    Statim 5000 and the cassette handle. 4.3 Statim 5000 — STAT-DRI Plates The Statim 5000 cassette uses STAT-DRI plates to enhance the drying process for wrapped instruments. The adjustable plates are designed for the unwrapped instruments rack and eliminate the need for a separate wrapped instrument rack.
  • Page 14 The wrapped instrument rack for the Statim 5000 is designed to hold a maximum of 12 autoclave bags. Care must be taken to ensure that the combined weight of the loaded bags does not exceed 1.5 kg (3.3 lbs).

  • Page 15: Using Biological/Chemical Indicators

    In addition, the weekly use of biological indicators, which allow you to ascertain whether the instruments have been exposed to sterilization conditions, is recommended. For Statim 5000 units in the United States, SciCan recommends using the 3M Attest™ biological monitoring system for routine monitoring.
  • Page 16 4. If the results do not change, do not process any more instruments within the Statim and contact your SciCan dealer for further assistance. Because the turnaround time for the 3M Attest™ is up to 48 hours, it is recommended that the tests be conducted so that the incubation period occurs during a period of planned downtime such a the last cycle before a weekend.
