Reason

Abbott has identified an issue with the Alinity i Gear Pump Assembly (part number A 30108552 01) resulting in foaming/bubbling out of the bottle reservoir for Concentrated Wash Buffer and an unexpected amount of dried residue of buffer. The foaming/bubbling is a result of an improper calibration of the pump s operating speed.
