Why these products were recalled

Beckman Coulter is initiating a recall due to a defective newly released aluminum incubator belt pulley that may rub against the light shield, which causes the formation of debris. Debris that is caused by the incubator belt pulley rubbing against the light shield can fall into the reaction vessels (RVs) and present a risk of erroneous test results.

The agency’s own wording, quoted from the enforcement report.

The unit total adds up the quantities the agency stated for each product. Where a product record gave no figure, or gave a weight rather than a count, it contributes nothing — so the real total is at least this, never less.
