Jobo Ro-Tank 4323

[Iga]

Anybody here using Jobo Ro-Tank 4323 ? Got one recently, without reels, now looking for information..

[Ulophot]

Yes, I still have mine. What would you like to know?

Hi ! What kind of reels you are using with it ? Did you try modern Jobo or other brand reels ?
It says 950ml of chemicals - looks as too much for rotary developing ...
Thanks,

My reels came with the tank, all bought new decades ago. The say No. 2021 and have clear insert ends connected by gray spools. Each holds 6 sheets. I have never owned or tried other reels in it. It has given me excellent results.

I use 40 oz. of chemistry for a full load. I don't know why I added to what would be about 32; either I miscalculated the conversion or found more needed, perhaps due to the relatively quick speed of my Cibachrome roller base, which is not adjustable. I have tried smaller amounts successfully with sheets loaded only in the other slots, but since I got a Stearman 445 a few years ago, I keep the Jobo for more than 8 sheets at a time.

Are these the (slightly) elliptical reels, rather than the later round ones that go into the 2XXX series drums?

I think I have some somewhere…

Hi ! If you do not use them - drop me a line in PM. I am very interested

[Lachlan 717]

Will do.

I’m away from home at the moment (we have bushfires here in Australia at the moment and I’m working at these)…

Maybe Monday?

Yes, slightly elliptical.
