The patented XDeep NX700 first stage diving regulator is equipped with a range of solutions. These allow it to be configured so that in every configuration, the hoses are perfectly positions. Hose routing should avoid bending or contact with the buoyancy compensator, which could negatively affect safety and cause premature wear of the hoses.
 
The key element is the rotary head located at the front of the first stage. The turret head can be locked in a specific position or kept unlocked allowing it to be rotated during a dive. To lock the head in the desired position, turn it so that the groove in the head is aligned with the hole in the regulator body. It is then possible to screw in the locking pin using an Allen key until it stops.
 
The Low Pressure (LP) ports in the rotary head are placed slightly in front in relation to the buoyancy compensator. The hose ports are also set at an angle so that the hoses that point downwards (e.g. the dry suit inflation hose, a second-stage long hose) bypass the inflated BCD without any interference.
 
As standard, the first-stage NX700 is equipped in a rotating head with three LP ports. This ensures the perfect arrangement of hoses in all standard configuration.
 
The Modular Turret System (MTS) allows for choosing from several different rotary and fixed heads with specific port positions. This enables optimum positioning and angles of the LP ports in all configurations, including non-standard or specialist applications (e.g. some rebreathers).
