An ad for the Jobo expert tank #3010 says "requires Jobo lift". True? Why?

Very heavy when full of chemistry, I don't think you can pour chemistry into Jobo drums from the top....I'll check that before saying conclusively. Some people have used rubber hoses to fill the drums sideways. Getting the drum off the processors without a lift could be toil some. -- LF Website @ http://members.verizon.net/~gregoryblank "To announce that there must be no criticism of the President, or that we are to stand by the President, right or wrong, is not only unpatriotic and servile, but is morally treasonable to the American public."--Theodore Roosevelt, May 7, 1918 |

The large diameter means it couldn't be used with a magnet in the way the other drum systems can because the expert drum's centre is way above the CPx's motor axis. Hence, the only sell it with the lid for the lift where it is connected to the upper outlet. Other than that, I suppose is you'd be getting awful streaks if you poured the chemicals into the tank while it wasn't rotating. Ralf -- Ralf R.

They can be filled upright and the liquid will stay in the lid and only enter the rest of the tank once it is turned on its side. To this end, the hole in the middle of the funnel inside the lid (that usually connects to the centre tube in film tanks) is closed by a plug. This only works because of the much smaller quantity of liquid required for paper processing. Ralf -- Ralf R.
