Apeks XL4 OCEA Mint Yoke

The Ocea is the first of its kind – an environmentally-conscious regulator made from recycled materials and bio-plastics, manufactured in a solar-powered facility.

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.

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.
• 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
