Apeks XTX50 Yoke Dive Regulator

Introducing the all-new APEKS Regulator, equipped with advanced features to enhance your diving experience. This regulator boasts four medium-pressure ports, strategically mounted on a rotating turret for optimal hose routing and eliminating sharp bends in the hose.One standout feature of this regulator is the innovative Diver Changeable Exhaust system (DCE), allowing the diver to switch between a small exhaust tee for minimal bubble interference, ideal for underwater photography, and a large exhaust tee for a compact and comfortable fit. The regulator comes with both sets of exhaust tees, giving you the flexibility to customize your diving experience.Additionally, this regulator offers an optional 5th port for sidemount or twin cylinder setups, providing versatility for various diving configurations. It can also be easily converted from a right-handed hose configuration to a left-handed one, with the guidance of an APEKS Authorised Service Technician.Designed for convenience, this regulator is available in yoke or DIN configuration and comes with braided flexi-hoses as standard, delivering a lightweight, flexible, and durable solution for all your diving needs. Not to mention, it is suitable for cold water use below 10°C / 50°F, and compatible with EAN40 right out of the box.Don't compromise on quality and performance when it comes to your diving gear. Invest in the APEKS Regulator today and experience the difference firsthand. Dive deeper, explore further, and make every dive memorable with this cutting-edge regulator by your side.

First Stage

• Uses the DST first stage
• Unique over-balanced diaphragm design - as the diver descends, the over-balancing feature allows the medium pressure gas in the hose to increase at a rate faster than ambient. This results in superior performance at depth.
• 2 HP ports and 4 MP ports on a rotating turret are angled for optimum hose routing.
• An environmental dry system keeps water out of the main spring chamber, preventing ice buildup and keeping silt and contamination out.

Second Stage

• Pneumatically-balanced second stage results in smooth, easy breathing.
• The XTX purge buttons are large and easy to operate. A 2-stage progressive purge is used - press the purge on the side for a lower flow rate, useful where more control is required such as filling lift bags etc, then press in the centre for the full effect of the purge, i.e. when regulator clearing etc.
• The large venturi lever has a soft touch rubber grip, which makes it easier to locate and use. The lever reduces the amount of grit ingress and therefore resists any possible friction giving a smooth operation.
• Easy-to-grip opening effort control knob keeps the diver in control.
• The second stage is manufactured with active protection against infection as all molded parts are produced with an additive that kills MRSA, protects against E-Coli, bacteria and fungi, and is also very effective against viruses, mould, yeast and algae.
• A silicone exhaust valve improves the breathing performance of the regulator.
• The Comfo-bite™ mouthpiece virtually eliminates jaw-fatigue.
• A heat exchanger (patented) which surrounds the valve mechanism, dissipates the cold caused by gas expansion while drawing in the warmth of the ambient water.
