STAT
IM 5000S Calibration
Calibration Procedure 5: for Rev 2.x or 5.x Boards,
Software R1.xx and R2.xx
For S-class STAT
IM 5000 (1995 - 2005) with revision 2.x or revision 5.x type controller boards
and software revisions R1.xx or R2.xx.
Important:
•
Incorrect or inaccurate calibration may cause unsuccessful sterilization of instruments.
•
Always calibrate the thermocouples after a thermocouple replacement, thermocouple bend
or disconnect, controller board replacement or microprocessor / eePRoM replacement,
steam generator replacement or probe bracket replacement.
•
Make sure that there is sufficient steam-process distilled water in the unit prior to starting
calibration.
•
S-Class units contain electronic components that may be damaged or destroyed by
electro-static discharge (eSD). observe appropriate safeguards when calibrating.
•
There are specific error messages (cycle faults) for these board/software types. These can
be found in the
Troubleshooting Cycle Faults
section.
•
In calibration mode, no error messages are displayed.
Calibration Procedure
Calibration of these boards should be done in the following order:
1. Reference voltage verification / adjustment
2. Steam generator thermocouple calibration (automatic)
3. Chamber thermocouple and pressure transducer calibration
4. Steam generator thermocouple re-calibration (automatic)
Required equipment:
• Control box - 01-103141S
• Digital voltmeter
• Calibration cassette (appropriate to model)
• Potentiometer trimmer
• Calibration jumper
• Digital thermometer
• Digital pressure meter
Setting up the unit for calibration:
1. Before starting calibration, turn the STAT
IM
oFF
and remove the cover.
2. Check that there is sufficient steam process distilled water in the reservoir, and that the
calibration cassette (6) is correctly engaged in the STAT
IM.
3. Install the thermocouple (7) into the cassette and attach the digital thermometer (8).
