Reason for recall

The firm initiated the recall due to a molding defect in a high pressure stopcock where a small percentage of the side ports could become totally occluded.

Device recalls are issued when a component, software or design fault could cause the device to fail or give wrong readings. Many are corrections applied in the field rather than physical returns.
