AQUA LUNG scuba regulators and adaptors — drowning risk

Hazard

The product poses a risk of drowning because over-tightening of the DIN retainer by a technician during installation can result in the retainer breaking under pressure, a rapid escape of air from the scuba cylinder and the regulator detaching from the scuba cylinder.

Measures taken
