The customer¿s report of a tubing bulge at the top of the silicone pump segment was confirmed.Visual inspection observed that the bulge in the silicone segment was directly underneath the upper fitment.Further visual inspection under magnification found the walls of the silicone tubing segment to be concentric.The device history record for set model 2420-0007 lot 20033326 shows the set was manufactured on 17mar2020 with a total of (b)(4) units.There were no quality notifications issued during the production build of this set.Previously investigated complaints for this same failure mode determined that the ballooning is caused by excess pressure within the silicone tubing segment.The root cause for the source of the excessive pressure is unknown.
