Recalled products

  1. 5mL Reaction Vessels used with the m2000sp Instrument

Reason

During run setup on a M2000SP instrument a customer found two 5 ml reaction vessels, list number 04J71-20, with missing rims that fell through the 1ml subsystem carrier. Some of the 5 ml reaction vessels (RV) in the affected lots may have an insufficient rim.  A  RV with an insufficient rim may not be held securely in the 1ml subsystem carrier.  This may cause the RV to be seated incorrectly in the carrier or drop through it.
