1.1 Replacing the Cassette Seal and O-Rings
To ensure optimum performance of the Statim 7000, the seal is equipped with an
electronic tag to ensure only authentic seals are used and also to provide the
user a LCD message to replace the seal after 1000 cycles. The seal and O-rings
should be changed every 1000 cycles or every 12 months.

STATIM 7000 Service Manual - Cassette

Replacement seals are available from SciCan (p/n 01-110295S Lid Seal).
When the cassette seal has undergone 1000 cycles, an early message on the
LCD will display SEAL LIFE WARNING - 100 CYCLES REMAINING, with a
warning beep. The seals should be changed immediately. After 1100 cycles, your
unit will stop operating and a message will be displayed SEAL LIFE EXPIRED,
REPLACE. Replacement seals are available from your SciCan dealer.
To change the cassette lid seal, follow these steps:
1. Place the cassette lid and the new seal on a clean work surface.
2. Examine the position of the old seal in the cassette lid and arrange the

3. Remove the old seal and discard.
4. Clean any residue out of the seal channel and flush out the channel with
distilled water.
5. Lubricate the new seal with the liquid seal lubricant provided.
6. Align the RFID tag in the new seal with the holes in the lid.
