Repligen recalls Maverick Measurement Module Spectrometer PN 820-01367 due to potential laser output exceeding safe levels and unintended firing risks. Affected units may cause injury if cables become disconnected or poorly crimped.
Potential Elevated Laser Output A disconnected cable or a poorly crimped cable under mechanical bending stress can cause loss of electrical contact. At one connection on the board, the failure can drive the laser output to approximately 1,600 mW. Potential Unintended Laser Firing A disconnected, or poorly crimped cable can falsely signal a fire command during measurement cycles. At a secondary location on the board, this fault can lead to unexpected laser activation during operation. Safety logic prevents firing when the system is idle.
Repligen is recalling Maverick Measurement Module Spectrometer units that could have unsafe laser output levels or unintended activation. This poses a risk of injury if the device malfunctions during use.
A disconnected or poorly crimped cable can cause the laser output to reach 1,600 mW, which is potentially harmful. Additionally, the device might activate unexpectedly during operation, especially if the system is not idle, though safety logic prevents firing when idle.
Users of the Maverick Measurement Module Spectrometer, particularly those in labs or industrial settings where precise measurements are needed. People handling the device without proper safety protocols are most at risk.
Check for the product code PN 820-01367 (originally part of kit PN 820-01519) on the device. Finished Goods PN 820-01496 is also affected. The device was sold as part of a kit or standalone.
Inspect cables for disconnection or poor crimping that could cause laser output to exceed safe levels.
If the device activates unexpectedly, stop using it immediately and contact Repligen for assistance.
