Abyss 22
The regulator that has broken nearly every record
- Record-setting performance
- Front cover with metal insert and Mesh-Grid
- New hose protector for better heat exchange
Abyss gained its reputation for reliability by setting many diving records, such as deep-solo-dive at 313m and 101 divers breathing simultaneously for 40min from a single MR22 first stage. Firm tradition has evolved thanks to the new engineering and design. All metal, more performance, more reliability… more Abyss.

TRI-MATERIAL VALVE
Patented technology, conceived and created to optimize performance, safety, and reliability. This brass valve is covered with a hard PU, and then the head is layered molecularly with a soft PU. Tri-material (brass, soft polyurethane, and “heavy duty” polyurethane) reaches a new level of durability.
ALL METAL TECHNOLOGY
Metal second stages have superior performance to plastic second stages, especially in cold water, thanks to the high thermal conductivity that limits the freezing effect. Additional benefits are the improved durability, the longer working life and less dry mouth from breathing.
DFC - DYNAMIC FLOW CONTROL
The DFC system minimizes the intermediate pressure drop during inhalation, making it possible to use a simpler and more reliable second stage. No type of manual adjustment is necessary, thanks to the consistency derived from first stages that guarantees a stable flow of air, even under extreme conditions.
VAD - VORTEX ASSISTED DESIGN
All Mares second stages offer the unique patented VAD system. The air bypass tube conveys air to the mouthpiece creating a swirling vortex with a low pressure area in centre that keeps the diaphragm down during inhalation, for very sensitive and easy breathing at all depths.
MESH-GRID
The patented mesh design of the second stage cover reduces the pressure of water flowing onto the second stage diaphragm and minimizes free-flow. Even in strong currents it eliminates the need for a knob to ‘de-tune’ your air delivery system to stop free flowing: Advanced technology through basic physics.
SUPERFLEX HOSE
Mares developed the new “superflex” hose after many years of testing and research. The results achieved far surpass the tests required by EN250, and even the highly stringent additional tests Mares applies for use in extreme conditions. Its exceptional softness and extremely light weight guarantee the maximum freedom of movement.
