Why was Overhead Counterpoise Systems recalled?
The torque wrench used on the ceiling column assembly during a recent service visit was outside of the torque specification, potentially overtightening the bolts. The overtightening of bolts may compromise the structural integrity of the system which could lead to the OCS disengaging from the ceiling mount and this may cause injury to the patient or the operator.
