Reported risk: Maquet Cardiopulmonary GmbH has received complaints in relation to leaking vacuum valves of the HCU 40. Based on engineering testing, it is possible that after performing the emptying mode, the vacuum valve does not fully close. When the HCU 40 is then operated again, water can leak.
