DSAT Trimix Diver
Why DSAT Tec Trimix Diver Course?
For the extreme diver ready to further explore the world of technical
deep diving, the gas of choice is trimix. The DSAT Tec Trimix Diver
course takes you to the outer edges of technical deep diving, opening
the door to pristine dive sites few divers – if any – ever see.
What do I need to start?
Certified as a PADI Rescue Diver or have a qualifying certification in
diver rescue and accident management from another organization.
Students who meet this
through a qualifying non-PADI certification need to provide proof of CPR and
first aid training within the previous two years.
Certified as a DSAT Tec Deep Diver or have a qualifying certification in deep
decompression diving using air/enriched air from another organization.
Students who qualify through a qualifying certification other than DSAT
Tec Deep Diver must read the entire DSAT Tec Deep Diver Manual and
complete the Knowledge Reviews prior to beginning the Tec Trimix Diver course.
What will I do?
The DSAT Tec Trimix Diver course is intended to extend the depth range
available to technical divers trained and qualified to use air,
enriched air and oxygen for technical decompression dives beyond 50
metres/165 feet in open water. The DSAT Tec Trimix Diver course is
intended for technical divers certified as DSAT Tec Deep Divers (or
qualifying certification from another training organization). The
course extends their depth range capabilities by training them in the
use of trimix (helium, oxygen and nitrogen).
What will I need?
Tec Trimix Student Manual and the Tec Deep Diver Manual
The goals of the Trimix course are to train students to dive to 75
metres/245 feet using various trimix blends, enriched air and oxygen
with open circuit scuba equipment. The course builds upon the
fundamentals of technical diving learned in the ‘Tec Deep’ course and
further trains students in the planning, motor skills and emergency
contingency procedures required for technical trimix diving. This
course is taught along our beautiful local reefs, north side walls and
outer sea banks which give our students the widest variety of diving
environments possible to prepare them for their future trimix
dives. Academic knowledge is developed by independent study of
the student diver ‘Trimix’ manual and ‘Tec Deep’ manual where
appropriate and application through briefings, practical sessions, dive
planning and completed knowledge reviews and tests. There is 1
water skills assessment dive and 8 open water training dives though for
students with ‘DSAT Tec Deep’ certification the course can be completed
with 6 open water training dives. Prerequisites for the course
include being certified as a DSAT Tec Deep diver, or equivalent
certification from another organization, minimum age 18 years old with
training in emergency rescue and 150 logged dives. The course can
be completed in 6 days.
