REASON
An anomaly impacts the monitoring system of INOmax DSIR Plus (software 3.0.0). When the integrated pneumatic backup switch is activated with low or no gas flow through the injector module, an intended NO cell failure alarm will occur. In addition, an unintended NO2 cell failure alarm may also occur. The NO/NO2 cell failure alarms are caused by an average NO/NO2 circuit concentration greater than 200 ppm/25 ppm respectively over a 10 second period..
