Reduces Instrument Investment
STATIM sterilizes handpieces and instruments for immediate use in as little as 8 minutes, reducing the number required as instruments can be processed ‘just in time’ or between patients.
Fast point-of-use sterilization makes turnaround a priority, increasing efficiency and virtually eliminates instrument bottlenecks.
Our state-of-the-art steam technology is gentle on both solid and hollow instruments.
Immediate Steam Generation
Unlike conventional autoclaves that need to heat an entire reservoir of water, STATIM uses only a small, specific amount of water required for each cycle. Water is introduced into a heating device referred to as a ‘steam generator’, rapidly heated and converted to steam in mere seconds.
Using PPPD technology and our patented steam injection process – air is automatically forced out of the sterilization chamber.
The thin stainless steel walls of STATIM’s fully-removable cassette, (or sterilization chamber) allow for rapid heating and cooling of the chamber. As a result, STATIM meets the conditions for sterilization and drying in a fraction of the time required by a conventional autoclave.
The STATIM 2000 and 5000 have each been designed to provide you with a complete solution: rapid sterilization balanced by rapid drying. Introducing STATIM Dri-Tec drying technology.
A large 3.5” high-resolution touchscreen offers a vivid display of messages, current cycle information and customizable colours all with extraordinary clarity. Fully adjustable contrast levels let you optimize the screen to the lighting in your steri-centre.
Through your networked portal, you can vie not only your STATIMs current operations in real time, you can also access cycle history, printing and validation information, and also sterilization records. Capable of sending emails with cycle information errors directly to your dealer, your STATIM G4 will let qualified technicians know when service is imminent.
Patient safety relies on attention to detail. The STATIM G4 supports verifiable processes that are PIN protected with user-defined IDs so that staff members can be required to authorize a cycle. This encourages extra attention to process and creates a safer environment for both staff and patients.
An undocumented sterilization cycle might as well not have been performed. With each cycle, information must be stored to protect your office and your patient. The integrated DataLogger stores all cycle information for the lifetime of the unit, which is accessible through multiple channels such as: a USB port for manual retrieval; an Ethernet connection for web based archiving or desktop printing; or a RS232 port for an external printer option.

Press on the icon to confirm whether it is a water level problem or a water quality problem.
If it is a water quality problem, you have likely used water which is not steam-process distilled or is improperly distilled.
If the level of the water in the reservoir is low, refill the reservoir.
Filling the Water Reservoir
When filling the reservoir, ensure you only use steam processed distilled water containing less than 5ppm total dissolved solids (having conductivity of less then 10µS/cm). The impurities and additives in other water sources will cause an error reading on the LCD. To fill the reservoir, follow the steps below:
Empty the reservoir and refill with steam-process distilled water containing less than 5 ppm total dissolved solids (having conductivity of less than 10 μS / cm).
If you have the water conductivity meter, check the quality of the water before refilling the reservoir.
To empty the reservoir follow these steps:
Action
An X over the connectivity icon means the unit is not connected to a network. If it is supposed to be connected to a network and the X is visible, it is because the unit is unable to acquire an IP address.
To resolve the issue, try the following:
Renew the IP address by following these steps:
Once a day.
Once a day.
Once per week on a cold, empty chamber.
Yes, no residual water must be left in the unit overnight.
Hollow, solid and air retentive instruments can be put through on this cycle.
Yes, this requires the purchase of a double chamber syphon and can be fitted by a Henry Schein Dental engineer.
This is down to the practice requirements, but typically many practices will download once per week.
Consult the manufacturer of your autoclave as they will inform you if this is required. HTM 01-05 states that this should still be completed. If you obtain no advice from the manufacturer then follow the HTM 01-05 guidance.
Keeping the STATIM cassette clean is good clinical practice and assists in the proper functioning of the unit. SciCan recommends that the interior surface be cleaned at least once a week. Cleaning the inside of your cassette is very important if you regularly sterilise lubricated instruments.
Coating the entire inside surface with STAT-DRI Plus drying agent induces water to form an even coat on the inside surface, without beading. The water in contact with the hot cassette surfaces also evaporates much more efficiently. Spotting is minimised and instruments dry much better. STAT-DRI Plus should be applied every 10 cycles and after every cassette cleaning.
This water reservoir filter should be cleaned at least once a week or when required.
The filter can easily be removed and cleaned by placing the filter upside down under running water to wash away the particles until clean and then placed back into the reservoir opening.
Check the reservoir for dirt or particles. The reservoir may be cleaned by draining followed by cleaning and rinsing with steam process distilled water ONLY. Use of chemicals or cleaning agents is not recommended and could damage the unit.
Use a soft cloth moistened with soap and water to clean all exterior surfaces.
Do not use harsh cleaning chemicals or disinfectants.
The filter should be replaced every six months or after 500 cycles in order to maintain an adequate supply of clean air
during the air drying cycle.
To change the filter, follow these steps:
The filters should be replaced every six months or after 500 cycles to maintain an adequate supply of clean air during the air drying cycle.
To change the bacteria retentive air filter on the STATIM 2000 G4 follow these steps:
To ensure optimum performance of your STATIM cassette autoclave, change the cassette seal every 500 cycles or every six months, whichever comes first.
To change the cassette seal, follow these steps:
Place the cassette lid and the new seal on a clean work surface. Examine the position of the old seal in the cassette lid and arrange the new seal in the same orientation, next to the lid.
Remove the old seal and discard. Clean any residue out of the seal channel and flush out the channel with distilled water.
Lubricate the new seal with the liquid seal lubricant provided.
Insert the rounded edge of the seal under the round lip of the lid. Align the holes in the new seal with the holes in the lid.
At every corner and at the holes in the lid, two square nibs should be visible. The nibs should fit flush with the lid’s outer surface.
Ensure the seal is completely inserted. Feel around the periphery to ensure the seal is securely in place.
During a cycle, steam may appear between the lid and the tray. If this persists, remove the cassette and check that the seal is correctly installed.
The metal parts will be hot and the cassette may contain hot steam.
It is recommended to use a funnel to minimise spills. Each time you refill the reservoir, empty the waste bottle and refill with water to the MIN line. Empty the waste bottle often to avoid unpleasant odours and discolouration of the contents. A low-level chlorine-free disinfectant, prepared according to the manufacturer’s instructions, may be added to the waste bottle to remedy this situation.
To ensure trouble-free performance, both the operator and the dealer must follow a preventative maintenance schedule.
Please refer to your National, Regional or Safety laws for any additional reoccurring user testing that may be required.
