STATUS
STATUS..... REASSURANCE THAT YOUR REGULATOR IS AT ITS
OPTIMUM
Safety first
Safety is of paramount importance to Apeks. The Status electronic
first stage gives divers the option, for the first time ever, to visually
check the condition of the first stage of the regulator using an
integrated LCD display before actually commencing a dive. A correct
medium pressure is essential if your regulator is to perform as it
should.
The condition of the first stage is assessed by an internal micro-
electronic computer, which checks the medium pressure during the
initial opening of the cylinder valve. Information is displayed on an
LCD screen protected and housed in the dry sealed chamber.
Micro-electronics are both extremely accurate and reliable. Apeks
has developed the micro-electronics of the Status specifically for the
extreme underwater environment of SCUBA diving.
