Why these products were recalled

There is a potential that the coin cell battery used to monitor X-Ray tube temperature may deplete early causing the system to become inoperable.

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.
