TDI Advanced Nitrox Diver
Course Overview & Training Objectives
TDI Advanced Nitrox Diver qualifies technical divers to utilize enriched air nitrox mixtures from air up to 100% oxygen within a maximum depth of 40m/130ft for non-stop and planned staged decompression diving (often paired with Decompression Procedures). Divers study oxygen toxicity, gas consumption (SAC/RMV), cylinder oxygen cleaning requirements, and stage bottle rigging. The course introduces accelerated decompression strategies and rigorous equipment labeling.
