Aqualung Legend Elite Black Edition

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 Black Edition Second Stage Features:

• Black Titadur Coated Bezel and Ring
• Black on Black Co-Molded Exhaust Tee
• Stainless Steel 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
• A 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
