Why it was recalled

The recall was initiated because Beckman Coulter has identified a software error on AU5800 analyzers with the Automation Ready (AR) Sampler Kit. This software error results in the failure of the concentrated wash solution pump to stop, creating an overflow or leak on each analyzer unit.

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