     Oceanic Regulator First Stage Recall/Retrofit
Saturday, January 05, 2008
Oceanic has been notified by its supplier (ROMI, Ent.) that they have received isolated reports of DX type Regulator First Stages exhibiting uncontrolled flow of air to the Second Stage.

Evaluation has shown that a specific batch of HP (High Pressure) Seats contained material that can deteriorate and fail to properly perform its mechanical sealing (shut off) function, causing an uncontrollable free flow that could result in serious injury to or death of the user.

In cooperation with the U.S. CPSC (Consumer Product Safety Commission), ROMI is initiating a voluntary recall of all affected CDX5 and FDX10 (diaphragm) type First Stages.

The affected First Stages include those that were shipped to Oceanic retailers from the factory between May 1, 2006, and Nov. 15, 2006. Other model DX type First Stages, such as the CDX, DXi, DX3, DX4 and TDX5, that received annual service between May 1, 2006, and Oct. 22, 2007, may also be affected.

Determine whether your fist stage is affected.

If you have an affected unit, you must discontinue further use of it and take it to the Oceanic dealer where you purchased it or a local authorized Oceanic service center for a component retrofit at no charge.
