The SSI Enriched Air Nitrox Specialty course is a combination of theoretical learning and practical application designed to enhance your diving experience.
This course teaches you how to safely dive with Enriched Air Nitrox (EANx), allowing you to enjoy longer bottom times and shorter surface intervals. You'll learn about gas mixtures, oxygen analysis, and how to set your dive computer for Nitrox diving. By completing this course, you'll be able to extend your time underwater and reduce fatigue after diving.
📖 Course Overview
The SSI Enriched Air Nitrox Specialty course is one of the most popular and valuable continuing education programs for certified divers. In just one day, you'll learn how to extend your no-decompression limits and reduce surface intervals by diving with oxygen-enriched air.
The course begins with comprehensive theory sessions covering the physics and physiology of breathing oxygen-enriched air. You'll learn about the benefits of Nitrox, including longer bottom times and reduced fatigue, as well as the risks such as oxygen toxicity and how to manage them. The curriculum includes gas analysis procedures, dive computer programming for Nitrox, and how to fill out oxygen-compatible equipment logs.
During the practical component, you'll analyze actual Nitrox tanks using an oxygen analyzer, label them according to standard procedures, and set your dive computer for the specific oxygen percentage. You'll then complete one supervised open water dive using Enriched Air Nitrox, practicing monitoring your oxygen exposure and applying your new knowledge in real-world conditions.
Upon successful completion, you'll earn the SSI Enriched Air Nitrox Specialty certification, recognized worldwide. This certification is highly recommended for any diver who wants to maximize their time underwater, reduce post-dive fatigue, and enhance their overall diving experience. Many dive operators require Nitrox certification for multi-day dive trips or liveaboard adventures.
