Cressi, since1946.
Cressi was founded in 1946 as a diving company rich in innovation, design, development, manufacturing. An entirely family-owned and operated Italian brand, Cressi is one of the first companies to develop innovative equipment for watersports. Over 70 years later, the commitment to innovation is still in the company’s DNA. The passion that stimulated the founders to begin their adventure is still present and, combined with the advanced technology, results in the best and most reliable products!
AC2 COMPACT / OCTOPUS COMPACT
Ideal scuba diving regulator for beginners and travelers. Piston 1st stage plus a compact single-hull second stage. 1 HP and 4 LP ports. Weight: 923 g - 32.6 oz. Simple piston 1st stage, a "work mule" that is affordable, simple, reliable and robust, suitable for intense use. This first stage is appreciated by dive centers and professional companies who consider it to be a very rentable tool as well as a surprising level of performance.
- Ideal scuba diving regulator for beginners and travelers. Piston 1st stage plus a compact single-hull second stage. 1 HP and 4 LP ports. Weight: 923 g - 32.6 oz. Made in Italy.
- A heavy-duty piston 1st stage, affordable, simple, reliable and robust, suitable for intense use. Appreciated by Dive Centers and specialized companies who consider it to be a very reliable device.
- Conical filter with large filtering capacity, essential for preventing infiltration of particles from the tanks.
- Exterior LP regulation with a common hexagonal key, greatly facilitates managing adjustments and technical maintenance.
- Asymmetrical frontal 2nd stage cover drilling.
- The water flow pushes the diaphragm anti-clockwise direction to create its retraction in a flat position and to make the lever decrease gradually in precise perpendicularity, regardless of condition.
- The specific calibration of the inhalation mechanism slightly changes the personality of the air outlet by rewarding an abundant flow without the need to exploit the Venturi effect.
- The AC2/Compact regulator is designed and manufactured in Italy by Cressi, an Italian brand pioneer in scuba diving, snorkeling and swimming equipment since 1946.

Greatly simplified single-hull 2nd stage made of ABS + elastomer of really compact size and extremely light. Its mechanism and development are perfectly planned to obtain the minimum number of components and great strength.Asymmetrical frontal 2nd stage cover drilling. |
Simple piston 1st stage, a "work mule" that is affordable, simple, reliable and robust, suitable for intense use. Conical filter with large filtering capacity, essential for preventing infiltration of particles from the tanks. This feature is especially important for regulators in dive schools and rental agencies. Airflow administered at 2100 l/min with an intermediate pressure drop in intensive breathing (2175 PSI | 150 BAR) 7÷12 PSI | 0.5÷0.8 BAR (measurement is taken at an LP port with the second stage connected and 2175 PSI pressure in the tank). Exterior LP regulation with a common hexagonal key, greatly facilitates managing adjustments and technical maintenance. |
This first stage is appreciated by dive centers and professional companies who consider it to be a very rentable tool due to practically nonexistent need for maintenance, as well as a surprising level of performance. The specific calibration of the inhalation mechanism changes slightly the personality on air output according to Ellipse series, rewarding an abundant flow without the need to exploit Venturi effect, beyond the exquisite touch and sensitivity of these kinds of regulators. This feature provides a limited tendency to continuous flow on the surface or during the placement of equipment into the water, excellent for schools and renting (both the octopus and the double regulator). However, the results of the features place it beyond regulators of the highest range. |
Octopus made in ultra simplified single-hull in ABS + elastomer of really compact size (2.36 in | 6 cm in diameter), extremely light (5.15 oz | 145 g). Its mechanism and development are planned to obtain the minimum number of components and great strength. It's suitable for maximum reliability uses and also as a travel regulator due to its lightness. tivity of these kinds of regulators. Exhalation effort reduced without the need to minimize the diaphragm thickness. The restraint system design of the diaphragm guides the flow 100% channelled towards the nozzles of the exhaust tee, that helps to guide bubbles far from the visual field. Practically integral purge pusher, bigger between 80 and 400% than any other regulator in the market to facilitate purge manoeuvre, especially to inexperienced divers. |
