FDA PRODUCT CODE · CLASS II
LZG — Pump, Infusion, Insulin
What these counts are not
Clearance and recall counts are SPEQ’s aggregation of FDA’s own published records for the code. A recall count is a measure of history, not of a device’s safety, neither number is an FDA rating, and SPEQ is not affiliated with the FDA.
What this classification requires
Every statement below is FDA’s own classification record for this product code, quoted from the device classification field reference. The SPEQ reading beneath each one is SPEQ’s interpretation of what it means for the work, and is not FDA text.
510(K)
SPEQ READINGA premarket notification under 21 CFR Part 807 Subpart E is the route for this code. The submission argues substantial equivalence to a legally marketed predicate, so the engineering question is which predicate the design can actually be compared against, and the evidence question is what testing supports that comparison.
Class II (moderate to high risk): general controls and special controls
SPEQ READINGSpecial controls are the distinguishing feature: performance standards, guidance documents, patient registries or postmarket surveillance named for the device type. Find the special controls before designing the test plan — they usually name the tests.
Device is not eligible for The Voluntary Malfunction Summary Reporting Program
SPEQ READINGIndividual malfunction reporting under 21 CFR Part 803 applies. The complaint-handling system has to produce a decision per event, not per period.
Not exempt due to Good Manufacturing Practice (GMP)/Quality System
SPEQ READINGThe full Quality Management System Regulation (21 CFR 820, incorporating ISO 13485:2016) applies, and is what an FDA inspection of this device will be conducted against.
Device is not implantable
SPEQ READINGNo implant-specific expectations attach from the classification itself.
Device is not used for life sustaining purposes
SPEQ READINGNo life-sustaining designation attaches to this code.
Device is not a candidate for a third party review program
SPEQ READINGFDA reviews any premarket notification for this code directly.
Other product codes under 21 CFR 880.5725
One regulation usually governs several product codes. These share this code’s regulation, and therefore its classification basis.
21 CFR 880.5725 — Infusion pump
The classification regulation for this product code, as published by the Office of the Federal Register. This is the regulation text itself — no SPEQ interpretation appears in it.
(a) Identification. An infusion pump is a device used in a health care facility to pump fluids into a patient in a controlled manner. The device may use a piston pump, a roller pump, or a peristaltic pump and may be powered electrically or mechanically. The device may also operate using a constant force to propel the fluid through a narrow tube which determines the flow rate. The device may include means to detect a fault condition, such as air in, or blockage of, the infusion line and to activate an alarm.
(b) Classification. Class II (performance standards).

The insulin pump may lose time and date settings during a power interruption (such as a battery change) due to a faulty capacitor. If the capacitor fails, the time and date will return to default setting. Though the pump prompts customers to confirm the time and date, if the user does not recognize
Animas determined that keypad wear over time was contributing to an increased complaint rate associated with damaged keypads on the Vibe Insulin Infusion Pump and System. Animas has implemented an improvement to the keypad related to the material used to reduce susceptibility to damage and increase
Specific lots of insulin cartridges that are used with the T:slim Insulin Pump may be at risk for leaking. A cartridge leak could result in the device delivering too much or too little insulin, which can lead to a serious adverse event.
