Nitrox dive can dive with a tank that contains higher percentage of Oxygen (more than 21%) and lower percentage of Nitrogen (lower than 68%). The use of Nitrox tank allows divers to have longer bottom time and shorter surface interval. This benefit is very significant when we do repetitive deep dives especially diving in foriegn countries where their topography suits for diving with Nitrox tank.
Course Duration : 3-5 hours in a day
The course emphasizes on theory. Student will understand how Partial pressure of Oxygen (PPO2) affects your body, how to measure percentage of Oxygen in a tank, how to set a dive computer using Nitrox. Apart of that, student will learn on potential accident related to using a Nitrox tank and how to avoid them.
Students have an option to dive with Nitrox tanks in the open ocean (with extra cost) and need to inform the instructor in advance.
