Product

ORTHO¿ Assay Software (OAS) Server, Catalog # 6842840 Usage: The ORTHO¿ Summit System (OSS) is a modular, integrated system for use with licensed blood screening tests. Consisting of networked processors and instruments linked together via a local area network, assay-specific pipetting protocols and ORTHO Assay Software (OAS), OSS automates many of the processing functions and data management requirements associated with ELISA (enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay) microplate testing.

Reason

There is evidence that an electrical short within the systems connector has caused an accumulation of heat which has radiated back through the wiring harness causing the wires and connectors to melt.
