DSAT PADI Tec 40
DSAT PADI Tec 40 Course
If you're interested in technical diving, but haven't yet met the prerequisites for the PADI Tec 50 Diver course or PADI
Tec 45 course, you can consider enrolling in the PADI Tec 40 course. It is the first subdivision of the full PADI Tec Deep Diver course and consists of the first four dives. Because you can do one of these dives in confined water (such as a swimming pool), many divers start the Tec 40 courses in the winter months, ready to continue in open water when spring arrives.
You will learn to
Use decompression software and dive computers to plan and make decompression dives with no more than 10 minutes of total decompression and not deeper than 40 metres.
Use a single cylinder of decompression gas with up to 50 percent oxygen (EANx50) to add conservatism to the required decompression
Since it's part of the course, your PADI Tec 40 Course training credits toward the PADI Tec 45 Diver and Tec 50 courses
The Scuba Gear You Use
You use recreational scuba equipment, with some minor additions to enhance your ability to deal with tec diving
conditions.
The Learning Materials You Need
You'll use the Tec Deep Diver Crew-Pak, which introduces you to
tec diving lingo
emergency procedures
decompression and stage cylinder handling
gas planning
The pak includes a manual, dive planning checklist and dive planning slate. The optional Equipment Set-up and Key Skills video on DVD is a great tool to help you practice at home in between your tec diving adventures. You'll continue to use the Tec Deep Diver Crew-Pak through the Tec 50 course.
