Why Learn SSI Enriched Air Nitrox Speciality Diver (Bali)
If you want to improve your diving experience and get the most out of every dive, then you should take the SSI Enriched Air Nitrox course while you are in Bali. Here are 5 reasons why:

Longer bottom time if one of the benefits of breathing less Nitrogen.
2. You'll be able to dive more often.
Using the similar concept of breathing less nitrogen, a diver who is diving on nitrox air has less nitrogen to off gas during a surface interval. Therefore, allowing a shorter surface interval required and more dives can be done. Take the SSI Enriched Air Nitrox course to understand more!
3. You will be able to have longer repetitive dive times.
Nitrox dives are very useful for divers who wants to do consecutive dives in a day and still maintain longer bottom times on the second or third dive. Learn how does nitrox allow you to do it in this course!
4. Your safety will be improved.
Knowledge helps us to solve problems and understand around you. We have heard so much about the benefits of Nitrox, what about the effects that comes with it? Theres always two sides to a coin.
When you take the SSI Enriched Air Nitrox course, you will be equip with the knowledge and science of diving with a higher percentage of Oxygen at depth. Learning about how will Nitrox affect your body, and what are the precautions and measures taken when diving with nitrox, allows you to increase your awareness and safety while diving with Nitrox.
5. You'll have a more enjoyable diving experience
With Enriched Air Nitrox, you’ll be able to dive for longer periods of time and at greater depths than with regular air. This will allow you to see more of the underwater world and to experience more of the amazing marine life that Bali has to offer.
The SSI Enriched Air Nitrox Speciality Diver course aims to provide scuba divers the skills and knowledge they need to safely and effectively use nitrox mixtures with up to 40% oxygen content. By the end of the course, you will be able to state the definition of Enriched Air Nitrox (EANx), describe the benefits of Nitrox and list down the limitations of diving with Nitrox.
Enriched air nitrox is a gas mixture used in scuba diving that contains more oxygen than regular air. This can increase the amount of time a diver can stay underwater (bottom time), decrease surface interval time, allow for longer repetitive dives, or improves your safety if you dive with nitrox in the same conditions and duration as you would with regular air.
The use of nitrox comes with some limitations, and might be mistakenly believe that it is designed diving at very deep waters or have a misconception that diving nitrox is substantially more dangerous than diving with air. Learning about both the benefits and limitations of nitrox as well as the science behind it, allows you to make smarter decisions with your dives.
In this topic, you will learn more about the type of equipment and maintenance required has to be considered when diving with Nitrox. The effects of increase percentage of Oxygen can bring about different impacts to your own scuba gears (regulators). Also, the cylinders tanks used to contain the Nitrox gas has to be rated and verified to be safe to use with Nitrox. Learn what the safety standards of the dive equipment are for Nitrox dives.
Dive planning is a crucial part of scuba diving, and is especially important when using Enriched Air Nitrox. This speciality diver course from SSI will teach you how to plan and execute dives theoretically and also on your dive computer!
It is important to manage your gas carefully when using nitrox, as it can be dangerous if not used properly. In this specialty course, you will learn about how to safely use nitrox while diving, and how to gas manage your dive so that you can use it effectively. Also, you will learn what is the correct procedure to check your nitrox gas before a dive.
