Introduction to Helitrox
The TDI Helitrox Diver Course examines the theory, methods, and procedures for planning staged decompression dives utilizing helium in the breathing mixture to reduce the effects of nitrogen narcosis.
The TDI Helitrox Diver Course trains divers how to plan and conduct staged decompression dives to a maximum depth of 45 metres/150 feet. The most common equipment requirements, gear set-up, and decompression techniques are also presented during this course. Students are permitted to utilize enriched air nitrox and helium mixes with percentage of helium not greater 35%, and percentage of oxygen not smaller than 21 %, and up to 100% oxygen during decompression.
This program is designed as a stand-alone course, or it may be taught in conjunction with TDI Advanced Nitrox and Decompression Procedure at the discretion of the instructor.
Who this course is for:
- Certified Advanced Nitrox and Decompression procedure divers looking to expand their knowledge of decompression theory and diving techniques using helitrox as breathing gas
- Certified Advanced Nitrox and Decompression procedure divers looking to reduce nitrogen narcotic effect at depth and stay clear-minded during their underwater activities
Course info:
- 5 days (4 dives)
- Max Depth: 45m
