Reason

Recall was initiated because an internal tubing component in the flow part used the incorrect tubing. The component is made of nylon tubing instead of polyethylene material. The nylon tubing has not been tested for use in this device, and has been shown to exhibit increased kinking which could lead to restricted flow from the unit.
