The Ellipse uses an elliptical housing for the second-stage regulator which is made from hi-tech polymers. All the internal components of the Ellipse are a dependable high performance downstream valve design. Once the valve has open theair is channeled by injection to the liquid silicone mouthpiece creating a venturi-effect enhancing the performance. On the top of the housing there is a flow deviator that acts on the Venturi effect, with dive/pre-dive switch.
The Balanced 1st stage MC5 Hyper-balanced Diaphragm Actuated 1st stage has a lightweight body covered by a protective techno-polymer elastomer shell. The regulator is equipped with four low pressure and two high pressure ports. Internally the 1st stage is coated with an anti-friction anti-corrosion materialthat reduces resistance and allows the critical components to move freely. This makes the components perform and last longer between annual servicing and increases performance.
Research on internal air passages and incorporating a special assist chamber haslowered the drop of intermediate pressure upon inhalation and has kept this dropat a minimum, guaranteeing higher performance in any situation. Hyper-balancing allows for an increase of the intermediate pressure at maximum depths and when experiencing low pressure in the Scuba cylinder, offering higher performance at maximum depths and during the ascent phase of the dive.

Comments about Cressi Cressi Ellipse Steel MC5 Regulator:
This regulator is excellent, light weigh, very easy to breathe and looks nice too...I've tested other regulators even more expensive ones and this one is just above anything you could found in it's price range and even can compete with some above it's price range...
