Cool Apeks rubber balloon

Hi all, see pic link

Strange Apeks rubber seal blow up

This happened on my stage cylinder. Any ideas what might have caused it? The cylinder is not pressurised, its turned off. I just got it out of the shed to get everything put in for servicing.

cheers

Andy

Hmmm, not good !!

That looks to me like the diaphram has failed/leaked and the air pressure is pushing the environmental seal out. Time for a service ?
