Hazard

The product has a valve which does not correspond to the safety requirements. As a result, the valve can malfunction and cause excessive pressure on the tank, which could burst. Furthermore, the materials are too thin to withstand pressure, and the purging device has been installed in a place where it may not perform adequately. Consequently, the product may explode, injuring the users. The product does not comply with the requirements of the Pressure Equipment Directive nor with the European standard EN 286-1.
