(DECOMPRESSION DIVING)
The PSAI Advanced Rebreather Diver course is designed for those divers who wish to use a Semi-Closed or Closed Circuit Rebreather with Nitrox pre-mix or an air diluent during their decompression diving activities.
Note:
Depth Qualification following successful completion of this course is commensurate with the students own diving experience and choice of rebreather. These PSAI parameters are offered as maximum depths:
If PSAI Advanced Nitrox certificate is taught as part of the course the student will be assessed as diving to a maximum of 45 metres and able to undertake correct decompression diving skills and stops. The PSAI Advanced Nitrox certificate will also be issued. If previous formal experience shows training in decompression skills diving then the additional Advanced Nitrox qualification need not be issued but 45 metres will still remain the maximum depth permissible.
Where a student wishes to undertake non-decompression diving on a rebreather following this standard, the maximum depth qualification will be maximum 40 metres. The qualification will be Sport Rebreather Diver, not Advanced Rebreather Diver.
