Firm Action

The recall notification identifies the reason for recall of specific TS1500 units to be that the repair process employed could restrict the customer's ability to clean and visually check the device for cleanliness. This can be identified by the customer by evidence of bioburden or particulate buildup in the seams of the device. Inadequate or incomplete cleaning of the unit may compromise the sterility of the load.
The firm asks customers to immediately discontinue use of the device and complete the provided Return Response Form to [email protected]. Turbett will contact customers to coordinate the replacement of the unit and correction of the recalled device.
