Qn#(b)(4).The sample was returned for evaluation.A visual exam was performed and there were no defects observed.Functional testing was performed and the unit was connected to 120vac.The unit did not pass the initial power connect test.Both the red and yellow triangles lit up but they did not turn off.The unit was opened and the power supply board was replaced with a known good power supply board.This time the unit passed initial power connect test with no issues.The unit also navigated through the power-on self-test (p.O.S.T.) with no issues.During the temperature display accuracy test the unit displayed the correct temperatures and properly alarmed in the high temperature scenario.The complaint has been confirmed.The investigation revealed a defective power supply board.Since the neptunes are 100% functionally tested during manufacturing assembly, it is unlikely that the failure was present at the time of release.A device history record review was performed with no evidence to suggest a manufacturing related issue.The unit was manufactured in 2008 and was designed for a minimum of 5 years.Teleflex will continue to monitor and trend on complaints of this nature.
