Oceanic Alpha 8 Second Stage Only
Replace or configure a compatible regulator with the Oceanic Alpha 8 second stage. Its demand valve, integrated purge button and orthodontic mouthpiece keep the breathing component straightforward, with the first stage and hose selected separately.
This listing is for the separate second stage, for use in a compatible regulator assembly.
Features and benefits
- Downstream demand valve. The conventional valve supplies gas as you inhale, keeping the breathing controls straightforward.
- Accessible purge. The large purge button is easy to locate and press when clearing the second stage, including when wearing gloves.
- Mouthpiece comfort. The shaped silicone mouthpiece supports a comfortable, secure hold without adding unnecessary bulk at the mouth.
Setup and compatibility
This is a separate regulator component. Pair it with a compatible first or second stage and the required hose; the complete assembly must be configured and checked by a qualified technician. The low-pressure hose is not included.
Care, rinsing and storage
Clean this component as part of a complete, correctly assembled regulator system. 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 Oceanic 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.
