The Oceanic Alpha 10 Octopus (SKU: 40-3744-18) is a pneumatically balanced, high-visibility alternate air source designed for high reliability and low breathing effort during emergency out-of-air situations.
Designed for effortless air delivery, low jaw fatigue, and reliable performance, it serves as a core second stage across Oceanic's recreational and rental regulator lineups.
The new Alpha 10 Octopus combines a pneumatically balanced second stage in a compact and tough design, with unbeatable value.
Offering advanced technology and lasting reliability, the new Alpha 10 regulator features Oceanic’s patented pneumatically balanced second stage valve, which reduces resistance for effortless breathing. Divers can choose between a piston or diaphragm first stage valve depending on their performance needs or budget. The addition of a pre-dive switch to prevent free flow is an important update from its predecessor, the Alpha 9.
The Alpha 10 Octopus is pneumatically balance demand valve design regulator for ease of breathing at all depths and cylinder pressures. The balanced feature will perform flawlessly at high and low cylinder pressures automatically. Oceanic's adjustment technology, dive/pre-dive venture control will prevent unwanted free flow when surface swimming from the shore, jumping off the back of a boat or diving into a current and a super comfortable orthodontic mouthpiece with bite tabs increase dive enjoyment. The low-profile light weight second stage/ Octopus has a 2.66" (6.75cm) diameter. A highly durable and flexible bright yellow 36" (91.4cm) MaxFlex braided low pressure 3/8" threaded hose further increases diving comfort. Regulator comes with an owner's manual. Regulator is proudly made in the USA.
The Alpha 10 Octopus has been thoughtfully designed to be tough, easy to use, easy to service, and is covered by Oceanic’s lifetime warranty and free parts for life guarantee.
Pneumatically Balanced Valve: Utilizes intermediate air pressure to balance the internal poppet valve, dramatically reducing cracking resistance and delivering smooth, consistent airflow regardless of depth or cylinder pressure.
Dive / Pre-Dive Venturi Control Switch: Features an accessible adjustment lever that alters internal airflow paths to prevent unwanted surface free-flows during giant-stride entries or surface swims.
Orthodontic Silicone Mouthpiece: Molded liquid-silicone construction with bite tabs designed to reduce jaw strain during long or repetitive dives.
Compact & Lightweight Housing: Engineered with a compact profile and durable techno-polymer casing, reducing weight for travel and underwater drag.
MaxFlex Braided Hose Compatibility: Connects via standard 9/16"-18 UNF low-pressure hose fittings, optimized for use with flexible braided LP hoses to further reduce mouthpiece pull.
