TECHNICAL DESCRIPTION 

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

 

The Velopex "Sprint" X-Ray Processor is a machine for developing and fixing dental 

x-ray films without user contact between insertion of the exposed film and receipt 
of the developed film into the wash-tank for collection at the end of the process. 

 

The machine receives undeveloped film in a light-tight enclosed area, visible 
through its protective red perspex flap, where a motor-driven “module" carries it 

between two continuous belts through a tank containing Developer. The film is 
passed out into an identical "module" working in a second tank, containing Fixer. 

 

Chemical temperature is maintained at 27°C, (81°F), by two rod heaters protruding 

from the rear wall of the machine, heating each chemical tank through a metal 
sleeve. 

 

The film finally passes into a water Wash Tank after processing. It is retrieved by 
removing the film from the collector tank. 

 

The overall dimensions of the processor are:- width 380mm (15 inches), with 
water tank fitted; height 450mm (17

¾

 inches); depth 230mm (9 inches). 

 

The weight of the processor is: empty, 6.85 kg (15 Ib); full, 10.25 kg (22½ Ib). 
This machine is a CLASS I device. 

 

ENVIRONMENTAL CONDITIONS FOR TRANSPORT AND STORAGE 

This machine should be kept within the temperature range -10

°

C and +40

°
