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.

Plain-English summary

Comet Technologies USA Inc is recalling 93 YXLON Cougar Cabinet X-Ray Systems. These products are generally used for non-destructive testing and quality control. The recall covers units distributed nationwide in the United States.

The recall was issued because the products fail to meet the requirement of the performance standard for cabinet x-ray systems (21 CFR 1020.40). Specifically, the door interlock that causes physical disconnection of the power supply using only the movement of the door does not function as required.
