Computer Nitrox Diver
Extend your bottom time and increase your enjoyment on every dive. Switch to Nitrox and turn every dive into a longer and more enjoyable experience. By breathing an oxygen-enriched mix, you extend your bottom time and increase the flexibility in your dive profiles. It’s the smart choice for divers who want to make the most of every minute underwater, feel more confident, and enjoy every second in the blue.
Why take this course?
Enjoy longer dives - The real magic of Nitrox lies in its higher oxygen content and lower nitrogen levels. This means you can safely stay underwater longer than with regular compressed air and truly get the most out of every dive.
Less nitrogen, safer dives - With Nitrox you can dive for the same amount of time as you would on air, but with less nitrogen absorbed, giving you a more relaxed experience underwater and allowing you to focus on enjoying the dive instead of thinking about limits.
Up to 40% oxygen - This course gives you access to mixes from 22% to 40% oxygen, including the most popular blends like Nx32 and Nx36. More flexibility, more control, and the freedom to adapt your diving to every adventure.
What You can expect to learn
Gas Analysis - You’ll learn how to use an oxygen analyzer and check the mix you breathe. Step by step, you’ll master the safety protocols and get into the habit of always verifying your gas before every dive.
Cylinder Labeling - You’ll be taught how to properly label your cylinder and log the key details of your mix: oxygen percentage, maximum operating depth, and essential data to plan safer dives.
Dive Computer Setup - You’ll learn to set your dive computer for Nitrox by entering the oxygen percentage of your mix. This ensures accurate calculations and gives you the confidence to dive smarter.
Oxygen Toxicity - You’ll understand the importance of respecting depth limits for each mix to avoid oxygen toxicity. You’ll know how to plan your dives while staying well within safe margins.
