Aqualung is synonymous with the modern scuba regulator. Over 70 years of innovation have gone into making scuba regulators that are safer and easier to use than others on the market. An Aqualung scuba regulator offers you comfort, ease of breathing, control and peak performance. Aqualung and the scuba regulator share a rich history, and now is your chance to play a part. Choose the right scuba regulator to ensure your next dive is comfortable and safe. Aqualung has developed diving regulators built for new and experienced divers, as well as for a range of diving conditions. Since 1943, Aqualung has been the expert in scuba regulators. Now you can carry on the spirit of that first dive with an Aqualung dive regulator that will perfectly suit your diving needs.
The Mikron is the smallest and lightest weight regulator in the Aqualung line. Weighing in at just 26 oz (751g), this regulator is perfect for the travelling diver. Even more amazing is the performance is not sacrificed by the extreme compactness of the regulator. Its balanced first and second stages produce excellent breathing performance. Compact dimensions and low weight blend comfort with a unique diving experience. A braided hose, weighing less than 5 oz (141.7g), provides flexibility, comfort and excellent packability.
The first stage is a balanced diaphragm type that sports 2 HP ports (7/16) and 4 MP ports (3/8). The reduced size and weight make the Mikron the ideal choice for travellers and young adults. The balanced diaphragm first stage, by the nature of its design, is environmentally sealed and provides excellent, consistent performance. The T-shape of the first stage optimizes the location of the 4 MP ports and 2 HP ports. Uses parts that are common to other Aqualung models for easier servicing. Compatible with up to 40% O2 right out of the box. Now the Mikron comes equipped with the unique Aqualungs Auto-Closure Device (ACD). With the ACD, divers don't have to worry that water or silt will enter the first stage. Auto Closure Device (ACD) - keeps corrosive water out of the first stage inlet by automatically closing as the Legend is removed from the cylinder valve. This prevents internal lubrication from washing away. Safer for elevated percentages of oxygen.
Pneumatically-balanced second stage results in smooth, easy breathing. The second stage has an adjustment knob that allows the diver to optimize the opening effort. In the "Mini" position, the opening effort is increased, which is ideal for avoiding free flows at the surface. In the "Maxi" position, the inhalation effort is lowered, reducing the work of breathing. Equipped with Aqualung's patented standard Comfo-Bite mouthpiece, spare small mouthpiece, along with a reusable mouthpiece clamp. Regulator comes with an owner's manual.
Whether you own a Mikron regulator or not, this travel-friendly octopus is the one you want to take on your next dive trip. Pneumatically-balanced octopus is ideally suited for over-balanced first stages. An inhalation effort adjustment knob allows you to desensitize the unit while it is stowed for the dive preventing unwanted free flow. High visibility 39" (99cm) braided, yellow hose and high visibility yellow cover makes it easy to locate in an emergency. Regulator ha a silicone mouthpiece with ergonomic bite wings and weighs 5.11 oz (145g).
