Enriched Air Nitrox Diver

A marvellous way of extending your bottom time to spend much longer doing what you like best.

You will also find that you will start to explore sites not normally dived by others. Reef systems in the 20-30m range would have great benefits on diving on enriched air Nitrox.

This is NOT a technical deep diving gas! Simply put, it reduces the amount of nitrogen (replaced by O2 ) in your breathing mix. This makes your body think that you are diving to a shallower depth, thus being able to spend longer underwater safely.

THAT'S IT!! A MUST DO course!

You will cover:

• Planning, organisation, procedures, techniques, problems and hazards of Enriched Air diving
• The preparation, calibration and use of oxygen analysers
• Oxygen management

dive for twice as long!

Prerequisites:

• PADI Open Water Diver or equivalent
• 15 Years of age or older
• Up to date divers medical within the 12 months

Course duration:

• Academic Session
• Optional open water dives

Imagine - on normal air your bottom time is about 25 minutes on the Rainbow Warrior - but using Nitrox you have twice as long!
