PROCESSING LIQUID REPLENISHING SYSTEM

摘要

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a processing liquid replenishing system which enables an operator to exchange a replenishing container with a degree of freedom in time and informs the operator of a request for exchanging the replenishing container to urge the exchange of the replenishing container at the timing to exchange the replenishing container. SOLUTION: This processing liquid replenishing system has the replenishing container (50) which is capable of changing the capacity to house the processing liquid replenished in the processing tank where photosensitive materials are subjected to development processing, a replenishing flow passage (60) for connecting the replenishing container and the processing tank and a replenishing pump (61) disposed in this replenishing flow passage. A hermetic storage container (40) which is capable of storing the processing liquid is disposed between the replenishing container (50) and the replenishing pump (61). The system is provided with reporting means (88) for reporting the request for the exchange of the replenishing container when the timing to exchange the replenishing container (50) comes.
