AI Explanation
The correct answer is D) over pressurization of the CO2 discharge piping. The safety outlet is provided on the CO2 discharge piping to prevent over pressurization of the piping system itself. This is a safety feature required by regulations to ensure the piping can withstand the pressure of the CO2 discharge without rupturing. The other options are incorrect because they do not specifically address the purpose of the safety outlet on the piping.
