| Action | The firm initiated the recall by letter on January 21, 2020. The "Product Notification", identified the Field Correction and instructed the customer to use the kit to direct fluid safety away from the conveyor electrical parts to address this potential hazard. During the next service visit, this kit will be installed by your Sysmex Field Service Engineer.
The Notification also instructs the customer to:
1. Ensure that the surface of the sample, in the two, is more than away from the opening of the two.
2. Do not store samples on or above the analyzer.
3. if the sample transport conveyor unexpectedly stop, freezes, or jams, immediately remove all samples racks from the conveyor, before reinitializing or resetting analyzer or conveyor.
4. In the event of a sample spill on the conveyor, turn off the power to the equipment immediately and clean up any visible spills. If a spill occurs prior to the installation of the spill countermeasure kit, contact the Sysmex Technical Assistance Center (TAC). A Sysmex representative can explain how to properly clean the spill or will dispatch a Field Service Engineer.
5. Please distribute this Product Notification as appropriate to your laboratory staff.
6. File this Product Notification as a part of your laboratory's Quality System as required.
