Qn #(b)(4).The customer returned one conchasmart column (product code 382-10).No other circuit components were returned.Upon receipt the unit was visually inspected for outward, visible signs of misuse/abuse/neglect.Nothing was noted in terms of physical damage.It was observed that the upper flow tube was returned clamped.The unit was prepared for a full functional bench test in an attempt to replicate the reported defect.A known good lab inventory concha neptune 425-00, a water reservoir bottle, the remaining components of an adult breathing circuit (880-36kit), airflow, and dual temperature probes were used with the returned column.The unit successfully navigated all pre-operational self-tests with the returned column and was functioning in real time.The settings were set to full rainout, invasive, at 37 degrees c.The circuit functioned without any interruption and was able to heat up to the set temperature of 37 degrees c.Water was observed to be flowing through the column in real time while the circuit was functioning.There was no "low water" alarm observed.After functional testing, adequate water supply was confirmed as there was water removed from the column.The complaint cannot be confirmed.Functional testing did not reveal any operational anomalies.Teleflex will continue to monitor and trend on complaints of this nature.
