Additional Manufacturer Narrative
Device evaluation the ams700 ipp cylinders were visually inspected and functionally tested.Cylinder 1 performed with specification; no leak was found.Cylinder 2 has a large leak in the input tube sleeve which connecting to the cylinder.A large hole was present.This hole/damage was the result of sharp instrument damage.The ams 700 momentary squeeze (ms) pump was visually inspected; no leaks were found.The pump was functionally tested and failed the 8lb.Activation test.The pump therefore required more than 8lbs.Of force to activate.Product analysis confirmed fluid leak in the connection of the pump to the cylinder.Product analysis therefore identified a pump failed activation as the most probable cause of the mechanical issue.
