What was recalled

The mounting systems were sold for use in hospital Intensive Care Units. The units are off-white and have multiple joints between the ceiling mount and the TV mount at the end of the arm system.

Hazard

The arm joints on the television mounting system do not have a washer at the top joint which can result in excessive wear of the stop pins on the arm. This can allow the arm system and items connected to the arm to fall and injure the user or bystanders.

Injuries

The firm received one report of a mounting system falling while being positioned. No injuries have been reported.

Made in

Germany

Where it was sold

  • TRUMPF Medical Systems Inc. nationwide From January 2005 through December 2011 for about $2,100.
