Exclamation What happens when a valve on an airtank breaks of?!
Hi...

First I don't know if it's the right subforum for this... If not, I hope some moderator will move it

I found this video on YouTube that illustrate what (could) happens if a valve breaks of an airtank. The tanks shown are 6 liters 300 bars for fire fighting, but the principle should be the same...



Cheers

Do these tanks not have dip tubes?
