Product Information
The Atomic Aquatics SS1 Safe Second Stainless is a combination alternate air source and BCD power inflator that replaces the traditional octopus and its separate hose with one streamlined unit. It breathes through a patented Titanium Seat Saving Dynamic Orifice, uses a titanium lever that will not fail due to rust or corrosion, and is rated for EAN mixtures up to 50% oxygen.
Who it is for
It is for divers who want fewer hoses and a cleaner, lower-drag setup without giving up a reliable backup air supply. Recreational and nitrox divers benefit from the 50% oxygen compatibility, while the oversized inflation and deflation buttons suit cold-water divers wearing gloves. Because the SS1 fits virtually any BCD brand through Atomic's patented adapter system, it also works as an upgrade for an existing BC rather than a new-BC-only accessory, and it is offered as an add-on option for the Atomic BC2.
Key details
- Dual function: safe second regulator plus BC power inflator in one body, eliminating the separate octopus hose.
- Materials: 316 stainless steel quick disconnect coupling, regulator valve body and inflation/deflation stems; titanium orifice and lever.
- Breathing control: integrated Venturi system to enhance airflow and reduce free-flow risk, plus an integrated flexible purge cover that activates anywhere on its surface.
- Hose: high-flow LP hose with quick disconnect, interchangeable with other Atomic models but smaller and lighter; quick disconnects on both the LP hose and the BC hose.
- Service: recommended every 2 years or 200 dives for stainless steel models.
Compatibility and sizing
Fits virtually any BCD brand via the Atomic adapter system. Gas compatibility is EAN/nitrox up to 50% oxygen. Color options are Red, Yellow, Blue, Pink, Aqua, Purple and Black Titanium. The low-profile elliptical housing lies flat against the BC to reduce drag, and a comfort swivel allows flexible hose positioning.

Frequently Asked Questions
Will the Atomic SS1 fit my BCD?
Yes, the SS1 fits virtually any BCD on the market through Atomic Aquatics' patented adapter system, so you do not need an Atomic BC to use it. It is also offered as an add-on option for the Atomic BC2 BCD. If you are unsure which adapter matches your inflator hose and corrugated hose, call 888-701-4017 and we will confirm it with you before you order.
Can I use the SS1 with nitrox?
Yes. The Atomic Aquatics SS1 is compatible with EAN mixtures up to 50% oxygen, which covers standard recreational nitrox blends such as EAN32 and EAN36. Beyond that it combines a safe second regulator with your BC power inflator, so one unit handles buoyancy control and backup breathing.
How often does the SS1 need servicing?
Atomic Aquatics recommends servicing stainless steel models every 2 years or 200 dives, while titanium models move to 3 years or 300 dives. Service is recommended rather than warranty-mandatory. The patented Titanium Seat Saving Dynamic Orifice helps by preventing wear of the low-pressure seat, which extends seat life between overhauls.
Does the SS1 replace my octopus regulator?
Yes, that is the point of the design. The SS1 combines an octopus regulator and a BC power inflator in one low-profile body, so you remove the separate octopus and its hose from your setup. The elliptical housing lies flat against the BC to reduce drag, and oversized inflation and deflation buttons keep it easy to operate with gloves.
Review summary
The Atomic Aquatics SS1 Safe Second Stainless is a combined safe-second regulator and BCD inflator, so one unit handles both backup air and buoyancy control. It has a patented Titanium Seat Saving Dynamic Orifice that reduces low-pressure seat wear, a titanium lever that will not rust or corrode, a flexible purge cover that purges when pressed anywhere on its surface, and a high-flow LP hose and disconnect interchangeable with many other models. It is rated for EAN blends up to 50% oxygen. Written reviews are still few. It suits divers who want to simplify their alternate air and inflator setup, including nitrox divers.
