What is TEC Diving?
Everybody
has heard about the latest trends in diving, using a mixed gas called NITROX as a breathing
medium. In the past 30 years, Nitrox has been utilized successfully
by military, research, and commercial divers around the world.
Nitrox Diving uses normal air enriched with additional Oxygen.
For this reason, Nitrox Diving is often also called ENRICHED AIR
Diving. This opens up new and exiting possibilities for divers and
has many benefits such as:
- Safer dives, because of reduced nitrogen content
- Longer dives, because your no-decompression limit is greatly
extended
- No time-limit diving becomes a real possibility, because less
nitrogen means less danger of nitrogen saturation during repetitive
dives
- You feel better - many divers report less physical tiredness
after repetitive dives using Nitrox compared to diving with normal
air
You will find more extensive information in the introduction for
Nitrox Diving.
TEC Diving Courses
 Nitrox
Diving provides many advantages compared to diving
with air. Used properly, it is considered as safe as diving with
normal compressed air. But it requires specialized training to accommodate
for safety considerations not normally associated with recreational
air diving.
PADIs Enriched
Air Nitrox and DSAT Gas
Blender courses address these concerns and teach the diver how
to benefit the most by diving with Nitrox and to safely
mix Nitrox.
In addition, the PADI instructor courses Enriched
Air Nitrox and DSAT Gas Blender
teaches the PADI Instructor how to successfully organize, plan and
market Nitrox and Gas Blender training for recreational
divers.
As a certified Nitrox Diver, you can enjoy Nitrox
Diving on our liveaboard cruises and day
trips, adding a new dimension to your diving adventures. |
