The Tecline R2 TEC with 5th LP port is a high‑performance first-stage regulator designed for demanding recreational and technical divers. Built on the proven R2 TEC platform, it features a balanced diaphragm, environmentally sealed dry chamber, cold‑water kit, and breathing parameters that exceed EN250A standards. The addition of the 5th LP port provides enhanced hose‑routing flexibility, making it ideal for sidemount, stage, twinset, and advanced technical configurations.
Balanced Diaphragm for Stable, Predictable Breathing
The R2 TEC uses a balanced diaphragm mechanism, ensuring consistent intermediate pressure and smooth breathing throughout the dive.
- Stable airflow at all cylinder pressures
- Predictable breathing effort under high demand
- Ideal for complex technical setups
- Environmentally sealed for protection against silt and contaminants
Dry Chamber + Cold‑Water Kit
Engineered for harsh conditions, the regulator includes a dry chamber and cold‑water kit that protect internal components and reduce freeze‑up risk.
- Reliable performance in cold‑water environments
- Enhanced thermal stability
- Suitable for overhead, deep, and long‑duration dives
Maritime Bronze Body for Maximum Durability
Constructed from maritime bronze, the R2 TEC offers exceptional corrosion resistance and long‑term reliability.
- Premium corrosion‑resistant housing
- Long service life
- Excellent stability under frequent technical use
Enhanced Hose Routing with 5th LP Port
The defining feature of this model is the additional 5th LP port, providing superior hose‑routing options for advanced configurations.
- 2 HP ports
- 5 LP ports
- 360° swivel turret for optimal hose management
- Perfect for sidemount, stage bottles, twinset, and technical single‑tank setups
High‑Performance Pressure Ratings
- Max operating pressure: 300 bar
- Intermediate pressure: approx. 9.0–9.5 bar
These values ensure predictable breathing performance and compatibility with high‑flow second stages used in demanding technical environments.
Ideal For:
- Sidemount diving (excellent)
- Stage tanks (excellent)
- Twinset configurations (very good)
- Technical single‑tank setups (very good)
