WARNING : These regulators fitted with special connections

should be used only with complementary equipment (tank valves,

tanks, pressure gauges, etc.) designed and prepared for use with

an oxygen-enriched mixture. These items are marked Nitrox/O2.

WARNING: If the regulator that you use is fitted with a yoke or

DIN connection, it is designed for use only with compressed

breathing air (21% oxygen and 79% nitrogen) which meets the

EN 12021 standard. DO NOT USE this equipment with other

mixtures or with gases containing more than 21% oxygen.

Disregarding this rule could result in serious injury or death

caused by fire or explosion.

Every Nitrox/O2 regulator is assembled in a clean workshop, using

compatible components and special lubricants. It is important to

maintain the interior of the regulator in a clean state. Breathing air

used in the production of a mixture should be oxygen compatible

and double filtered with a hydrocarbon content not greater than 0.1

mg/m3. Your Apeks / Aqualung technical specialist should be able to

help you determine if the breathing air he/she supplied meets these

criteria.
