    What to do if film is not dry after using Air Techniques Medical Equipment?
    • B
      Brandon SmithAug 25, 2025
      If the film from your Air Techniques Medical Equipment is not drying properly, there are several potential causes: * The film being used may be improper or outdated. Check the date on the film box and ensure it's recommended for automatic processing. * The chemistry may be depleted. Change the chemistry after processing 300-350 films or every 2 weeks, whichever comes first. * The chemistry may be contaminated. Dispose of the chemistry and clean the equipment with Formula 2000 Plus. Then, replace the chemistry and water. * Ensure you are using the specially formulated Peri-Pro chemistry to maintain film and archival quality. If these steps don't resolve the issue, it could be related to defective components, requiring assistance from authorized dealers.

      Ariel WalkerAug 26, 2025
      If your Air Techniques Medical Equipment is producing film that is too dark or grainy, here's what you can do: * Make sure the film hasn't been exposed to light by checking for light leaks in the darkroom or daylight loader. Ensure the inlet cover is in place before leaving the darkroom or removing hands from the daylight loader cuffs. * Use Peri-Pro chemistry to ensure film quality and archival quality. If these steps don't resolve the issue, it could be related to developer temperature or X-ray machine settings, requiring assistance from authorized dealers.

    • J
      Jeffery ParkerAug 27, 2025
      If the film processed by your Air Techniques Medical Equipment appears cloudy or has a brownish surface, consider the following: * The fixer may be exhausted. Change the chemistry after processing 300-350 films or every 2 weeks, whichever comes first. * The fixer temperature may be too low. Wait until the ready light stays on continuously, indicating that the set-point has been reached. * The film may be improper or outdated. Check the date on the film box and ensure that the film being used is recommended for automatic processing.
