Description

Reason

The Phantom Portable X-Ray System Stand may have a suspect weld supporting the bracket holding the locking cylinder assembly. It the weld fails, the tubehead arm assembly could fall and contact the patient or operator.

Action

If the weld fails, the tubehead arm assembly could potentially fall and contact the patient or operator. The accounts were requested to locate the affected systems and take them out of service until they are inspected and, if needed, repaired.
