I'm talking about an commercial/industrial type of BPD, not the medical kind. The medical kind are designed to prevent liquids from getting into the concentrator (for example: saline used in breathing therapy). They usually don't prevent full backpressure (and flow) of 7-10 PSI of pressure back into the concentrator.
Concentrators have built-in alarms for stoppage of the air-line, but full blown back pressure can blow out valves etc. A Very Bad Thing.
