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.
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.
Featuring the same freeze-resistant technology enjoyed by the whole MTX-R range, the MTX-RC resists free-flows in even the coldest temperatures, while offering the user the additional flexibility to adjust the settings for a more comfortable breathe in less extreme environments.
All this is achieved using an innovative first stage design that protects the regulator from freezing and a full set of user controls on the second stage to adjust the breathing performance based on the diver’s individual needs. Includes a tactical style messenger bag to keep your regulators safe on your travels. Perfectly sized for a laptop, it’s also your new work bag!
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
- 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.
