Why the product was recalled
Due to the lack of updated thermal components, these instruments may be more susceptible to the internal case temperature exceeding the 18 to 36 degrees Celsius operating range, causing SYS flags. The instrument will not report results until the internal case temperature returns to the operating range. This situation may cause a delay in the reporting of patient results.
