Description

ACCELERATOR APS System Input/Output Module (IOM); List Number: 7L01-01; manufactured by Inpecco SpA, Segrate (MI), Italy.

Reason

When an ARCHITECT c16000 System is connected to an ACCELERATOR APS System, the software on the ACCELERATOR APS System may not generate an error warning when a Sample Presentation/Sample Queue error occurs, which could result in contamination of subsequent samples.

Action

Abbott Laboratories notified Customers of the affected device via a "Product Correction" letter dated October 27, 2008. Consignees provided with a temporary work around until a service representative upgrades the system software. For further information, contact your local Abbott Laboratories, Inc. service representative.
