Calibration Procedure 8:
for non-S G4 units with Rev. 7.x Board,
Software Rev. 7.xx, Sl 00R1.xx
This calibration procedure is for STATIM 2000/5000 G4 non S units with revision 7.x controller
boards and revision 7.xx software, SL00R1.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.
• Do not place the digital reference thermometer in direct sunlight, on the armature or on any
other hot surfaces. This may cause improper values on the temperature readout.
• There are specific error messages (cycle faults) for these board types. These can be found in
the Troubleshooting Cycle Faults section.
• Boiler calibration is not required as these units are fitted with a separate validation
thermocouple.
• These units may be calibrated with the cover in place OR using the control box.
• There is NO reference voltage adjustment in these machines.
Calibration Procedure
Calibration of these boards should be done in the following order:
1. Chamber thermocouple calibration
2. Validation thermocouple calibration (automatic)
NOTE
: Use of control box is optional. Calibration can be completed using touchscreen.
Required equipment:
• Digital voltmeter
• Calibration cassette (appropriate to model)
• Digital thermometer
Setting up the unit for calibration:
1. Before starting calibration, turn the STAT
IM OFF.
2. The cover MAY be removed and the control box attached if deemed appropriate, but the unit
can be calibrated with the cover on as all adjustments to the calibration offsets are undertaken
using the touchscreen.
3. Check that there is sufficient steam process distilled water in the reservoir, and that the
calibration cassette is correctly engaged in the STAT
IM.
4. Install the thermocouple into the cassette and attach the digital thermometer.
5. Ensure that the thermocouple and digital thermometer have matched serial numbers.
6. Turn ON the unit and access the service menu in the following manner:
