Apeks - MTX-R SIDEMOUNT REGULATOR SET

The Apeks sidemount regulator kit delivers the necessary hardware and accessories for sidemount diving, along with two MTX-R regulators. Everything a diver needs for a sidemount breathing system is found in this kit!

The MTX-R sidemount set is a super tough, rugged, high performance, go anywhere sidemount regulator configuration designed to meet the rigours of cold water and extreme sidemount diving. The MTX-R is highly reliable and also very easy to service out in the field which makes it an ideal choice for the expedition and exploration diver.

Features & Benefits:

The MTX-R has excellent cold water performance and has a greatly reduced risk of free flow. This has been achieved by improving several areas, including an innovative endcap and environmental diaphragm, a forged 1st stage body offering maximum thermal preference, a ribbed diaphragm clamp and a redesigned & enlarged heat exchanger on the 2nd stage with metal incorporated into the front cover design.

What’s in the box:

  • 2 ea. MTX-R DIN 1st stages with 5 port swivel turrets
  • 2 ea. MTX-R 2nd stages
  • 210cm double swivel hose

  • Setup illustration, CD manual and quick start guide

Features:

  • First Stage available in yoke or DIN configuration.
  • Suitable for cold water use (below 10°C / 50°F)
  • 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.
  • Over-moulded innovative endcap and environmental diaphragm, a forged 1st stage body offering maximum thermal performance
  • .The 5th 3/8” UNF 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.
  • Tested for Octopus use - EN250A 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.

  • Reversible second stage for either a left or right-hand gas supply.
  • Hard wearing, satin chrome.
  • All gas contact moulded parts are produced using an active protection additive that kills MRSA, protects against E-Coli, bacteria and fungi, and is also very effective against viruses, mold, yeast and algae.
  • Large heat exchanger fitted to help reduce second stage freezing.
