Why it was recalled

Failure of the HEATER-COOLER UNIT (HCU 30) Type 2 power supply board. A drop of more than 10% voltage can cause overheating and subsequent failing of the R56 thermistor of the power supply board. Board failure typically occurs when the compressor is switched on (prior to patient use); however, it can occur during patient use. This can shut down the compressor or the entire HCU 30 Type 2 unit.

This product could cause temporary or reversible health problems — stop using it.
