Questions about this item:
Shopper Hello,
Does this set have a 'Yoke' type 1st stage?
and Can I change hose to standart 'miflex' type without any adapter or converter?
Thank you!
TARA J This has a Yoke 1st stage, but I used a DIN adapter for 44 dives in the Red Sea out of Hurghada, Egypt, and another handful in Croatia without a problem. I had one slow leak one time with the DIN tank, and still had more air at the end of our dive than my partner, so it was REALLY slow. I don't see how it would be simple to change the hose to miflex, but I don't miflex... sorry.

STEVE C The regulator comes standard with a yoke-type 1st stage, and yes, it has standard HP and LP ports, so you can change to whatever hoses you want.

KATHERINE N Ours came with a Yoke type connector. You may be able to get adapters if you want a DIN connector. Ask your Leisure Pro Sales Rep to upgrade the hose to the miflex. I don't think it needs any adapter.
We have used our AT 400 Ion regulators for two years, and really like them. Mine has performed flawlessly. But last year we found out my husband's was recalled when we noticed a problem during a pre-dive equipment check. Luckily another diver had an extra regulator that he graciously lent my husband. We had it serviced, and it has worked fine since.
PAUL C It does have a Yoke 1st stage. I am not sure about Miflex hoses. If they have a standard thread it should be no problem.
MARC O Yes, it's a standard yoke on the first stage, and standard connectors on the hose. You should be able to swap to any type of hose without an issue.
Shopper Can the user diassemble this reg without tools ie. unscrew ring and remove purge cap and diaphram for cleaning?
RALEIGH B Yes. The ring around the purge button unscrews easily allowing access to clean. Only trouble I've had with the regulator is the surface flow switch comes off. If you don't notice before you jump in, you'll swallow a couple gallons before getting back in the boat to find it in the fear bag. Otherwise its a great regulator, and easy to breath at 140'+
MICHAEL A yes, it just unscrews.
WALTER H After I dropped off the regulator to a service shop in our area I was notified that a special tool is required to service this reg. I always like to do my own work so I know it is done properly but in this case I let a shop that I trust service this reg. Thanks for asking.
Shopper What's the max operating depth for this reg?
LeisurePro S Aeris regs are CE certified to a max operating limit of 165 feet. For deeper dives, check out OMS' Deep Performance Regulator.

The pneumatically balanced demand valve along with a highly responsive design allows this regulator to provide a high volume of airflow with even the slightest inhalation effort, making it seem nearly effortless to breathe at any depth. All in a second stage barely wider than the mouthpiece. The ION means business as it comes equipped for any type of dive conditions, cold or warm.
The Aeris 400 ION uses a high performance over-balanced diaphragm first stage with environmental seal and the added protection of DVT (Dry Valve Technology). DVT (Dry Valve Technology) is one of the most significant innovations in regulator technology in recent history. DVT is a fully automatic valve that protects your first stage regulator's internal components against the harsh water environment in which we work and play; with no impact on the regulator's first-class performance.
DVT provides an "automatic extra layer of protection" from environmental contamination such as dirt, dust, sand, spray, dripping and pooled water, or even a "flash flood" in a rinse tank. DVT improves performance and reduces service costs associated with corrosion of critical internal components, bacteria, hose deterioration, and damaged gauges and computers. The first stage has two HP and 4 LP ports, weighs 29 oz (822 g). The all chrome plated marine brass first stage regulator is an over balanced diaphragm design which is environmentally sealed. The diaphragm membrane transmits the pressure changes to the internal mechanism eliminating the need for the surrounding water to enter the intricate mechanism. The benefit of this type of first stage design is that none of the internal parts are exposed to contaminants such as salt, sand, chlorine or pool acids. These environmental contaminants cause corrosion and mineral deposits to form on the internal mechanism deteriorating regulator performance.
The ION is AERIS' smallest and most streamlined second stage ever with an outer ring diameter of only 2.3" (5.8 cm) and 5.4 oz (153 g) weight. The ION's second stage is made from an ABS/Polycarbonate composite blend of materials making the ION both extremely rugged and lightweight, reducing jaw fatigue on extended dives. The extremely lightweight cover ring is machined from a solid piece of aircraft aluminum, and then hard anodized to prevent corrosion. The ION means business as it comes equipped for any type of dive conditions, cold or warm. Following the rules of the sea, or should we say the rules of the C: Compact - Comfortable - Customizable; the ION is a diver's dream. The ION is classified as being suitable for use with nitrox breathing gas mixtures containing up to 40% oxygen by volume without the need for special preparation, cleaning or component parts. Second stage comes with a patented orthodontic mouthpiece with high density bite tabs, venturi control switch and diver adjustable inhalation. Aeris regulators come with a 24 month limited warranty.
