Care and Maintenance of the Statim Cassette
Use a non-chloride cleanser (i.e. Cameo, Zud or Bar Keepers Friend) and a green scratch pad. At
least once a week clean the inside of the lid of the cassette and the inside of the tray and the
outside edge of the lower tray. Two or three times a week take some liquid hand soap (not anti-
bacterial) and lubricate all exposed surfaces of the seal, to keep it soft and supple. After cleaning,
rinse and dry, then apply a liberal amount of Stat Dri to the inside metal surfaces. This SciCan
product helps the water dry inside the cassette in less than one minute once the cassette is
removed from the machine. Clean the outside surface of the Statim with a mild soap and water.
The seal in the cassettes will last approximately 800 cycles and if maintained properly could last
longer.
