This report is being filed to provide additional information in e.3, h.6 and h.10.Corrected information is provided in b.3.Root cause: specific root cause could not be definitively determined for this incident.Possible causes include: a clamp malfunction where the clamp skews to the side as it is closed, or the clamp does not fully occlude the tubing when closed due to interference between the clamp and the tube.Additional contributing factors could be related to user interface, where either the sample bag clamp was not closed at the system prompt or the clamp was closed but it was skewed on the tubing enabling a portion of the tubing to allow air to pass.
