NOVA slotprocessor leakage

[BBonte]

I have 2 NOVA slot processor monochrome for B W paper. One of them is leaking from the fixer slot. Used some epoxy provided by NOVA Darkroom without success. Sent it back to UK ? Other suggestions ?

Dear BBonte,

RTV Silicone is a nice all purpose sealer.

If it's crowded for space you are then try single tray
processing. I use more than usual dilution chemistry,
one-shot. Re-use or one-shot the method is similar
to rotory processing. You'll value seeing
the prints come up. Dan

I would contact Nova again by telephone. They are usually very helpful and may be able to offer further advice.

You can see prints "come up" in a Nova Slot processer, that's one of the reasons for using one over a rotary processer.

I thought they might have to
be withdrawn. Dan

They do, but that's part of the processing routine. You can lift the print up at anytime to inspect progress.
