Upon receipt of this generator at the sfmd quality assurance laboratory, this device was thoroughly analyzed.The service department was able to confirm error codes 265 (pressure value below 250 mmhg during vapor generation) and 480 (readings from one of the three analog temp sensors and the pressure sensor are zero or negative) from the event logs.An electrical fault was determined.Also, the display screen was identified to be flickering.The load cell, mcu (master control board), sensor/relay harness and the display cables were replaced, resolving the issue.The generator received all required updates as per upgrade checklist 3401.1802-004rcheck.It passed full functional and electrical safety testing.Based on all available information, the most probable cause was determined to be cause traced to component failure.It is likely that an electrical failure caused or contributed to the reported allegations.
