How deep can you go on Trimix?

How deep can you go on Trimix?

While taking the Trimix Diver course your TDI Instructor will teach you how to plan and execute dives utilizing as little as 18 percent oxygen and diving to maximum depth of 60 metres/200 feet with a blend of helium appropriate for the planned depth.

How deep can you go with Nitrox?

The two most common recreational diving nitrox mixes contain 32% and 36% oxygen, which have maximum operating depths (MODs) of 34 metres (112 ft) and 29 metres (95 ft) respectively when limited to a maximum partial pressure of oxygen of 1.4 bar (140 kPa).

How deep can you go with Snuba?

20 feet
How deep can you go when SNUBA® diving? Keeping in mind that the air hose which is attached to the SNUBA® raft carries the oxygen, you can dive to a maximum depth of 20 feet (6 metres), which is the length of the hose, during your SNUBA® expedition.

How deep can you dive with air tanks?

There are depth limitations too, as nitrogen becomes narcotic the deeper you go. This becomes increasingly debilitating, so the maximum depth for recreational diving is 130 feet (40 m). Air itself becomes toxic as we go beyond 184 feet (56 m). Best used for: All recreational diving down to 130 feet (40 m).

How deep do professional divers go?

However, the Professional Association of Diving Instructors (PADI) defines anything from 18 metres (60 ft) to 30 metres (100 ft) as a “deep dive” in the context of recreational diving (other diving organisations vary), and considers deep diving a form of technical diving.

What is hypoxic trimix?

The Hypoxic Trimix course is the pinnacle of technical diving. You’ll use decompression software to create custom dive tables and plan your dives. You’ll also understand the hazards and risks involved in technical diving, as well as how to prepare for and handle reasonably foreseeable technical diving emergencies.

Can you dive deeper on nitrox?

You can simply reduce the risks by doing the same dive profile but on Nitrox. Though, you can’t dive deeper with Nitrox! Even if many people may think so. Nitrox is actually inappropriate for deep dives!

What is the maximum recommended depth for using 100 percent oxygen?

The NOAA limit for nitrox diving at 1.6 ATA is 45 minutes for normal diving and 120 minutes for exceptional exposure diving. Breathing 100 percent oxygen during a decompression stop at 20 feet (6.1 meters) is a common practice. At this depth, the partial pressure will be about 1.6 ATA.

Can you get decompression sickness from SNUBA?

Yes. Unlike a scuba dive where there’s a risk of decompression sickness if you go to altitude after a dive, SNUBA depths are shallow enough that the risk of DCS is minimal.
