The world’s first regulator designed to exceed the proposed European standard in Auxiliary Emergency Breathing Systems. Bit of a mouthful isn’t it? But it’s important. An Auxiliary Emergency Breathing System (commonly known as an Octopus or alternate air source when connected to the primary regulator) is a fundamental part of any diver’s kit. The alternate air source provides an emergency backup demand valve in case of primary demand valve failure and acts as an alternative source of air for a dive buddy. The proposed minimum safety standards only require an alternate air source to be...

In 2013, the entire range of Apeks XTX regulators underwent a refresh. New cosmetics coupled with great new features continue to make Apeks the brand most chosen by serious divers. >> Exceeds the proposed European safety standards. >> Optional 5th port available for every model with the additional bonus of an integrated heat exchanger on the XTX200 and XTX100 first stages. >> Braided flexi-hoses are now standard on all models. These hoses are lighter in weight, more flexible and more durable. >> Following on the success of the anti-bacterial mouthpiece, anti-bacterial additive has now been...

Tek3 Regulator Set Apeks has developed unique first stages specifically for use on a twinset. Each first stage has three medium pressure ports and one high pressure port. They are hydrostatically over-balanced, cold water compatible and extremely robust. The TEK3 Is equally suitable for single cylinder or stage cylinder configurations, offering perfect snag-free hose positioning. >> Set includes two XTX50 second stages (the set can be used with all XTX second stages) >> The TEK3 utilizes all of the proven technology contained within the Apeks range of first stage regulators >> This new...

XTX Tungsten The XTX Tungsten is the flagship of the XTX range. It is built on the XTX200 platform but it is protected with a hard, durable PVD (Physical Vapor Deposition) finish. This tough-as-nails finish is better than traditional chrome plating and is made of high quality grades of Titanium, Zirconium and Chromium. The result is not only rich, but protects your investment from normal diving abuse. >> Uses the FSR first stage >> PVD finish >> Optional 5th port with heat exchanger >> All medium pressure ports are now 3/8” so that the reversible second stage can mount to either side of the...

XTX100 The XTX100 shares the same technical features as the XTX200 and offers exceptional performance >> Uses the FST type first stage >> Satin finish >> Optional 5th port with heat exchanger >> All medium pressure ports are now 3/8” so that the reversible second stage can mount to either side of the first stage >> Hydrostatic over-balancing first stage allows the medium pressure air in the hose to increase at a rate faster than ambient pressure resulting in superior performance >> Comes standard with an environmental dry kit which keeps water and contaminants out as well as makes the model...

DS4 / XTX50 DIN This first stage goes to the extreme and never disappoints making it the regulator of choice for technical divers around the world. >> The compact first stage is ideally suited for twin manifolds or for use on a single valve >> The one high-pressure port and four low-pressure ports are positioned for most common technical diving rigs >> The over-balanced first stage provides superior performance at deeper depths >> The first stage is dry-sealed preventing the entry of contaminants as well as ice formation on the main spring >> The XTX50 second stage is pneumatically balanced...

Interview with Garry Dallas Tell us about the Apeks Cave Expedition Myself and Niels Horemans spent a year planning our expedition to Mexico, continuing our quest to make a connection between the Calavera cenote and Grande cenote located in the town of Tulum. We also wanted to investigate several virgin cenotes, which we were given exclusive rights to explore by the local land owner. It was very important to us that we were able to survey the cenotes during our expedition, historically documenting our findings to show the links between each cenote system. It is a cave diver's dream, so we...
