*
These rates have been rounded to the nearest usable increment.
†
This wash overflows from tank 17 into tank 14.
Bleach Regeneration
Regeneration of used EA-5 Bleach will reduce processing
solution costs and substantially reduce the amount of bleach
discarded to the sewer. Collection and treatment tanks for
bleach overflow solution and chemical testing capability are
required. A detailed laboratory procedure is available from
Eastman Kodak Company.
REWIND PROCESSING
Note: This is not a primary recommendation.
KODAK AEROCHROME III MS Film 2427 yields
optimum results with modern, high-temperature,
continuous-processing machines. It can be processed in
rewind equipment, although this method is not a primary
processing recommendation. Eastman Kodak Company no
longer offers packaged chemicals for such processing.
Customers wishing to use rewind equipment such as the
Gordon/Morse M-10 Developing Outfit (Military
Designator: B-5) may contact Aerial Imaging for
information on exposure, processing chemicals, process
cycles, and general recommendations.
