Emerson process mgmt regulator tech inc. (emerson) is recalling certain fisher, two-inch, h282, h882, h5112, and h8112 pressure relief valves manufactured january 1, 2003, to july 3, 2014, and used in cargo tank trailer applications. the affected relief valves may break, causing the upper portion of the valve to separate from the stem, and possibly be ejected upward from the tank.

If the relief valve breaks, an uncontrolled release of pressurized gas into the atmosphere may result increasing the risk of personal injury or fire. additionally, the ejected valve could become a road hazard, increasing the risk of crash.
