A field service engineer was dispatched to assess the sterrad® 100nx unit.The oil mist filter was adjusted to resolve the smoke/haze issue.Unit meets specifications and was returned to service.H3: asp investigation summary: the investigation included a review of the device history record (dhr), trending analysis of the smoke/haze issue, and system risk analysis (sra).Trending analysis of the smoke/haze issue for the sterrad® 100nx unit was reviewed for the prior six months from the event date and no significant trend was observed.Review of risk documentation shows the risk for exposure to toxic or corrosive material to be "low." no parts were replaced in resolving this issue; therefore, no parts were available for further analysis.The assignable cause of the smoke/haze is likely due to the oil mist filter.The field service engineer adjusted the part and confirmed the sterrad® 100nx was restored to proper function after service.The issue was resolved.Asp will continue to track and trend this issue.Asp complaint ref #: (b)(4).
