NITROX
stands for "Nitrogen Enriched Oxygen". This enriched
air replaces some of the nitrogen you breathe underwater with
oxygen, so that during a dive you absorb less nitrogen than
you would when breathing normal air. This means that you have
longer no-decompression limits, and can dive longer for each
depth than you could using air.
What
will I learn?
The
PADI Enriched Air Diver course is designed to teach you the
procedures for safe recreational no-decompression diving with
enriched air. The course covers the equipment and procedural
concerns involving enriched air. You'll learn how to plan
dives and determine your no-decompression limits and your
oxygen exposure limits with enriched air. You'll learn the
proper procedures for obtaining enriched air as well as the
hazards associated with handling and diving with enriched air.
