Reason for recall

The firm became aware of cases in which the battery run times of the optional PS 500 power supply unit with the Infinity Workstation Critical Care (Evita Infinity V 500) were unexpectedly short due to the design of the charging algorithm in the current software. Devices used for patient transport will be a priority.
