Fisher is informing affected customers of this circumstance in accordance with Section 21.21 (b) of 10 CFR 21.
Applicability:
This FIN applies only to the subject equipment supplied by Fisher as identified above.
Discussion:
Upon review of an order for replacement parts of a valve assembly, an individual was reviewing the parts originally selected for dedication and drew into question the processing level of supplied mounting parts, specifically the bolting used to secure a Vee-Ball valve body to an actuator. An investigation was opened to determine if the bolting had been provided in the previous order and if the bolting should have been classified as a basic component.
