What is the safety cover on the OC spray device?

• A. Plastic latch located on top of the Actuator button.
• B. Rubber seal around the nozzle.
• C. Metal cap at the bottom.
• D. Protective sleeve over the tube.

Answer: (A)

The safety feature is a plastic latch located on top of the actuator button. This latch acts as a guard that must be moved or lifted before the button can be pressed, preventing accidental deployment. It keeps the device from firing during handling or storage, so you can only spray when you intentionally disengage the latch.

Rubber seals around the nozzle are for protecting the nozzle and sealing but don’t prevent triggering. A metal cap at the bottom isn’t the safety mechanism for the spray actuator. A protective sleeve over the tube protects the tube but doesn’t stop the actuator from being pressed.
