RU-4 Electrolytic Silver Recovery Unit

All Waste Matters are pleased to introduce the RU-4 Electrolytic Silver Recovery Unit.

This Silver recovery machine is intended for use with x-ray (both medical and industrial), graphic arts and black & white film processors.

With its small footprint and a silver recovery capacity of 20 litres of waste chemistry in a 24 hour period, we would recommend this unit for use by low end users such as Private Hospitals and Veterinary surgeries. Those producing larger quantities of waste chemistry may want to consider our ARU-700 and ARU-2100 series silver recovery equipment.

Just some of the silver recovery features include: State of the art digital microprocessor controls, digital display, and keypad for easy calibration and information storage. Automatic control and optimization of plating current as the silver concentration varies in the fixer solution.

• Digital microprocessor calculates Amp-hours
  (plating activity) from the last cathode
  desilvering
• Units automatically revert to 'stand-by' mode
  preventing sulfiding during slow production
  periods
• Flashing 'error' message appears if the unit is
  not plating silver
• Optional current ring tracks fixer replenisher
  usage
• All units feature liquid tight Teflon® sealed
  drive shaft bearing assemblies
