Philips recalls specific Integris-Allura X-ray systems due to potential oil leakage in cooling units, which may cause system shutdowns. Affected models include Integris CV Cesar-Powerpack-Visub-Nicol (722030) and others manufactured between Feb 2016 and May 2020.
The deaeration hose in X-ray tube cooling units type CU3101, manufactured between February 2016 and May 2020, may degrade over time, potentially resulting in oil leakage. Oil leakage may affect the cooling performance of the X-ray tube. When the oil flow drops below a certain threshold, the system automatically switches to low-dose fluoroscopy and displays the message Low load fluoroscopy flavor selected: Tube cooler problem . This condition cannot be resolved by restarting the system.
