Critical riskHealth Canada

An official Health Canada notice concerns Liberator stationary liquid oxygen device. There were inconsistencies in weld penetration on the longitudinal weld seam on the inner bottle. This can lead to premature inner vessel failure. The failure mode would be potential loss of vacuum, which could cause either an over-delivery of oxygen or the outer vessel to frost. Increased flow of oxygen from the relief valves could lead to an increased fire risk. Recall start date: October 11, 2022 Published 2022-11-09.
