Reason for recall
Rotors have been found with a non-conforming microstructure, which may result in some rotors breaking into two or more pieces during use. Rotors that break into multiple pieces during use may result in significant damage to materials (i.e., samples) being processed in the centrifuge and to the centrifuge instrument.
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.
