MICRO-X Rover Mobile X-ray System environmental operating requirements

Micro-X Ltd. is recalling 6 units of the MICRO-X Rover Mobile X-ray System due to environmental operating risks. The system requires strict temperature, humidity, and altitude controls to prevent capacitor malfunction, overheating, and unintended start-up.

What this means for you

Real risk of harm even if no illness or injury has been reported yet. Stop using the product and follow the agency's guidance.

Our severity reasoning: This is an FDA Class II recall of a medical x-ray system with potential for capacitor malfunction, overheating, and unintended start-up if environmental operating parameters are not maintained. No illnesses or injuries have been reported; the hazards are theoretical and contingent on environmental non-compliance.

Storage conditions allow broader tolerances: temperature between 14 and 131 degrees Fahrenheit and humidity up to 86 percent, with adequate time allowed for condensation to dry. A maximum temperature gradient of 9 degrees Fahrenheit should not be exceeded.
