Product
Siemens Symbia S Series system, a diagnostic analog or digital detector based planar (2- dimensional) nuclear medicine (NM) imaging system installed and used in only one location within an imaging facility or in a mobile/ transportable imaging environment.
Reason for recall
Fuses with the improper amperage rating were installed in the Symbia S, Symbia T Series and Symbia lntevo systems. These fuses, in conjunction with a specific failure mode of the Power Controller assembly, could lead to the overheating of the assembly.
