIFE - The narrow slot arrangement ensures there is minimal oxidisation or evaporation so chemicals will keep in the unit for weeks at a time -
USAGE BASED RELENISHMENT - Replenishment rate 10cc of working strength solution per 10x8 print i.e. 50cc per 5 prints, or equivalent print area
VIEWING OF PROGRESS - The magic of development is retained by the use of tried and tested Nova acrylic clear sided textured panels to form each slot
CONSISTENT AGITATION - Use of the Nova Clip when attached to the print ensures even and consistent agitiation - the textured processor walls prevents print adhesion
MAXIMUM PRODUCTIVITY - The Nova Clip ensures easy transfer between slots and ultimately the Nova Rapidwasher if employed - allowing high volumes of prints to be produced
The Monochrome makes your darkroom compact, efficient and always ready for work!
