Allura Xper FD20 X-ray systems recalled over premature BIOS battery depletion

Philips is recalling 5,067 Allura Xper FD20 interventional X-ray systems because the BIOS battery may deplete faster than designed, halting start-up with no warning.

What this means for you

Minor labeling or packaging issue, or a voluntary precautionary recall. Risk of harm is low but real — follow the manufacturer's instructions.

Our severity reasoning: Scored 2 as a component failure whose stated effect is that the system will not start; the notice describes no in-use hazard or patient harm.

Plain-English summary

Allura Xper FD20 interventional X-ray systems, model numbers 722006, 722012 and 722028, are being recalled because the BIOS battery may deplete faster than was anticipated during the design phase.

When the battery is depleted, the start-up process of the system is halted and the system will not start. No user messages are shown before the battery is low on power or depleted, so there is no advance indication that the failure is coming.

The recall covers 5,067 units, of which 1,626 are in the United States and 3,441 outside it. Distribution was worldwide. The FDA has classified the action as Class II.

Affected sites should follow Philips' instructions for battery replacement and plan for the possibility that a system may not start when next powered on.
