Description

Apeks XTX50 DST regulator 

The XTX50 is for divers 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.

The XTX50 regulator can be converted from a right handed hose configuration (as supplied from the APEKS factory in the standard) to a left handed one. This feature is known as the Reversible Venturi System (RVS).

Along with all the benefits below, the beauty of the Apeks XTX50 with DST first stage is that as your diving progresses, this regulator can keep up with everything you wish to learn, no mater what configuration! from out the box sing tank, to progressing to twinset or sidemount diving to Rebreathers with the need for Bailout Cylinders. 

Purchasing once - with SO MANY uses means over the long term, you SAVE money!

Benefits of a Swivel Connection

Improved mouthpiece comfort as a standard hose tends to push your regulator out of your mouth due to hose stiffness when cold and under pressure. Allows you to rotate your head more easily during a dive. Greater general freedom of movement as this is less restrictive than a standard hose. Reduces jaw fatigue increasing the enjoyment of your dive. Beautifully engineered, smooth swivel second stage connection allows multi-directional movement.

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.

Octopus is included in this package.
