Are you diving technicial and need an Oxygen Clean reg that you can trust?  Then the XTX50 has to be it.

With the Green front, you will not mistake it for any of your other regulators, making it the obvious choice for technical divers wanting a highly visible regulator that they cannot mistake for any other regulator when it counts.

Apeks Nitrox regulators are suitable for use with up to 100% O2 out of the box and are colour-coded for easy identification.  The hose is a standard primary regulator hose length, not a 100cm or longer stage bottle length.

The regulators have been specially cleaned and assembled in our purpose built class 'J' (10,000) Clean Room using oxygen safe components and lubricants. DIN fitting.

The XTX50 is for the discerning diver who wants the benefits of a feature-rich regulator at a moderate price. This popular regulator has four medium-pressure ports all mounted on a rotating turret, resulting in optimal hose routing while eliminating sharp bends in the hose.

Nitrox equipment will be supplied in Europe in accordance with the EN 144-3 and the EN13949 which states that equipment sold in CEE (European Community) countries over 21% and up to 100% will be manufactured with the special M26 fitting.

Four medium-pressure ports all mounted on a rotating turret. This results in optimal hose routing while eliminating sharp bends in the hose.

Features an innovative Diver Changeable Exhaust system (DCE). This system gives the diver the ability to change from a small exhaust tee to a large exhaust tee. This gives the user a choice, wider exhaust tee for minimal bubble interference (essential for underwater photography) and narrow exhaust tee for a smaller compact comfortable regulator. The regulator is supplied with both sets of exhaust tees.

Optional 5th port is available for sidemount or twin cylinder set ups.

Simon says 

"To optimise this 5th port, the HP seat will be temporarily removed, so it is best done during a service as you will have to replace the HP seat.  The regulators will then need to be O2 cleaned.

The set also comes with a standard single tank primary regulator length hose.  If this is to be used for a stage bottle, a longer 100 to 120cm hose may be preferred.  (If staging from the right, the hose is a little too long without going behind the head).  "Remember the new hose will have to be O2 cleaned before use.  

Can be converted from a right-handed hose configuration to a left-handed one. The process of changing the regulator to a left-handed configuration is both quick and simple. However this procedure must ONLY be performed by an APEKS Authorised Service Technician.

Available in yoke or DIN configuration.

Braided flexi-hoses are now standard on all models. These hoses are lighter weight, more flexible and more durable.

Suitable for coldwater use (below 10 C / 50 F).

Compatible with EAN40 out of the box.

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 thus 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.

Comes with full manufacturer's warranty and free shipping anywhere in New Zealand.  As we back all of our products, if you are not satisfied, for ANY reason, then simply return the regulator for a full refund.

We'll assemble and test the regulator onsite so it's ready for you to use straight out of the box.  We strive to provide the best after sales service in the country so once you get the regulator if you have any questions then we are more than happy to help.
