Aqua Lung Mikron Regulator - Discontinued
$1,010.00 AUD
Mikron Regulator
Lighter than air...no, but you get the idea: the Mikron is the smallest and lightest regulator in the Aqua Lung collection. Equipped with our patented auto-closure device plus a pneumatically balanced second stage, this small but mighty regulator lets you float comfortably through baggage claim and the deep blue alike.
Features
1st Stage:
- Travel-Ready. The reduced size and weight makes the Mikron the ideal choice for travelers
- Auto-Closure Device. Prevents corrosive water out of the first-stage inlet by automatically closing as the core is removed from the cylinder valve. This prevents internal lubrication from washing away and is safer for higher proportions of oxygen
- Yoke or DIN. Available in yoke (3,300psi/232 bar max.) or DIN (4,350psi/300 bar max.)
- HP/MP Ports and "T" Shape. 2 HP ports (7/16”) and 4 MP ports (3/8”), perfectly oriented in a “T” shape for streamlined hose positioning, reduced exhalation effort, and sending bubbles out of your field of view
- Braided Hose. A braided hose provides flexibility, comfort and excellent transportability
- Standard Aqua Lung Parts. Since it uses standard Aqua Lung components, your local dive shop can more easily service it
2nd Stage:
- Pneumatically Balanced. Pneumatically balanced for smooth, easy breathing
- Comfo-Bite. Comfo-Bite mouthpiece is soft yet sturdy and reduces jaw fatigue with its unique palate bridge
- Optimize Your Opening Effort. With the “Mini/Maxi” adjustment knob, you can increase the opening effort, ideal for avoiding freeflow at the surface, or lower the inhalation effort, reducing the work of breathing
