DESCRIPTION

Whats in the box:First and Second Stage Regulators and Low Pressure Hose

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 the air 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 material that 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 has lowered the drop of intermediate pressure upon inhalation and has kept this drop at 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.

      My wife got this from me as a gift and she fell in love with it. It is easy to regulate air flow and once she changed the mouth piece she says it's perfect.

      Comments about Cressi Ellipse Black MC5 Regulator:

      6 months after purchase and about 50 dives later - (don't ask me how) the second stage LP seat felt out (did never open the unit) could put it back in and when I tried to adjust the (primary second stage)the octopus(same model) suddenly started free flowing, to me this means that the high pressure seat is worn, I live in Japan there is no Cressi dealer available so I will have to send it to the US for service all is just hazel especially after such a short time.

      I a have a total of three units and wonder if the other 2 also soon start free flowing...

        I teach a variety of scuba classes and I purchased these to let the students get comfortable with a quality regulator. I have enjoyed this regulator myself and have had solid responses from my classes.

        It fits comfortably. I have done over 100 dives with it. If you are at certain angles it doesn't allow you to breath easily.
