Reason

Philips Healthcare has discovered through customer feedback, a system restart failure as a result of a blown fuse. The fuse was blown due to an unexpected main power failure in the hospital in which the uninterruptible power supply (UPS) took over.

Philips discovered after internal investigation that in time the fuse degrades.

The degrading depends on the initial value of the fuse, the current through the fuse, a continuous high operating temperature, the environmental temperature and the time the system is operational.

After degradation, the blowing of the fuse may be triggered by an unexpected main power failure as described above.
