Description

Steris Small Renaissance Eagle 3000 -- Remanufactured Gravity Models 3011 and 3021 and Prevacuum Models 3013 and 3023. Products are designed for efficient sterilization of non-porous and porous, heat and moisture-stable materials used in healthcare facilities.

Reason

The firm discovered that some Eagle 3000 units may have a door post pin missing which could cause incomplete or no engagement of the radial arms into the lock rails of the door. The sterilizer is designed with switches that prevent cycle initiation if the door is not locked. However, in the event the door switches are not properly adjusted they may falsely indicate that the door is locked even t

Action

On March 5, 2008, Steris issued an Urgent Product Correction. Beginning March 6, 2008 customers were notified by telephone. The firm instructed their customers to immediately discontinue using the small Renaissance Eagle 3000 steam sterilizer(s) until inspected and corrected by a service technician.
