Description
Go warm, go cold, go deep, go anywhere. Enjoy control in the extreme with the MTX-RC scuba diving regulator. Combining rugged, military grade engineering with the super-smooth breathing experience that Apeks regulators are renowned for, the MTX-RC is the regulator that lets you explore more.
First Stage
First Stage Satin plated brass body with heat exchanging ribs for maximum thermal performance. Break through, innovative over-moulded first-stage endcap and environmental diaphragm helps prevent ice build-up that can cause first stage free flow in extreme circumstances. Also protects the first stage from impact damage. Ribbed diaphragm clamp for improved heat exchange in cold water conditions. 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 faster rate than ambient. This results in superior performance at depth. 5 x medium pressure ports, 4 mounted on a rotating turret for improved hose orientation 2 x angled high pressure ports for optimal hose routing and fitting of transmitters. Double swivel hose for greater freedom of movement and comfort. Easy to grip DIN hand-wheel or over-moulded yoke hand-wheel, only requires one hand to release. DIN, Yoke and M26 Thread available, 300bar, 232bar and M26 300bar (O2) respectively. Tested for Octopus use – EN250A to 60 metres cold water. Nitrox/Oxygen compatible – Up to 40% O2 outside the EU (European Union), within the EU anything above 21% O2 must use an M26 Connection.
Second Stage
Second Stage Protective bumpers to protect the second stage from impacts and scratches in the most vulnerable places. Ergonomic and simple to use venturi lever. Oversize breathing effort adjuster makes adjustment easy in cold water whilst wearing gloves. Large purge button. Reversible second stage for either a left or right hand gas supply configuration. A heat exchanger (patented) dissipates the cold caused by gas expansion while drawing in the warmth of the ambient water for a more comfortable breathe. Features an innovative Diver Changeable Exhaust system (DCE). The system gives the diver the ability to change from a small exhaust tee to a large exhaust tee. The regulator is supplied with both sets of exhaust tees. Comfo-bite mouthpiece Flexible nylon braided hose, which has better cold water performance than traditional rubber hose. Designed and manufactured in the UK. No single use plastic in the packaging.
- 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 faster rate than ambient. This results in superior
performance at depth - Compact environmentally dry sealed diaphragm system completely eliminating the maintenance issues
associated with silicone, oil or grease filling - Break through, innovative over-moulded first-stage endcap & environmental diaphragm helps prevent
ice build-up that can cause first stage free flow in extreme circumstances. Also protects the first stage
from impact damage - Easy to grip DIN hand-wheel or over-moulded yoke hand-wheel, only requires one hand to release.
- Comes standard with 5 MP and 2 HP ports
- The 5th medium pressure port includes a protective bumper when not in use
- Forged first stage body with heat exchanging ribs for maximum thermal performance
- Angled HP ports for optimal hose routing and fitting of transmitters
- Forged rotating turret with medium pressure ports in a parallel direction for improved hose orientation
- Ribbed diaphragm clamp for improved heat exchange in cold water conditions
- Double swivel hose for greater freedom of movement and comfort
- Second Stage
Simple to use with no diver adjustment controls and reduced chance of free flow occurrence, presettable
cracking effort or venturi control by an Apeks approved qualified technician- High performance pneumatically balanced lever operated poppet valve
Large, diver friendly self-flushing controllable purge button - Front cover with over-moulded elastomer incorporates a formed chrome plated brass plate improving
durability of the second stage - Large protective elastomer bumpers on the side and on the top to protect the second stage from
impacts and scratches in the most vulnerable places - Reversible second stage allows for left or right hand configuration
- 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 - Features an innovative Diver Changeable Exhaust system (DCE). The system gives the diver the ability
to change from a small exhaust tee to a large exhaust tee. The regulator is supplied with both sets
of exhaust tees - Comfo-bite mouthpiece
