What you can expect to learn

• Dive with Nitrox
• Use an oxygen air analyzer
• Set your dive computer

Course Equipment Requirements

If you do not own a set of scuba equipment, and you would like to make the two optional dives, you will need to rent gear.

If you own scuba gear, confirm it can be used with nitrox (don’t worry, most modern dive equipment is compatible). If you don’t have the manuals that came with your equipment, your Dive Shop or Instructor can help.

Only certain scuba tanks can be filled with enriched air (you’ll learn more about this in the course). Your Dive Shop will provide dedicated nitrox cylinders for your enriched air dives. Your instructor will also provide an oxygen analyzer.
