Automatic Batch Electrolytic Silver Recovery Systems
For minilabs, professional and commercial labs, school photofinishers and X-Ray, the ML-27 treats all combinations of RA-4 and EP-2 bleach-fix, as well as C-41 and E-6 fixer. Wash-less stabilizers may also be de-silvered. This system can be plumbed directly to the processor fix/bleach-fix overflow lines, or silver-bearing chemicals may be easily added via an integral funnel assembly.
ML-27 units reduce silver content to approximately 100 ppm (mg/l). Tailed with a metallic cartridge, each unit can reduce silver content to less than 5.0 ppm (typically 2.0 ppm or less).
The SilvPAC® LM/BF-20™ stationary cathode silver recovery system is designed for professional and commercial labs. This innovative unit desilvers EZ bleach-fix (regenerated RA bleach-fix), NR type bleach-fix combined with low flow wash and overflow C-41 fixer. E-6 may also be added to the above processing solutions. The LM/BF-20 is ideal for large volume mini labs to desilver bleach-fix, washless paper stabilizer, fixer, and washless film stabilizer

METS-E-112 and METS-E-106 Pumping Stations
Our METS pumping stations are designed to pump silver bearing liquid through one or two metallic replacement cartridges. The metering pump controls the flow rate to ensure the maximum amount of silver is recovered. These units are ideal for minilabs, allowing them to meet tough environmental regulations for silver of 1 mg/L (1 ppm) or less when used with the BIG-MO steel wool cartridges. These units are easy to install as well as operate.
Features and Benefits
- Maintenance-free
- Quick installation
- Universal bleach-fix and fixer compatibility
- Maximum silver recovery performance
