Description

Beckman Coulter UniCel Dxl 800, Part numbers: 973100, A71456, A71457, A25288; Immunoassay Method, Troponin Subunit

Reason

Beckman Coulter has determined that, due to a potential communication issue, the analyzers listed above may not successfully restart following a standard shutdown, even after multiple attempts. If this issue occurs, the instrument will be unable to complete initialization and transition to Ready mode and the instrument will not process patient samples, QCs or calibrators. This causes delayed results.
