CRESSI Compact Octopus Regulator.

Octopus Compact uses the same casing as the Second Stage Compact model made from special hi-tech polymers, the only difference being the yellow front cover.

New Extremely simple and less complicated single shell second stage made from ABS and elastomer, compact small size (6 cm in diameter), Very light weight (145 g). Its mechanism and development are perfectly planned to obtain the minimum number of components and very strong.
It is a smart buy due to its combination of performance, reliability, price and cost of maintenance.
It is perfect for uses requiring maximum reliability and ideal as a travel regulator, given its lightness combined with the first stage MC5.
CE Standardization Annex B EN250/2014_A>10°C
It is also perfect for rental in diving centers, as a work regulator with AC2, and as an addition to the high range MC9.
The specific calibration of the inhalation mechanism slightly changes the air delivery as compared to the Ellipse series; the feel and sensitivity of these models is exquisite, with an abundant flow without needing to exploit the Venturi effect.
This feature provides a limited tendency to free flow on the surface and when positioning the equipment in the water, ideal for schools and rentals, octopus and double regulator.
However, the results of the features place it beyond regulators of highest range.
Asymmetrical perforation in the front cap. The water flow starts to push the diaphragm anti-clockwise so that its retraction is perfectly flat and the cam progressively descends perpendicularly, independent of conditions (currents, brisk movements, facial position, etc.).
Exhalation effort particularly reduced without the need to minimize the thickness of the diaphragm. The design of the membrane retention system directs the 100% channeled flow towards the nozzles of the bow, taking advantage of a strong Venturi effect.
Also, it works to direct the bubbles away from the diver’s field of vision.
Embedded membrane to avoid water infiltration in case of brisk turns or jumps to enter the water.
Practically integrated purge button, between 80-400% larger than that of any other regulator on the market to facilitate purging, especially for beginning divers.

SCUBAPRO MK25 EVO DIN 300 First Stage Regulator.

The SCUBAPRO MK25 EVO first stage lets you enjoy an ultra-fast breathing response, instant delivery of air on demand, great sensitivity and extra-high airflow regardless of how cold the water is.
Air-balanced flow-through piston design provides constant and effortless airflow unaffected by depth, tank pressure, or breathing rate.

SCUBAPRO’s exclusive patented Extended Thermal Insulating System (XTIS) makes this possible by fully isolates the mechanical elements of the first stage from the cold, increasing its freezing resistance 30 percent over previous versions of the MK25 without compromising breathing performance. This makes the MK25 EVO the ultimate do-it-all first stage for all water temperatures.
Two high pressure and five high-flow low-pressure ports on a swivel turret maximize hose routing options.
External intermediate pressure adjustment enables technicians to fine-tune performance quickly and easily.

SCUBAPRO MK25 EVO DIN 300 First Stage Regulator Features

• Air balanced flow-through piston in a chrome-plated brass body provides constant and effortless airflow unaffected by depth, tank pressure, or breathing rate.
• Patented XTIS (Extended Thermal Insulating System) fully isolates the mechanical elements from the cold, increasing freezing resistance 30 percent over the previous MK25 without compromising breathing performance. Key insulation system components are visible in blue.
• New spring insulating coating, body-insulating bushing, anti-freeze cap, bigger body and cap thread all work in concert with the XTIS to improve cold-water performance.
• Anti-freeze protection radically increases breathing reliability when diving in the most extreme water temperatures.
• Two opposing high-pressure ports allow the first stage to be positioned either up or down.
• Five high-flow low-pressure ports on a swivel turret maximize hose routing options.
• External intermediate pressure adjustment enables technicians to fine-tune performance quickly and easily.
• Available in either 3364psi/232bar INT or 4350psi/300bar DIN configurations.
• Weight: INT 232 (27.9 oz / 790g): or DIN 300 (20.1oz / 570g).

SCUBAPRO MK2 EVO DIN 300 First Stage Regulator.

For decades the classic downstream piston MK2 has been diving’s go-to workhorse first stage. It is reliable, easy to use and won’t put too big a dent in your pocketbook, and now it’s more versatile than ever.
The new SCUBAPRO MK2 EVO comes with the patent-pending Extended Thermal Insulating System (XTIS) that lets you enjoy an ultra-fast breathing response and maximum airflow with minimal effort — regardless of how cold the water is. The XTIS makes this possible by fully isolating the mechanical elements of the first stage from the cold, increasing freezing resistance by an average of 50 percent over the current MK2.
The MK2 EVO is also more compact than the standard MK2, yet has a bigger piston that pumps out 15 percent more airflow from a smaller package. So you can expect top-notch breathing performance whether you’re reef diving in the warm Caribbean or wreck diving in the chilly Great Lakes.

SCUBAPRO MK2 EVO DIN 300 First Stage Regulator Features

• Classic downstream piston design features a chrome-plated brass body with one high pressure and four low pressure ports.
• Patent pending XTIS (Extended Thermal Insulating System) fully isolates the mechanical elements from the cold, increasing freezing resistance by an average of 50 percent.
• Additional internal technical improvements include a new spring insulating bushing and coating, a new insulating piston bushing, a new insulating sleeve and a new antifreeze cap, all of which contribute to the increase in freezing resistance.
• Oversized piston provides better breathing performance by increasing airflow by 15 percent.
• Smaller chrome-plated brass body results in a lighter, more compact first stage.
• Stainless steel removable orifice allows for easier maintenance while extending regulator life.
• Available in either 3364psi/232bar INT or 4350psi/300bar DIN configurations.
• Meets new EN250-2014 standards for cold-water breathing performance.
• Weight: INT 230 – 24.9oz/706g; /DIN 300 – 17.1oz/485g.
• Airflow at 2900psi: 2600 l/min – 92 SCFM.

SCUBAPRO A700 Second Stage Regulator.

Precision handcrafted full metal construction and design, using modern technologies to craft an exceptional breathing regulator. Unparalleled breathing performance at any depth, any temperature, in any position.

The SCUBAPRO A700 Second Stage is ideal for cold water diving with a highly polished metal body the regulator also stands out at the dive site. Typically, most of regulators made from plastic, which makes them lightweight and durable but is a very poor material and dissipating heat. The A700’s body made from metal, which allows heat to move away from the internal mechanism, reducing the chance of the components freezing and causing a possible free flow. To keep the weight down the regulator is very compact making it very comfortable in the mouth and barely noticeable. A VIVA control knob allows the airflow around the inside of the regulators body to be adjusted to limit the chance of free flow at the surface. A cracking resistance control knob is useful when using the regulator as a backup or stage regulator as it allows the effort required to operate the regulator to be increased. This reduces the chance of a regulator that is not in use from free flowing. The A700 Second Stage is perfect for cold-water divers as well as those looking for something that looks a little bit different.

SCUBAPRO A700 Second Stage Regulator Features

• Air-balanced valve smoothes out the inhalation effort at varying depths and supply pressures.
• Rugged full-metal case, front cover and valve housing (barrel) are able to withstand years of aggressive diving.
• Metal construction enables the use of a larger diaphragm inside a compact casing, increasing breathing sensitivity.
• User controls include a diver-adjustable inhalation effort knob and coaxial-flow Venturi-Initiated Vacuum Assist (VIVA) lever.
• Super-flow hose features an oversized bore that allows more air to flow on each inhalation.
• Ultra-comfortable orthodontic mouthpiece is easy to grip yet doesn’t inhibit airflow.
• Weight: 265g / 9.3oz.
• Air flow at 200 bar: 2000 l/min – 71 SCFM.
• Maximum low pressure: 14 bar / 203 psi.
