Save Money! Best Price Guaranty 4990 THB
The PADI Enriched Air Diver course is one of the most popular specialty courses. Scuba diving with enriched air Nitrox gives you more no-decompression dive time. This means more time underwater, especially on repetitive dives. (Especially useful on liveaboards)
Your instructor will get you to complete the Independent study prior to the course. For the Enriched Air (Nitrox) Diver specialty course you will read the Enriched Air (Nitrox) diving manual, complete the knowledge review and have it checked by your Instructor when you arrive the dive center. There is a short exam and then a practical session where we will show you how to analyses a Nitrox tank and how to get a Nitrox fill from a dive center. After all the knowledge reviews, exam and practical components have been done, we will issue your certification. You are now an Enriched Air (Nitrox) Diver!
Throughout the course, you will learn:
- Theory related to Enriched Air Dives
- Techniques for getting more dive time by using enriched air Nitrox
- Enriched air scuba diving equipment considerations
- Enriched air considerations, including managing oxygen exposure, how to tell what’s in your scuba tank and how to set your dive computer
Nitrox is a great way to spend more time underwater at a certain depth, great to explore wrecks in the 18 to 30 m depth range. You will feel less tired after consecutive dives, have a shorter surface interval and absorb less nitrogen in your body tissue.
- Start Everyday!
