Octopus Set – 1st Stage R2 + 2nd Stage TEC2

Elite recreational balanced diaphragm configuration with swivel turret and dry chamber. Includes R2 TEC first stage, two latest generation TEC2 second stages with DFS technology, compact pressure gauge and carrying bag.

The Tecline R2 TEC2 OCTO + SPG Regulator Set, available on DIR-STORE, represents the ultimate combination for the advanced recreational diver seeking maximum breathing comfort, total protection against freezing, and impeccable hose routing. This top-of-the-line package combines the R2 TEC balanced diaphragm first stage – equipped with a 360° swivel turret and a sealed dry chamber – with the superior performance of the latest generation TEC2 second stages. Thanks to the movable turret and the advanced fluid dynamics of the second stages, this system eliminates mouthpiece tension and minimizes inspiratory effort, offering an exceptionally smooth diving experience even in very cold waters.

Technical Features:

• R2 TEC First Stage (Balanced Diaphragm, Swivel Turret, and Dry Chamber): Constructed from solid chrome-plated marine brass, the R2 TEC combines the advantages of a balanced diaphragm with the ergonomics of a 360° rotating turret. Its 4 LP ports are positioned on the turret to allow for smooth and tension-free hose routing. The sealed dry chamber completely isolates the internal moving components from the external environment, acting as a total anti-freeze and anti-sediment barrier. The layout is completed by 2 symmetrical HP outlets (DIN 300 bar connection).
• Dual TEC2 Second Stage (DFS Technology and Ultra-Comfort): The pneumatically balanced TEC2 second stages implement the innovative Direct Flow System (DFS). This special architecture optimizes the internal gas fluid dynamics, drastically reducing the overall work of breathing (WOB) at any depth and offering incredibly soft and natural breathing.
• Mechanical Shielding and Protection: The structural polymer casing of the second stage is frontally shielded by a solid stainless steel ring to resist strong stresses and accidental impacts. The internal metal parts benefit from a protective anti-adhesive Teflon coating to maximize longevity.
• Flow Control and Adjustments: Both second stages feature a lever for manual adjustment of the Venturi effect, essential for preventing accidental free-flow of the regulator when not in use (such as on the octopus around the neck). They also include an external micrometric knob to calibrate the initial breathing effort.
• High Visibility Octopus and Hose Layout: For perfect buddy safety, the emergency second stage (TEC2 OCTO) is instantly identifiable thanks to its yellow front cover and dedicated 0.90 m hose of the same color. The primary regulator is equipped with a classic 0.70 m black hose.
• SPG 52 mm Technical Pressure Gauge: The kit includes a professional and compact analog pressure gauge, with a robust 52 mm diameter metal casing and a highly legible dial. It comes paired with an 0.80 m heavy black rubber high-pressure (HP) hose.
