Alinity m System, Part Number: 08N53-002
The Alinity m System camera detects whether tubes are "capped." If the camera detects a cap and the retention bar is not present on the sample rack, the system will generate the message 'Error - 6013: Has cap, no retention bar." Abbott has identified an issue concerning the use of certain third-party Universal Transport Medium (UTM) tubes on the Alinity m System. This issue has been observed with Copan UTM-RT 3 mL Without Beads Transport & Preservation Medium for Viral Molecular Diagnostics Testing, Part Number (PN) 3C047N. However, it is possible that other third party manufactured tubes could experience the same issue.
