Philips Allura Xper FD10 X-ray system recalled for missing coolant drip tray
What this means
Philips identified that some Allura Xper FD10 X-ray systems may be missing a drip tray beneath the cooling unit due to incomplete field repairs. If the tray is not in place, coolant can leak onto electrical components and cause short-circuits, potentially shutting down the system.
- Check if your system's serial number matches the recall list
- Verify the drip tray is installed beneath the cooling unit
- Contact Philips Medical Systems if you have questions or need assistance
The agency's original wording
Philips has identified that in a limited number of impacted systems the drip tray beneath the cooling unit was not installed under previous field corrections, or evidence of the implementation was not adequately documented. If it is not installed, there is a potential for coolant liquid to contact electrical components. This could lead to electrical short-circuits, which may trigger system fuses and result in system shutdown.
