Genesis Argo Regulator Set

Overview The Genesis Argo Regulator is designed to deliver smooth, dependable breathing performance across a wide range of recreational diving conditions. Its environmentally sealed, balanced diaphragm first stage helps maintain consistent performance as depth and cylinder pressure change while protecting internal components from surrounding contaminants. The pneumatically balanced second stage adds diver-adjustable breathing control with a Venturi switch and single adjustment knob. A lightweight design and braided regulator hose with swivel help improve comfort and reduce hose pull, while Nitrox compatibility up to 40% provides added versatility for recreational enriched-air diving.
