PA 350 N2

PA 350 N2 - WATER WASHABLE PHOTOPOLYMER PLATE MAKING EQUIPMENT

Technical Data
Plate size:
10” x 13.75” / 250 x 350 mm
System functions: 
Back and main exposure, washout, drying
Power supply:
220V –  1900W – single phase (12 Amp)
Pipe fittings: 
Cock with ball valve of 3/8 and 1

Features 

Exposure:
A black acrylic plate with vacuum grooves and a vacuum sheet perfectly hold the negative to the plate.  The drawer is provided with 6 lamps type TL 44 D 25W.  The microprocessor system keeps an internal memory of the lamps life to help determine when it’s time to replace them.

Washout:  The tank is provided with nylon brushes assembled on springs to have an even pressure on plates of various thicknesses.  A 600W heater to keep the water at a constant temperature is connected to a level indicator which prevents the heater from starting when the level is too low.  The washout platen, rotates alternatively in two directions to ensure an even washout of the plate, is provided, in the standard version, with a magnetic support to hold metal backed plates; upon request, it is possible to have a permanent adhesive for al other plates.

Programming:   The microprocessor-controlled keyboard allows the user to set up to nine customized programs to control the time of each function:  back exposure, main exposure, washout and drying.  For the last two functions it is also possible to set the temperature in °C.

Green/Red Warning LEDs constantly informing about the status of the machine – acoustic alarm in case of errors and/or malfunctions.
