This regulator has the typical BSP G5/8 DIN connector that will fit 200 Bar and 300 Bar valves. It will NOT fit the M26X2 Nitrox/Oxygen valve outlet mandated ONLY in the European Union by the EN 144-3:2003 standard.

Dive Rite XT2 O2/Stage Reg Package is suitable for Oxygen Service without the need for additional preparation.

Details

Assembled using oxygen compatible materials and lubricants, the Dive Rite XT2 O2/Stage Reg Package is suitable for Oxygen Service without the need for additional preparation. The Dive Rite Deco Regulator is a compact, lightweight option for an accelerated decompression regulator. A value priced flow-by piston DIN first stage and adjustable second stage delivers performance tuned for shallow water decompression. An orthodontic long bite mouthpiece reduces jaw fatigue on longer deco obligations. This regulator has the typical BSP G5/8 DIN connector that will fit 200 Bar and 300 Bar valves. The package includes a Mini-SPG displaying both PSI and BAR, S/S bolt snap with hose clip retainer, DIN cap, and comes assembled by Dive Rite with a green faceplate cover and green {40 in | 1 m} hose. The flex hose makes hose management easy and comes standard with the O2 Deco Regulator setup.

Because of the small piston first stage, the Dive Rite Deco Regulator is ultra reliable but is not intended for use deeper than {50 ft | 15m} on an appropriate gas mix. It is not compatible with the M26X2 Nitrox/Oxygen valve outlet mandated ONLY in the European Union by the EN 144-3:2003 standard. We also note that this first stage is NOT compatible with MiFlex Brand HP hoses.

Warning

According to our suppliers, their Nitrox Ready and Oxygen Service products are compatible with oxygen and factory cleaned for use with compressed gases in excess of 23.5% oxygen. Nonetheless, the 'clean state' of this equipment applies only prior to initial use. Thereafter, periodic inspection and cleaning are a necessity. You must meticulously follow the recommendations of the US Department of Transportation (DOT), Compressed Gas Association (CGA), and other federal/state/local agencies, plus your dive training agency for equipment maintenance, handling, storage, labeling, filling, transport and use of compressed gases. Oxygen-related fires and explosions can result in serious injury or death. Ultimately, you must make the final decision to assume all risks associated with the use of any compressed gases, including those in excess of 23.5% oxygen.

Tek Tip

Regulators and Required-stop Accelerated Decompression

Open-circuit technical divers often switch to breathing pure oxygen or a very rich advanced Nitrox mix such as 50%, to substantially reduce their required-stop times as compared to decompressing using just their bottom mix, called accelerated decompression. The depth where the gas switch occurs is relatively shallow, typically {20 fsw | 6 msw} for 100% oxygen or { 70 fsw | 21 msw} for 50% Nitrox. For profiles with very deep and/or very long bottom times, the diver can further reduce their required-stop times with multiple gas switches during the ascent, sometimes called multi-staged accelerated decompression (not to be confused with regulator stages). The depths where the first gas switch occurs in multi-staged deco is relatively deep, typically {100 fsw | 30 msw} using a sport Nitrox mixture and for extreme exposures often the first switch is around {190 fsw | 57 msw} using normoxic Trimix.

Divers on decompression stops are normally at rest and decompression gas regulators are typically configured with only one second stage regulator. Required-stop decompression in general is not an activity that demands high-performance regulators, although it can be in physical overhead environments where the diver must also continue swimming towards an exit. The shallower accelerated decompression depths when using very oxygen rich breathing gases are not at all demanding of regulator performance, almost any regulator would do in theory, but the very rich decompression gas requires the regulator be specifically designated as suitable for use with pure oxygen. Unfortunately, most manufacturers only describe their regulators as suitable for Nitrox mixtures to 40% maximum.

Dive Gear Express offers several specialty decompression regulators all designed and qualified for use with breathing gas mixtures containing up to 100% oxygen, but each suitable for use in differing maximum depth ranges based on their performance. The Dive Rite O2 Regulator is suitable to a maximum depth of { 50 fsw | 15 msw}. The DGX Gears O2 Regulator is suitable to a depth of {130 fsw | 40 msw}. The Mares O2/Stage Regulators are suitable for use to a depth of {160 fsw | 50 msw}. The Dive Rite O2/Stage Regulator and the Apeks O2/Stage Regulator depth limits exceed {330 fsw | 100 msw}. For reasons of familiarity and ease of maintenance irrespective of cost, divers will sometimes choose to use deco regulator versions similar their primary even though their performance exceeds the demands of required-stop accelerated decompression.

Regardless of the capabilities of your regulator, the maximum depth of your dive is also limited by the amount of oxygen in the breathing gas and the partial pressure of oxygen at that depth.
