The onsite investigation result built the basis for the investigation.However the broken holding claw was not available.An exact root cause analysis was therefore not possible.We do not have a report that the oxylog 3000 had been dropped or was in use when the fault was discovered, however it is possible that in case of a falling device a person nearby could be injured.The holding claw is designed to withstand ten times the maximum weight of a fully equipped oxylog carrying system.The affected oxylog 3000 was manufactured in august 2007.The number of similar cases, related to the same failure pattern, is within the expected range of the respective risk assessment and thus accepted.
