Beckman Coulter, Inc. is recalling 143 units of the Dxl 9000 Access Immunoassay Analyzer (Catalog #C11137) because they were manufactured with incorrect USB cables. These cables utilize brass contacts instead of the required gold contacts, which are prone to corrosion over time. This defect can cause the analyzer to lose internal communication, resulting in failures and significant delays in providing patient test results.
The use of brass instead of gold in the USB cable contacts leads to chemical corrosion. If the contacts corrode, the instrument's internal components cannot communicate effectively, which may stop the device from functioning and cause delays in medical diagnosis or treatment.
