Description

Sedecal SP-HF 4.0 Portable X-Ray System; Manufactured by SEDECAL, C/Pelya 9 Pol. Ind. Rio De Janeiro, 28110 Algete (Madrid) Spain

Reason

A minimum source-skin-distance of less than 30 cm and not identifying the tube manufacturer on the tube housing label resulted in the SP-HF-4.0 Portable Systems not complying with the U.S. Federal performance standard.

Action

An 'Important Safety Notice' dated 10/27/03 was sent to the one direct account on the same date, informing them of the non-compliances with the performance standard and requesting them to call Sedecal at 800-920-9525 to arrange for the modification of the x-ray unit at no cost to the user.
