9. Statim 2000 Trouble-shooting
Cycle Faults – Software Revision R1xx, R2xx, R4xx, R5xx and R6xx
36
Cycle Fault #26
Software Revision
R5xx and R6xx
The sterilization phase has failed to start within 3
minutes of the cassette reaching the sterilization
temperature.
CF26 is displayed when it occurred in three
consecutive cycles (Cycle interrupted is displayed for
the first two cycles). Cycle Fault 26 counter is reset
whenever a successful cycle is completed.
This may be caused by improper validation
thermocouple calibration, by a weak pump
delivery or by a faulty solenoid valve.
For PCB other than rev 7.xx also verify Vref to
be 2.520V± 0.001V.
Cycle Fault #27
The temperature of the steam generator failed to
drop bellow a set-point temperature (150°C or
165°C) in a timeout period
Several conditions may cause this: weak pump
delivery and/or out of water during a cycle,
restriction to the pump inlet tube or a defective
water quality sensor (sensor does not detect
insufficient water in the water reservoir) or a
contaminated steam generator.
Cycle Fault #72
Software Revision
R5xx only
There is a communication error between the
microprocessor and the Temperature Adapter Board
(TAB).
Check the connection between the square
microprocessor and the Printed Circuit Board
(PCB). If an adapter board is used check the
connection between the adapter board and the
PCB. Look for bent or broken pins. Verify that
Temperature Adapter PCB(TAB) is properly
inserted and secured on the main Statim PCB.
Cycle Fault #90
Software Revisions
R6xx only
Corrupted or not initialized chamber calibration value
This occurs when a new controller board or
microprocessor has been installed. This may
also happen when the unit has been subjected
to a strong static discharge corrupting the
memory. Calibrate chamber thermocouple.
Cycle Fault #91
N/A – S-class only.
