Siemens recalls Artis zee biplane MN X-ray machines with model 10094143 due to power supply failure risk during procedures. Affected units may not produce X-rays properly.
A tolerance issue in the power supply of the generator control above a specific value may cause generator A100 failure. As a result, the X-ray tube will not be supplied with the required voltage and X-ray will not be possible. The issue occurs sporadically; however, it may occur during an on-going procedure.
