Statim 2000 Classic PM Checklist with Bio-Filter

Statim 2000 Classic PM Checklist (w Bio-Filter)

Sometimes, preventative maintenance that spans over a long period of time can be a hassle to take care of. Sometimes a guide never hurts, just something to keep around that says what you need when you need it. And that’s what we’d like to offer you today. This is the first in a series of blogs we’re making to tell you how and what you’ll need for the preventative maintenance periods of your autoclave. Every autoclave may have similar or differing times completely, as well as different parts tailored to a different process. So we’d like to help you with these guides we thought up for you. We’d like to give you a checklist of everything you’ll need to do to conduct preventative maintenance on your Statim 2000 Classic autoclave. However, this guide is for if your Statim has a biological filter. 

This checklist comes as a part of our Free Preventative Maintenance program. And if you have any questions our certified technicians are here to help. And you can give us a call at 704-966-1650, and hit option 3 for our Free Tech Support line. 

 

The Preventative Maintenance

Daily Maintenance 

The daily maintenance on your Statim 2000 Classic has to do with the waste bottle. The daily maintenance checklist requires you to:

  • Replace distilled water in reservoir as needed
  • Empty the waste bottle every time you refill the reservoir
  • For opthamalic use, drain water after each working day and refill at the start of the next workday
  • Clean door gasket with a micro fiber cloth/dishwashing soap and inspect for crease or tears
  • Wipe exterior of unit and surrounding area with Optim disinfecting wipes or liquids 

The SciCan Waste Bottle is available here.

Optims various disinfecting wipes can be found here. 

Optim one-step disinfection liquids can be found here. 

Weekly Maintenance 

The weekly maintenance revolves around cleaning the chamber of your autoclave with specialized cleaning solutions. Namely, Stat-Dri spray and Opticlave autoclave cleaner. The weekly maintenance says you should: 

  • Wash the interior of the cassette with dishwashing soap or a mild detergent that does not contain chlorine
  • Scrub the the inside of cassette with a cleaning pad designed for use with Teflon coated surfaces
  • Clean water reservoir filter. For non-opthamalic use, drain reservoir at end of the work week
  • Use Opticlave to clean the water reservoir at the end of each work week
  • Apply a new coating of Stat-Dri to the inside surface of the cassette

Stat-Dri Spray is available here. 

Opticlave is also available here. 

Every 6 Months or Every 500 Cycles

 Maintenance that occurs every 6 months or every 500 cycles consists of checking and replacing the cassette seal and the two filters if need be. Every 6 months, you are recommended to: 

  • Replace cassette seal every 500 cycles or six months (whichever comes first)
  • Replace biological filter every 500 cycles or six months (whichever comes first)
  • Replace air compressor filter every 500 cycles or six months (whichever comes first)
