Apeks regulatorsNew XTX RegulatorsFor 2013, the entire range of XTX regulators has undergone a refresh. New cosmeticscoupled with great new features will continue to make Apeks the brand mostchosen by serious divers.• Fresh new look across the entire range• Optional 5th port available for every model with the additional bonus of an integratedheat exchanger on the XTX200 and XTX100 first stages.• Braided flexi hoses are now standard on all models. These hoses are lighter weight,more flexible and more durable• Following on the success of the anti-bacterial mouthpiece, anti-bacterial additive hasnow been molded into most second stage components. This is especially useful withshared equipment by providing added protection against bacteria.• The purge buttons are now larger and easier to operate. A 2-stage progressive purgeis used. Press the purge on the side for a lower flow rate, useful where more controlis required such as filling lift bags etc, then press in the center for the full effect of thepurge, i.e. when regulator clearing etc.• A new larger venturi lever has been added with a soft touch rubber grip, which makesit easier to locate and use.Tungsten XTXThe XTX Tungsten is built upon the XTX200 platform but with a truly unique, addedfeature: it is protected with a hard, durable PVD (Physical Vapor Deposition) finish.This tough-as-nails finish is better than traditional chrome plating. The coatingis made of high quality grades of Titanium, Zirconium and Chromium. The result isnot only rich, but protects your investment from normal diving abuse.• Features the innovative Diver Changeable Exhaust (DCE) System allowing the diverto change from a large exhaust tee to a smaller exhaust tee.

Apeks Buoyancy compensatorsBlack IcePictured here withoptional knifeThe Apeks Black Ice is a rugged, weight-integrated, back inflation BC designed with theadvanced diver in mind. Despite its heavy duty construction, it provides amazing comfort,fit and stability thanks to its Wrapture harness system (pat. pend.). Due to the modularnature of this BC, a custom fit can be achieved through any of the three sizes. The Black Iceis offered in one color only, you guessed it, black.• Wrapture harness system (pat. pend.) – Using patented swivel shoulder buckles and a proprietary,ultra-thin back plate, the Wrapture provides unsurpassed comfort and stability. Wraptureprevents the BC from “riding-up” on the surface. Out of the water, the Wrapture keeps the cylinderclose to your center of gravity and transfers the weight to your hips. The result is the ability tostand up straight with a cylinder that is perfectly vertical.• Because of the multiple size settings at the top of the shoulders as well as either side of thewaistband, a custom fit can be achieved through any one of 3 sizes.• SureLock II Mechanical Weight Release System (patented) – provides a safe, single-pull release.Inserting weight is as simple as insert and “click”. With SureLock, your weights are secure in theBC. Once engaged, the only way to release the weight is to pull on the handle.• Dual channel weight pockets in front along with non-ditchable weight pockets in back meanthat all sizes can hold up to 42 lbs. (19kg)• The Black Ice can be rigged for twin cylinders using the optional twin cylinder kit (p/n 427106).• There are 4 dump valves in all, one in each corner. 3 are proprietary flat valves are very streamlinedand effective. The dump valve on the upper left is the rapid exhaust valve found at the top ofthe Powerline inflator.• The Powerline inflator assembly boasts one of the fastest inflation rates in the industry. Thisenvironmentally sealed unit has integrated clips to keep the l.p. inflator hose tucked in tight.• The air cell has several pass-throughs that allow easy air transfer from left to right• A triple bladder retraction system is used to pull in the sides of the bladder during deflation. Thiskeeps unit streamlined and reduces drag.• The left pocket is a fold down design with deep capacity, perfect for an extra mask.• The right pocket is a large utility pocket secured with a robust zipper• Knife attachment points are found on the left pocket flap which will accommodate many of theSqueeze Lock knives.
