The benefits, hazards, and proper procedures for using nitrox mixes from 22 through 40 percent oxygen content

Equipment considerations

Cylinder labeling

Analyzing nitrox mixtures

Gas blending procedures

Use TDI Tables to plan a nitrox dive taking advantage of EAD calculations

Create a simple written dive plan for a nitrox dive to an maximum operating depth (MOD) calculated with PO₂ between 1.3 and 1.6 depending on environmental conditions

Demonstrate correct use of oxygen analyzer

Demonstrate correct cylinder management and labeling in accordance with local practices and/or regulations

Conduct simple pre-dive briefing (may be simulated if dives are not part of program)

Program nitrox computer, if used, with appropriate oxygen percentage

Log at least 1 nitrox cylinder analysis to include: MOD and oxygen content

Minimum age 18

Minimum certification of SDI Advanced Adventure Diver , Advanced<br /> Diver, or equivalent

Provide proof of 25 logged open water dives
