Our healthcare organization has 20 ge healthcare cscs v2 central information centers that were all purchased in the spring of 2017 and installed on "7/21." over the past 6 months 5 of the 20 cic's power supplies have failed.When the power supply fails the cic shuts down and is no longer useable until the power supply and power entry module fuses are replaced.Once the power supply has been removed and inspected we have noticed the same large capacitor lead has burned a hole through the circuit board.During the power supply failure our telemetry technicians have noted a pungent smoke smell, hear a popping sparking sound and claim there were no messages on the cic's monitor displaying of any type of error/warning message.It's simply working one second and off the next second.Fda safety report id # (b)(4).
