PADI Nitrox Class

February 24, 2016

Please reserve your class and pick up your books at least 1 week prior to your scheduled classroom night! Call Scuba Outfitters at 239-280-5500 with any questions or to reserve your class today!

Scuba Outfitters’s PADI Enriched Air Diver course is PADI’s most popular specialty scuba course. Why? Because scuba diving with Enriched Air Nitrox gives you more no decompression time, especially on repetitive scuba dives. If staying down longer and getting back in the water sooner sounds appealing, then don’t hesitate to become an enriched air diver.

If you’re a PADI (Junior) Open Water Diver who is at least 12 years old, you can enroll in the Enriched Air Diver Specialty course.

What Is NITROX?

Nitrox is a Mixed Gas of Oxygen Enriched Air between 21% oxygen and 40% oxygen. The air that we normally breathe while diving is approximately 20% oxygen and 80% nitrogen.

NITROX vs AIR

What are the advantages of NITROX?

  • Longer time under water.
  • It is possible not only to extend your bottom time dramatically, but also to keep further away from your limits.

Also:

  • Reduced  Risk of Narcosis
  • Reduced Risk of Decompression illness
  • Reduced Post Diving Fatigue

If you want to stay underwater longer, and feel less tired after repetitive dives with shorter surface intervals, then the Enriched Air Nitrox Specialty Course is for you! Move on from Air’s 20% oxygen content and treat yourself to Nitrox – Enriched Air between 21% and 40% oxygen leaving you feeling fresher after every dive!

What will you learn?

You’ll learn why diving with air that has higher oxygen and lower nitrogen content offers more safety and gives you more bottom time, along with enriched air equipment considerations. During your two hour classroom session, you’ll:

  • Discuss managing oxygen exposure.
  • Practice analyzing oxygen content in your scuba tank.
  • Set your dive computer for diving with enriched air nitrox.
