Reason for Recall
The water level sensor switch in the Medical Device Cleaning and High Level Disinfection Systems (Washer/Pasteurizers) is sensitive to externally induced vibration noise, and it produces a false signal that the water level in the tank is full while it is only 75% full. It could present a health risk of biological hazard because the medical devices are not being adequately cleaned or pasteurized
Action Details
On June 7, 2010, firm, CENORIN, sent "URGENT: MEDICAL DEVICE RECALL" Initial Notification letter with Recall Response Form, Series 500 Water Level Check Instructions, and the Water Level Switch Upgrade Kit Instruction (service kit P/N # 082395-00) to their consignees. The firm also sent these documents in Spanish language to their foreign consignees.
The letter describes the recall product as HLD Systems Medical Device Cleaning and High Level Disinfection Series 500 Washer/Pasteurizer-Model 540, Model 540HT and Model 520. Customers are advised to call the Customer Service at 1-800-426-1402 or e-mail the firm.
The Initial Notification letter instructs consignees to conduct and quarantine the recall products and notify their sub-accounts (customers) if products have been further distributed.
While waiting for a replacement kit, the consignees are asked to follow the Series 500 Water Level Check Instructions to perform a test to ensure the water tank is completely filled up the expected water level. The firm also advised the consignees to add a cautionary label on the product to avoid any sharp or bump impact that may create any externally induced vibration noise to the device.
The firm is developing a replacement kit that should be ready to send out to their consignees by June 30, 2010. A response card would be also sent out with a new kit, and it is used to verify that the kit has been successfully implemented.
