Manufacturer Narrative
|
The customer's report that the silicone segment ballooned was confirmed.Visual inspection observed that the silicone segment area, directly underneath the upper fitment, was misshapen and was of a different appearance than the rest of the silicone segment.Further visual inspection under magnification found the walls of the silicone tubing segment to be concentric.No functional testing was performed due to visual observation.Previously investigated complaints for this failure mode determined that the ballooning is caused by excess pressure within the silicone segment.The root cause for the source of the excessive pressure is unknown.
