SSI Enriched Air Nitrox Course in Phuket
American Divers of Phuket advises adding Nitrox to your bag of diving tools. Also known as enriched air, is a popular breathing gas mixture used by divers to extend their bottom time and reduce the risk of decompression sickness. This gas blend contains a higher percentage of oxygen and a lower percentage of nitrogen compared to standard air, providing various benefits for divers during their underwater excursions.
Scuba diving with Nitrox offers divers the advantage of reduced nitrogen absorption, which can lead to longer no-stop dive times and shorter surface intervals. By breathing a gas mixture with a lower nitrogen content, divers can decrease the risk of nitrogen-related issues, such as decompression sickness, especially during repetitive or deep dives.
Additionally, diving with Nitrox can contribute to shorter surface intervals between dives, allowing divers to make multiple dives in a day while still adhering to safe diving practices. This can be particularly beneficial for divers looking to maximize their time underwater and explore multiple dive sites in a single day without compromising safety.
Furthermore, diving with Nitrox can lead to decreased post-dive fatigue and shorter recovery times, as the reduced nitrogen exposure can help minimize the effects of nitrogen accumulation in the body. This can result in a more comfortable diving experience overall, especially for divers prone to feeling tired or sluggish after extended periods of diving.
While diving with Nitrox offers numerous advantages, it is essential for divers to undergo proper training and certification in Enriched Air Nitrox diving to ensure safe gas management and understanding of the potential risks associated with using this gas blend. By being knowledgeable and properly trained, divers can fully enjoy the benefits of diving with Nitrox and enhance their underwater explorations while prioritizing safety and responsible diving practices.
