Gentec Medical Air Regulators - 287 MA Series

Reason

At the outlet of the Regulator, a DISS Oxygen fitting might be mistakenly installed instead of a DISS Air fitting.  Users will not be able to connect Air hose to the outlet.  In addition, there is wording "OXYGEN" printed on gauge face. This may mislead users that the regulators supply Oxygen gas.
