Step into the technical diving world
PADI Tec 45 diver course is the real step into the technical diving world. This is where recreational divers accept the challenge and commit becoming technical divers.
PADI Tec 45 extends depth limits to 45 meters, and teaches you how to properly execute decompression dives using double cylinders for bottom gas filled with air or nitrox, and single decompression cylinder with up to 100% oxygen.
This course is prerequisite for Tec 50 course.
To enroll in the Tec 45 course, you must meet these qualifications:
- PADI Tec 40 Diver
- PADI Rescue Diver
- Proof of CPR/First Aid training within previous two years
- Minimum 50 logged dives, at least 20 dives deeper than 30 meters
- 18 years of age
Course info:
- Duration: 3-4 days (4 dives)
PADI Tec 45 Trimix option
Instead of Air or Nitrox as bottom gas used during PADI Tec 45 diver course, divers have option choosing trimix as bottom gas with maximum of 35% helium and not less than 21% oxygen in their mix.
PADI Tec 45 divers can benefit greatly by using helium in their bottom mixes. Helium reduces amount of nitrogen in the mix and automatically reduces not only nitrogen narcosis but also gas density. Therefore, divers using trimix will have clear head at depth and easier work of breathing comparing to divers using air.
