XS Scuba representative. EAN/ Nitrox Service Newly manufactured XS Scuba regulators are assembled and packaged to be compatible with oxygen enriched air (EAN/ Nitrox), not to exceed 40% oxygen content. If the regulator is going to be used for this application, however, it must be dedicated and clearly labled as such, in order to prevent any crossover use with standard compressed air. -

Page 16: Section 5 - Final Testing Procedures
AirWave Octo Final Testing Procedures CAUTION: If the regulator will be used with EAN/ Nitrox, it is important to pressurize and flow test the regulator using only hydrocarbon-free gas. The regula- tor will otherwise become contaminated with hydrocar- bons if normal compressed air is used. Industrial grade compressed Nitrogen is strongly recommended as a lower cost alternative to EAN/ Nitrox for the purposes of flow testing. -
