DxI 800 immunoassay analyzer motor current resets below the required setting

A DxI 800 Access Immunoassay Analyzer is being recalled because software overwrites the factory PnP X-motor current setting, causing increased motion errors that could delay patient results.

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: FDA Class II recall where the stated consequence is a delay in reporting results rather than an incorrect patient result.

Plain-English summary

The DxI 800 Access Immunoassay Analyzer with Dual Gantry, part number A71457, UDI-DI 15099590369231, serial number 608109, is being recalled. The action covers 1 system.

According to Beckman Coulter, UniCel DxI 600/800 systems with linear slide PnP gantries running software versions 5.7 and up faced incorrect PnP X-motor current settings, where the current incorrectly resets to 1.5A instead of the required 2.0A because the software overwrites the factory setting during installs or upgrades. The manufacturer states this anomaly causes increased PnP motion errors which could lead to delays in reporting patient sample results if unnoticed. The FDA classified the action as Class II.

Distribution was worldwide, including nationwide in the United States.

Laboratories should identify affected systems using the part number, UDI-DI and serial number above and follow the instructions issued by Beckman Coulter.
