  • Causa
    Roche have identified incorrect information regarding acceptable non-standard tube (nst) diameter in the operator’s manual for the cobas 8000 modular analyser series. version 5.0 of the operator’s manual for this system (published 1 july 2016) incorrectly states that 11 to 16 mm diameter nsts may be used on the cobas e 602 module and cobas e 801 module. this was found in the chapter “specifications of containers”, section “list of non-standard tubes”.This typographical error has now been corrected in version 5.1 of the manual (published 6 february 2017), to state that only 13 to 16 mm diameter nsts may be used on the cobas e 602 module or cobas e 801 module. version 4.2.1 and all prior versions of the operator’s manual also state the correct acceptable nst diameters. to date, no customer complaints regarding this issue have been received.
  • Acción
    Roche is advising users to ensure that only tubes with a diameter of 13 to 16mm are used on the cobas e 602 and cobas e 801 modules. Users are requested to replace any available Version 5.0 cobas 8000 operator’s manual in your laboratory network with Version 5.1, which contains the correct non-standard tube diameter information. This updated version is also available for download.
