Product

Autosampler, Models: SIL-20ACXR CL, SIL-20ACHT CL, SIL-30AC CL

Why was it recalled?

There have been cases of failure of the main board due to condensation water drained from the Peltier dehumidifier, leaked out from the tray, resulting in a short circuit. In the serious case, the main board and adjacent cables are partly charred. In the minor case, the Y motor and its surrounding die cast part become rusty. These failures could result in delay in patient sample testing.

FDA enforcement reports do not list a consumer remedy. Check the product codes below against what you have; if it matches, stop using it and follow the instructions in the firm's or FDA's official notice, or contact the company. If you have health concerns, contact your healthcare provider.
