Recalls (10)
Beckman Coulter is initiating a field action because some Ultrasonic Transducer Kits were potentially assembled with incorrect mounting screws.
The recall was initiated because Beckman Coulter has confirmed that the current sample syringe pump drive assemblies installed on DxC Integrated ystem with UniCel Closted Tube Aliquotter (UCTA) serial numbers between 547 and 574 may cause a hardware motion error (ID0x08000501).
The recall was initiated because Beckman Coulter has confirmed that the UniCel Dxl and DxC Access Immunoassay Systems had field modifications to the aspirate and dispense probe assemblies.
The hose clamps in the DxC (with serial numbers less than 3412, labeled behind the lower right side instrument door) hydropneumatic system are sharp and pose a possible risk of injury. An operator could be cut by the hose clamps, which could in turn result in increased exposure to any waste products (biohazards) that might be present on the assembly.
This recall was initiated because Beckman Coulter has confirmed that for User-Defined Chemistries (UDRs), the polychrome correction is not automatically updated when wavelengths are modified.
This recall was initiated because Beckman Coulter has received reports of erroneous test results being reported as a result of assay reagent packs being transferred between systems. Erroneous results will be generated as a result of missing or incorrect assay reagents. In these cases both false positive and false negative results are possible, depending upon the assay configuration.
The recall was initiated because Cartridge Glucose (GLU) on UniCel DxC and Synchron LX instruments may give falsely high results for moderately hemolysed samples. The Impact: (1) Neonatal samples drawn by lancets are more likely to be hemolysed to a degree sufficient to cause interference with glucose estimation and are a special at-risk population, (2) Other hemolysed samples may be similar
Excessive Buildup of protein, bacteria and sample tube additives in the ISE flow cell may cause erroneous NA (sodium) results.
This recall was initiated because of software issue was identified in System Software 4.2 and 4.2.1, which may result in the incorrect handling of a wash arm dispense plate motion failure. Instead of generating a red warning event and stopping sample processing, the system will post a yellow caution event and continue to operate with the dispense plate in an elevated position until the instrument
The recall was initiated after Beckman Coulter confirmed reports of a new premature failure of the upper aspirate peristaltic pump in the systems listed above. Premature failure of the pump may negatively affect precision. The failure is limited to those UniCel DXI 800, DXI 600, and DxC 880i systems which have a pump identified with one of the new pump manufacturing numbers (Mfg. Nos.) listed ab
