Plain-English summary
Philips North America has recalled specific Allura Xper interventional fluoroscopic X-ray systems with Laird chillers that lack extended drip trays. A leak in the detector cooling system allows cooling liquid to escape outside the drip tray and potentially drip onto electrical components in the R cabinet located in the technical room.
Cooling liquid contacting electrical components could damage the system and potentially cause thermal events such as burning odors, smoke, or fire.
In the United States, 63 systems are affected. Worldwide, 127 additional systems are affected across countries including Argentina, Austria, Bangladesh, Brazil, Chile, China, Denmark, Dominican Republic, France, Germany, Greece, India, Indonesia, Iran, Israel, Italy, Japan, South Korea, Malaysia, Mexico, the Netherlands, the Philippines, Russia, Saudi Arabia, South Africa, Spain, Sri Lanka, Switzerland, Taiwan, Thailand, Turkey, the United Kingdom, and the US Virgin Islands.
