Apeks Ocea Regulator & Octopus

Apeks Ocea is the world’s first ocean plastic negative regulator.

A fabulous cold water regulator that is also perfect for travel due to its lightweight!

The Ocea is the first of its kind – an environmentally-conscious regulator made from lead-free brass, recycled materials and bio-plastics, manufactured in a solar-powered facility. It’s back in stock as a great value stage 3 set.

Based on the XL4+, every single material and process was reconsidered to create the most eco-sensitive scuba diving regulator in the world. The Ocea is a truly game-changing regulator that removes five times its own weight in plastic from the environment through our partnership with PlasticBank.

OCEA Features and Benefits
• Recycled polymers made from up to 70% post consumer waste (black components)
• Bioplastic plastic parts made from non petroleum based sources.
• Trivalent chrome plating uses less harmful chemicals and is kinder to the environment.
• Eco brass is lead free, easier to recycle and has a higher tensile strength than traditional brass.

First Stage:

• Compact machined first stage based on the expedition tested Apeks DS4 platform.
• 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.
• With 2 HP ports and 4MP ports.

Second Stage:

• Compact and lightweight second stage improves comfort and helps reduce jaw fatigue on long duration dives.
• High performance pneumatically balanced lever operated poppet valve.
• Large, over moulded self-flushing and controllable purge button.
• Ergonomic Venturi lever is easy to use and locate.
• Flexible nylon braided hose has better cold water performance than a traditional rubber hose.
• Standard metallic hose connection for interchangeability.
• Comfo-bite mouthpiece has a unique bridge that fits across the upper palate and does not require bite pressure to stay
in place.
• Re-useable mouthpiece clip makes it simple to change mouthpieces in the field.
• Durable and flexible rubber exhaust tee provides excellent bubble diversion.
