SAFETY WARNING: <R77> 125 psi Pressure Relief Valve
 

Our team has just discovered this morning that the Norgren "125" psi relief valve as supplied in the KoP was NOT calibrated to 125 psi.

We took it up to 160psi and it did not release.

Rule <R77> states in bold letters that Teams are not allowed to adjust the 125-psi relief valve.

The "Pneumatics Manual" at the USFIRST website says nothing about adjusting this valve.

Are other teams aware of this potential safety issue?
