- Action
- URGENT: MEDICAL DEVICE CORRECTION notification letters dated 4/17/20 were sent to customers. What is the impact to the operation of the system and what are the possible risks? There is no impact to the operation of the system, however, unplugging the main cable can cause an unsafe electrical voltage (up to 67,6 V DC) at the X10 connector which can result in an electrical shock if the user or other persons touch the contact pins of the X10 connector. How was the subject identified and what is the root cause? The issue was identified by the manufacturer during system assembly when the plug of the main cable was unplugged. The root cause is a design flaw in a generator component of the generator Polydoros M25 revision 04. What actions do we recommend urgently to mitigate possible risks? We strongly recommend that you do not unplug the main cable until the generator is repaired by a service engineer. How will the corrective action be implemented and what is the efficiency of the corrective actions? Siemens will correct the hardware error via Update Instruction AX028/20/S in which a Siemens Service Engineer will repair the generator at your site. Our service organization will contact you shortly to arrange a date to perform this corrective action. Please feel free to contact our service organization for an earlier appointment at 1-800-888-7436. Following the correction, the cause is eliminated, and any recurrence of this potential fault is prevented.
