DGX Custom - DGX Gears XTRA Single Tank Reg Package
Everything you need for an extreme performance regulator setup in a Hogarthian single tank configuration. The package, using DGX Gears XTRA regulators, is assembled by Dive Gear Express.
Included with this Package:
- One DGX Gears XTRA First Stage and two DGX Gears XTRA Second Stages
- One { 60 in | 1.5 m } or { 84 in | 2.1 m } Reg Hose for the primary
- One { 22 in | 56 cm } Reg Hose for the secondary
- One "Brass and Glass" SPG with { 26 in | 66 cm } HP Hose
- DIN-to-Yoke Spin-On Adapter, Necklace, S/S Bolt Snap, DIN Cap
- Optionally add a BC Inflator Hose or use the one that comes with your BC
The DGX Gears XTRA 1st stage is a extreme-performance design based on a balanced flow-through piston in a PVD chrome-plated brass body that provides consistent gas flow regardless of cold-water, depth, and tank pressure. Two standard high pressure 7/16-inch ports and five standard high-flow low pressure 3/8-inch ports on a swivel turret provide an infinite variety of mounting orientations and hose routing options. The DGX XTRA first stage comes standard with a 300-BAR DIN connector and is Nitrox Ready. We do not recommend or offer the ACD option for use in technical diving applications, especially where the diver may perform valve shutdown drills.
The XTRA 2nd stage is a balanced adjustable second stage in a rugged low-weight body featuring metal internal components with increased resistance to freezing when diving in extreme conditions. The large diaphragm and exhaust valve provide responsive inhalation and easy exhalation in all positions. An adjustable inhalation effort knob sets the cracking resistance to your preference and the dive/pre-dive switch minimizes free flow in when used as a backup. The XTRA also includes a long bite orthodontic mouthpiece to reduce jaw fatigue.
Our recommended service interval is every two years or one hundred dives. There is nothing unique about the DGX regulators in terms of service requirements and needs no special tools beyond those generic tools found on the typical regulator technicians bench. We sell the DGX Gears XTRA service parts kits direct to the public.

How Long is Your Hose?
Dive Gear Express offers regulator configurations that are suitable for hogarthian (aka 'DIR') style diving. A subset of our other regulator packages, the design of the second stages in these selected packages allows the cover to be removed and replaced underwater in order to clear silt or debris, a hogarthian requirement. True hogarthian or not, all of these DGX Custom regulator packages are already configured for hogarthian hose routing to eliminate bowing and dangling hoses. You get the correct length hoses and there is no extra 'hose kit' to buy, making these packages an even better value.
Hogarthian hose routing for doubles yields 'standard' hose lengths that work most divers, but not everyone. Nearly all overhead divers with doubles use a standard { 84 in | 2.1 m } LP hose but a few open water divers use a shorter { 60 | 1.5 m } LP hose for their primary second stage, and both put the backup second stage on a { 22 in | 56 cm} LP hose hung on a necklace directly below their chin. Most doubles divers use a standard {24 in 61| cm} HP hose for their pressure gauge, but some divers (either diving singles or who like to hold their gauge a little further away for reading) prefer a slightly longer {26 in | 66 cm} HP hose. Most divers select a standard {22 in | 56 cm} BC power inflator hose, but a few divers prefer to have the power inflator rest very high on their shoulder and use a shorter {18 in | 46 cm} BC hose. Our configuration tool allows you to build a regulator package to your specifications.
