overpressurized
Dangerously excess pressure
Overpressurized describes something containing too much internal pressure—beyond safe or intended levels.
A container, cabin, or system becomes overpressurized when pressure builds past its design limits: The tank ruptured after becoming overpressurized.
The term appears in aviation, diving, and industrial contexts where pressure regulation is critical to safety.
