Decompression diving on a closed-circuit rebreather to 40 m with air or nitrox diluent and formal decompression. TDI rebreather courses are unit specific. Train with NexGen Divers in Hurghada.
Who it suits
Air Diluent CCR divers ready to move into decompression diving, or open-circuit tec divers who want to make that step on a rebreather.
Prerequisites
Minimum age 18, and one of two routes:
- Route A: 50 logged dives, Advanced Nitrox and Decompression Procedures, and 5 staged decompression dives to 30 m or deeper.
- Route B: Air Diluent CCR Diver, with 30 hours and 30 dives on the unit and 6 months of CCR experience.
Training
TDI minimum: 60 minutes in confined water and 7 open water dives totalling 420 minutes.
Our training rebreather
The Dive Rite O2ptima CM clips to the front of your existing harness and is compatible with sidemount, back-mounted doubles or a single tank (Dive Rite). At NexGen we dive it with sidemount cylinders as our open-circuit bailout. It uses Dive Rite's dive/surface valve (DSV) and was not designed for a bailout valve (BOV). Dive Rite rates it to 40 m on air diluent.
