Description

Apeks Egress Octopus

The Apeks Egress Octopus is a high-performance alternate air source designed to complement Apeks regulators while providing divers with a reliable, low-drag backup in emergency situations. Built with innovation and ergonomics in mind, this octopus features a unique low-profile design that reduces underwater drag and keeps the regulator close to the body, ensuring it stays out of the way during normal diving activities. Its compact form makes it ideal for technical, recreational, and rescue-oriented diving setups.

Central to its performance is the pneumatically balanced valve, which ensures smooth, easy breathing even when the octopus is positioned upside down. This makes the Egress Octopus a dependable alternate air source for both experienced divers and novices in emergency scenarios. The regulator is designed with a unique 120° angle between the mouthpiece and the hose, optimising the orientation for sharing air efficiently with a buddy. This thoughtful design allows divers to perform air-sharing maneuvers with ease, maintaining safety and comfort under pressure.

The Egress Octopus is equipped with a large purge button that can be operated easily in any orientation, allowing for quick clearing of water or debris from the second stage. Its 36-inch high visibility yellow hose distinguishes it clearly from the primary regulator hose, making it easy to locate during an out-of-air situation. Bright colors enhance visibility and ensure that the octopus can be quickly identified in panic situations.

Versatility is a key feature of the Apeks Egress Octopus. The hose can be routed over either shoulder, allowing divers to position it according to their personal preference or dive configuration. While the octopus is suitable for cold water diving when used with any Apeks environmentally sealed first stage, it is recommended for warm water use only if paired with an unsealed first stage.

With its combination of high visibility, smooth performance, and ergonomic low-profile design, the Apeks Egress Octopus provides divers with a reliable, easy-to-use, and efficient alternate air source that integrates seamlessly with Apeks regulator systems.
