Statim Autoclave

Your Statim Autoclave seems to be going well when suddenly the alarm goes off and you are getting error Code 25: Thermal Fuse.

If you are thinking there goes another $300.00 (and that is the going rate - plus parts & shipping both ways), you are in for a pleasant surprise. Repairing the problem is not as difficult as you may think, and the replacement part is less than $16.00.

You need only one tool to confirm that the problem is really the Thermal Fuse: A cheap Volt/Ohm Meter. if you don't already own one, you can get one for around $10 from Wal-Mart or Lowes. And it doesn't make any difference whether it is analog or digital.

Thermal fuses are like any other fuses. They get stressed by the load, or a power surge, or just weaken over time and eventually give out. A filament breaks: and there is no longer a path for the electricity to get from one point to the other. Since the path is broken, the component cannot get power and therefore doesn't work.

The meter simply determines whether or not the electrical path is there.

After checking for continuity, and confirming the Thermal Fuse is the Problem you are ready to make the repair. The repair is pretty straightforward and in reality consists of nothing more than replacing the fuse.

The only tools you will need to complete the repair are: (One) Phillips Head Screwdriver, (One) Small Slotted Screwdriver; (One) 3/8" Open-End Wrench; and (Two) 7/16 Open-End Wrenches.

Under the cover, the inside of the Statim is very interesting. There is a Steam Generator (the Boiler), a Compressor, a PC Board and a Water Pump. In replacing the thermal fuse you will be working with the Boiler and the PC Board.

The Thermal Fuse is located under the Boiler and is contained inside the white insulation you see snaking under it. You will need to disconnect some of the lines going to the boiler (but not all of them) and the screwdriver is needed to remove the mounting bracket.

The only thing you will be doing with the PC Board is simply unplugging the wire leading from the old fuse and replacing it with the wire from the new one when you are ready to. There are a few things you have to be careful of, and we cover them in detail in the link below.

If you do the repair yourself, you benefit in a couple of ways. Not only will you save $300.00, you will also remove the mystery & gain a better knowledge of your Statim.
