Daavlin recalls Photera 400 phototherapy devices with incorrect UV sensor calibration that may cause unsafe light exposure levels.
Calibrated Output was not calculating correctly - UV Sensor GAIN being applied was incorrect - GAIN seemed to be "4/5" instead of "7" (counts were at ~1000 instead of ~5000).
Daavlin is recalling Photera 400 phototherapy devices because their UV sensors were miscalibrated, potentially leading to incorrect light exposure levels. This could cause unsafe UV radiation levels during treatment.
The device's UV sensor was miscalibrated, showing a gain value of "4/5" instead of "7". This means the device reported lower UV output than it actually produced, potentially leading to unsafe exposure levels during treatment.
