Received a series of photos showing the packaging information and the 142540489 primary plum set.The outlet filter vent on the 0.2 micron filter was indicated as the area of leakage.There was no leakage observed.The reported complaint of leakage could not be confirmed from the photo provided.Without the return of the used sample a comprehensive failure investigation cannot be performed, and a cause cannot be determined.The device history review (dhr) for lot 13684576 was reviewed and no nonconformities were found that would have led to the reported complaint.
