Beckman Coulter recalls Access 2 Immunoassay System Analyzers with misaligned index wheels that cause reagent errors and delayed patient results.
Beckman Coulter, Inc. has identified a rise in reagent carousel motion errors in Access 2 Immunoassay System Analyzers that appear to be caused by misaligned index wheels housed within the reagent carousel module. Customers affected by this issue may observe an increase in reagent carousel motion errors or QSMC errors that occur while unloading or loading reagent packs during system initialization and sample processing, which causes a non-operational system status and cancels tests; and patient results may be delayed if these errors cancel test processing.
