Description

Ilford Ilfotec DD Film Developer 5L

It is specifically designed for use where large quantities of film are processed. Such as in replenished dip and dunk processing systems. It can also be used in deep tanks and continuous long leader processors. You will need to make some adjustments to development times and operating temperatures.

Ilford recommends that it should be used in conjunction with Ilfotec DD Starter for machine processing. For some applications, a working strength solution can be used as a developer without using a starter.

How To Use

As it is a concentrate, you dilute it to make a working solution. To prepare a working strength replenisher, dilute Ilford Ilfotec DD concentrate 1+4. That means one part developer to four parts water. This solution can be used as a developer but some adjustment to the recommended development times is required. To make working strength Ilfotec DD developer add Ilfotec DD Starter to the working strength replenisher, at a ratio of 1+250. So 4ml of starter per litre of the developer. Make sure you mix together thoroughly before use.
