Enriched Air NITROX Course

 

Welcome to one of PADI’s most popular specialties – the PADI Enriched Air (NITROX) Diver course. Diving with Enriched Air (NITROX) lets you safely extend your no stop time beyond the no decompression limits for air. Diving with enriched air means more time underwater – but you need to be certified as an Enriched Air Diver to get enriched air fills.

Enriched Air NITROX DiverWhether you’re into underwater photography or wreck diving, on vacation in a tropical paradise or just out for a leisurely day of diving at your local dive site, the PADI Enriched Air (NITROX) Diver course helps you get more out of diving by giving you more time underwater.

Experience the benefits of breathing Oxygen Enriched Air (NITROX) whilst scuba diving. Get certified to Dive with NITROX Enriched Air anywhere in the World. Safely extend your no-decompression limits to depths of up to 30 metres.

What will I Learn during the PADI Enriched Air (NITROX) Diver Course?

Enriched Air NITROX StudentsThe PADI Enriched Air (NITROX) course is designed to introduce you to the planning, safety aspects and benefits of diving with enriched air. The programme addresses the use of enriched air with 22 percent to 40 percent oxygen, with emphasis on enriched air with 32 and 36 percent oxygen.

After watching a video and completing some self-study sessions, spend a day out on the dive boat, diving Lanta’s top dive sites, to complete 2 dives to a maximum depth of 30m (depending on your experience level). Learn how to analyse your own air using an Oxyliser, and plan individual dive profiles based on the exact percentage of oxygen in your tank. Practice scuba diving with a computer set to your own scuba tank gas mix.
