- Apr 30, 2026Class IIOpen, Classified
It was identified that HDDs used in the PCs of Azurion and Allura systems may show a decrease in performance as they age, particularly beyond six years of service. Issues with an HDD may, depending on the specific system PC in which the affected HDD is installed, result in loss of imaging functionality. Additionally, in Allura systems, this may lead to loss of motorized movement, or loss of data. In some cases, a system restart may temporarily restore functionality.

- Apr 28, 2026Class IIOpen, Classified
The deaeration hose in X-ray tube cooling units type CU3101, manufactured between February 2016 and May 2020, may degrade over time, potentially resulting in oil leakage. Oil leakage may affect the cooling performance of the X-ray tube. When the oil flow drops below a certain threshold, the system automatically switches to low-dose fluoroscopy and displays the message Low load fluoroscopy flavor selected: Tube cooler problem . This condition cannot be resolved by restarting the system.

- Dec 15, 2025Class IIOpen, Classified
Philips has identified that in a limited number of impacted systems the drip tray beneath the cooling unit was not installed under previous field corrections, or evidence of the implementation was not adequately documented. If it is not installed, there is a potential for coolant liquid to contact electrical components. This could lead to electrical short-circuits, which may trigger system fuses and result in system shutdown.

- Sep 3, 2025Class IIOpen, Classified
Systems may not perform as intended due to the deterioration of certain internal components (the CMOS battery, hard disk drive, and/or power supply unit). If this deterioration occurs, motorized movements of the system will become unavailable. Manual movements of the stand (longitudinal, transversal and rotational for ceiling mounted systems and rotational for floor mounted systems) and table longitudinal movements remain available. Imaging (X-ray) functionality remains available.
