Add a fifth port to your Apeks DST first stage. Use the Apeks DST 5th Port Upgrade Kit to achieve this. This Apeks conversion kit is specifically suitable for the DST 1st stage. It cannot be used on any other Apeks first stage.
Full installation instructions are included with the kit. However, we recommend the upgrade be done by an Authorised Apeks Service Technician. The recommended 'O' ring lubricant for this kit is Christo-lube. A similar O2-compatible lubricant is also suitable.
The kit comes complete with several components. These include AP1420 and AP1438. Also included are AP1299 and AP1410 (O-rings). Furthermore, the AP1419 and AP1460 port kits are part of the package.
Important Note
If your DST 1st stage requires its annual service, please ensure it is carried out. Use the service kit AP0241 for this purpose. Apeks service technicians will have access to all updated instructions and parts.
