Atomic TFX Regulator
$3569.95
TFX. IT’S ALL ABOUT ATTITUDE.
THE ULTIMATE “CONNOISSEURS” NATURAL BREATHING REGULATOR
Atomic Aquatics engineers reimagined the rather unconventional front exhaust regulator design to create the most natural and effortless breathing regulator for all diving attitudes or positions. Traditional rear exhaust regulators have more breathing resistance in certain dive positions, like looking up. The TFX gives divers enhanced and sophisticated air delivery with dramatically reduced inhalation effort compared to all other regulators on the market.
TFX Regulator
TFX REGULATOR FRONT EXHAUST VALVE POSITIONING Atomic engineers deconstructed every component of previous front exhaust regulator designs to reevaluate and reimagine function and performance. The genesis of the unique Atomic TFX design lies in positioning the exhaust valve in the center of the inhalation diaphragm and mounting both in the front of the regulator, which provides enhanced breathing performance and superior dryness not possible in a conventional design.
IMPROVED PRESSURE DIFFERENTIAL & WATER COLUMN EFFECT
In extreme diving positions, like looking upwards, the TFX exhaust valve and diaphragm are positioned at exactly at the same level with no pressure differential. Any water will collect at the exhaust valve and be easily exhaled with each breath. The water column effect is minimal in the TFX, compared to the large water column effect in the conventional regulator, which will become more difficult to inhale since the diaphragm is higher than the mouthpiece. The TFX is much less sensitive to different attitudes encountered during diving.
CASE ARCHITECTURE & EXHAUST DEFLECTION
The radical TFX design created engineering and design challenges that resulted in fresh case architecture – a complex series of fluid and natural geometries that integrate seamlessly with the narrow-width case and front cover. These unique forms were truly necessitated by function, such as finding an innovative way to route the exhaust from the front of the regulator to the rear. Form follows function with the sweeping flexible front purge cover and extended soft silicone rubber exhaust deflectors that route bubbles away from and behind the diver’s field of view.
SIGNATURE ELITE MATERIALS & PERFORMANCE
The TFX is fabricated with many iconic Atomic Aquatics materials and performance features: All-Titanium First and Second Stage metal components Seat Saving Dynamic Orifice Low-friction cap at the cam surface Venturi Nozzle gear-driven tuning switch Variable Lift Cam New 4X Yoke connection first stage – one turn secures it to the tank Comfort Swivel Hose now with less friction and smoother movement
Limited Lifetime Warranty
All metal parts are warranted against corrosion for life. Period.
SERVICE & WARRANTY
EXCLUSIVE ATOMIC WARRANTY: 3-YEARS/300-DIVE SERVICE INTERVAL
The Atomic Aquatics Limited Lifetime Warranty is not contingent on proof of annual service.
Atomic Aquatics offers the most courageous warranty in the dive industry. Your regulator is the soul of your dive system. You don’t need to worry about it performing…especially if you are in some remote location where competent repair is a remote concept. That’s why every Atomic Aquatics regulator is built using materials and processes that resist corrosion and minimize maintenance – so you can log lots of dives over a long time with supreme confidence. While every regulator benefits from annual servicing, Atomic Aquatics regulators do not require it. So you can worry less and dive more with Atomic Aquatics.
