ANDI - Advanced Nitrox Divers International

ANDI International (ANDI) is one of the world's fastest growing diver training agencies. ANDI began by specializing in training programs for Enriched Air Nitrox (SafeAir) diving. As a natural evolution from SafeAir®, ANDI developed training programs for what has now become known as Technical diving and Closed Circuit Rebreather systems. To meet the demands of international network training facilities, in 1999 ANDI introduced a unique methodology for training entry-level divers with the ANDI Open Water Sport Diver program.

Technical SafeAir Diver TSD - L3

This Level encompasses the first level of what has become known as "technical diving". In general, a more experienced recreational diver is the student prerequisite. Three cylinders and three gas mixes are the task loading limits unless otherwise specified. In addition the training is limited to 50m

Extended Range Diver ERD L4

This is still a 50-meter course; you will be using more equipment and more mixtures of gases. You will be using double tanks with two different mixtures of decompression gasses. Decompression is unlimited. This course has a minimum bottom time of 120 minutes and runtime of 240 minutes. Includes manuals, certification and diploma. Tanks and equipment not included.

Intermediate Tri-Mix Diver ITM L5

This course allows you to dive to 60 meters using helium, nitrogen and oxygen mixtures. This allows us to breathe a mixture that has less nitrogen narcosis allowing us to think more clearly. This course takes 5 days to complete. Boat trips, certification and manual included in this price. Helium, tanks and equipment are not included.

Max. Course Depth: 60m
Min. Course Depth: 50 m
Min. Dive Depth for Certification Credit: 40 m

Max. PO2 Deco: 1.6 PO2
Bottom Gas Limits - O2: 1.45 PO2
Bottom Gas Limits - N2: 3.6 PN2
Bottom Gas Limits – Helium: 16% or more
Theory Time: 5 - 7 Hrs
Dives: 4
Min. Bottom Time: 75 min
Min. Run Time: 240 min
Equipment configuration limitations: As Required
Prerequisites: ERD+ 200 Dives

Tri-Mix Diver TMD L5

The depth limit for the Tri-mix course is 100 meters. You will learn the importance of using helium to avoid oxygen toxicity and nitrogen narcosis. The same equipment will be used as in the Technical SafeAir Diver and Extended Range course. Tanks, equipment and helium are not included. The helium costs of the Instructors will be divided up between the students.

Max. Course Depth: 100 m
