Reason

The backup oxygen supply control valve on the oxygen concentrator could fail resulting in it sticking in the open or closed positions.

Action

Cobham Life Support Systems, Inc. issued letters to their two customers via e-mail. One customer letter was dated July 24, 2009 and the other was dated July 28, 2009. Both letters notified the customer of the reason for the recall and that the usage of the concentrator must be restricted to exclude actual use with a patient until corrected. The letter informs customers they are redesigning the backup supply control valve and will coordinate the retrofit in the future.
