Atomic Aquatics B2X Scuba Diving Regulator
The B2X combines a coated brass first stage with titanium second-stage components. Automatic Flow Control adjusts the airflow as depth changes, while the rapid adjustment control and Comfort Swivel add practical comfort and handling features to the black-finished setup.
Features and benefits
- DLC-coated brass first stage. Diamond-Like Carbon over chrome plating adds a hard protective finish to the brass body, helping resist wear and corrosion.
- Balanced Jet Seat piston. The balanced high-flow piston regulates the supply as cylinder pressure changes, supporting a consistent breathing response.
- Balanced second stage. Pneumatic balancing reduces the force needed to open the demand valve, helping the second stage respond smoothly as you inhale.
- Automatic Flow Control. AFC changes the Venturi assistance as depth changes, reducing the need for manual flow adjustment. The Rapid Adjustment Knob provides additional control for handling and specific diving situations.
- Rotating hose turret. The low-pressure turret turns to follow hose direction, making it easier to arrange hoses without tight bends around the first stage.
- Titanium valve components. Titanium combines low weight with resistance to seawater corrosion in the second-stage mechanism, making it useful for regular saltwater diving.
- Comfort Swivel. The second-stage hose connection moves with your head, helping reduce hose pull and strain at the mouthpiece.
- Seat-saving design. When the regulator is depressurised, the dynamic orifice lifts away from the low-pressure seat. This reduces prolonged loading on the seat during storage.
- Dual-silicone mouthpiece. Soft silicone improves comfort at the lips and gums, while firmer bite tabs support the second stage.
Setup and compatibility
Connection: DIN, Yoke. Choose the fitting that matches your cylinder valve and its pressure rating.
Environmental sealing is an available dealer configuration for the B2X. Confirm the supplied version if you require a sealed first stage.
Care, rinsing and storage
After each dive, connect the assembled regulator to a scuba cylinder and open the valve to pressurise the system. Keep it pressurised while fully submerging the first stage, second stages and connected hoses in fresh water. This allows thorough cleaning of the exposed components and hoses while helping prevent water entering the internal air passages, where it can cause corrosion and damage. Keep the cylinder secure throughout cleaning.
For routine cleaning, Dive Gear Australia recommends Cressi Neoclean Wetsuit Wash Neoprene Cleaner 500 mL or Revivex Wetsuit Shampoo 10 oz to help remove salt, chlorine and everyday residue. Dilute according to the cleaner’s label, then rinse thoroughly with fresh water.
Keep the regulator pressurised throughout washing and rinsing. Lift it out of the water and dry the first stage and cylinder connection before closing the cylinder valve, releasing the pressure and disconnecting. Fit the clean, dry dust cap, then allow the regulator to dry in the shade. Store it with the hoses loosely curved, without sharp bends or tension.
Before each dive, inspect the mouthpiece, hoses and connections for wear or damage. Have your regulator serviced by an authorised Atomic Aquatics technician at the interval specified in its manual, or sooner if it leaks, is damaged or its breathing performance changes. Leave internal adjustments and repairs to a qualified technician.
