Aqualung Legend Elite Limited Edition
The Aqualung Legend Elite Limited Edition gives divers unprecedented capabilities by providing perfect precision and enhanced ergonomics at your fingertips. Advanced divers appreciate the independent micro adjustments to fine-tune their own individual breathing preferences. The LEG3ND Limited Edition is extremely exclusive, with only 960 units made available. For the first 10 years of ownership, with a maintenance every 2 years, you will benefit for free spare parts contained in the maintenance kits for your regulator. The maintenance will be carried out by an authorised Aqualung workshop.
The LEGEND First Stage Features:
- Auto Closure Device (ACD) keeps the inlet shut to protect the first stage internal parts from contamination and corrosive water when the first stage is not connected to a cylinder valve. This:
- Preserves the internal lubrication
- Keeps the inlet filter clean and dry
- Safer for elevated percentages of oxygen
- Exceptional cold-water performance is achieved by modernizing Aqua Lung’s three anti-freeze properties:
- Where there’s no moisture, there’s no ice: The LEG3ND’s integrated dry chamber keeps inner components clean and dry by isolating them from the outside environment.
- Deep ribs create a large heat exchange surface area that helps to prevent ice from forming on the mechanism (+30% vs Glacia / +70% vs Legend 2)
- The new over-moulded cap delays ice forming over the external diaphragm
- Auto-Balanced (also known as Over-Balanced)
- Progressive increase of the working pressure to maintain optimum breathing efforts: Depending on the diver’s depth, the working pressure of the first stage is automatically elevated to counteract the increased breathing air density
- Ergonomically shaped YOKE screws made of a bi-material “Soft Grip” surface provide a better hold when installing or removing the first stage – especially with cold hands.
- Channelled YOKE screw to prevent water retention.
- Specialized ACD Dust cap attached to the regulator body to protect the inlet fitting and the ACD system from impacts or damage
- Perfectly positioned HP and MP ports to provide optimal hose routing
The Legend Limited Edition Second Stage Features:
- Gold Titadur Coated Bezel and Ring
- Black on Black Co-Molded Exhaust Tee
- Stainless Steel purge button
- A limited series number is engraved on the bottom of the purge button
- New front cover opening channels allow water to flow sideways over the diaphragm
- Radial openings to prevent freeflow when diving in stronger currents
- Openings widened to reduce peak inspiratory flow by an impressive 20%
- New over-moulded exhaust cover made of elastomer with a “soft touch” effect
- Overmolded air purge
- A wide surface area makes regulator purging easier
- The purge depth controller optimizes airflow with minimal effort
- Patented Comfobite mouthpiece reduces jaw fatigue and secures the second stage more comfortably.
- A detachable and reusable mouthpiece clamp allows a quick and simple tool-free mouthpiece change without plastic waste.
- The enlarged heat exchanger helps to prevent the freezing of the second stage mechanism
- Air channel deflector
- Directs the air flow evenly during the inhalation phase
- A streamlined bi-material deflector lowers the exhalation effort
- Flexible and lightweight Aqua Flex hose with dual protectors
