Sysmex, Automated Hematology Analyzer XN Series, Sysmex Corporation, 1-5-1 Wakinohama-Kaigandori, Chuo-ku, Kobe 651-0073 Japan

Reason

Completed CAPA identified the root cause as supplier providing defective component (sensor ready valve) and the misalignment of the electronic protective shield during manufacturing of the device.
