WARNINGS: • The i100 is intended for use by recreational divers who have successfully completed a internationally recognized course in scuba diving (for air use) and diving with enriched nitrogen-oxygen (nitrox) breathing gas mixtures (for nitrox use). • It must not be used by untrained persons who may not have knowledge of the potential risks and hazards of scuba diving and diving with enriched nitrogen-oxygen (nitrox) mixtures. • You must obtain scuba certification in diving with enriched nitrogen-oxygen mixtures (nitrox) before using the i100 for nitrox diving. • It is NOT for use by military and commercial divers. • As with all underwater life support equipment, improper use or misuse of this product can cause serious injury or death. • Never participate in sharing or swapping of a dive computer. • Conduct your dives in such a manner so as to insure that you continuously check the computer's proper function. • Read and understand this owner’s manual completely before diving with the i100. • If you do not fully understand how to use this dive computer or if you have any questions, you should seek instruction in its use from your authorized Aqua Lung dealer before you utilize this product. • If your i100 stops working for any reason while operating, it is important that you have anticipated this possibility and are prepared for it. This is an important reason for not pushing the tables, oxygen exposure limits, or entering decompression without proper training. If you dive in situations where your trip would be ruined or your safety would be jeopardized by losing the use of your i100, a backup instrument system is highly recommended. • Each numeric and graphic display represents a unique piece of information. It is imperative that you understand the formats, ranges, and values of the information represented to avoid any possible misunderstanding that could result in error. • Remember that technology is no substitute for common sense. The dive computer only provides the person using it with data, not the knowledge to use it. Remember also that the dive computer does not actually measure and test the composition of your body tissue and blood. Using an Aqua Lung dive computer, just as using any other Decompression Tables, is no guarantee of avoiding decompression sickness. Every diver’s physiology is different and can even vary from day to day. No machine can predict how your body will react to a particular dive profile. • Diving at high altitude requires special knowledge of the variations imposed upon divers, their activities, and their equipment by the decrease in atmospheric pressures. Aqua Lung recommends completion of a specialized altitude training course by a recognized training agency prior to diving in high altitude lakes or rivers. • Repetitive dives in a series should only be conducted at the same altitude as that of the first dive of that series. Repetitive dives made at a different altitude will result in an error equal to the difference in barometric pressure, and possibly a false dive mode with erroneous data. • If the i100 is activated at an elevation higher than 4,270 m (14,000 ft), it will immediately shutdown. • Decompression diving or diving deeper than 39 m (130 ft) will greatly increase your risk of decompression sickness. This should only be attempted by those properly trained and certified in decompression diving. It is important to completely understand the features, functions, and specifically the limitations of the i100. Based on this the diver must decide if the i100 is suitable for the dive activities and dive profiles being planned. • Using an i100 is no guarantee of avoiding decompression sickness. • The i100 enters Violation Mode when a situation exceeds its capacity to predict an ascent procedure. These dives represent gross excursions into decompression that are beyond the boundaries and spirit of the i100's design. If you are following these dive profiles, Aqua Lung advises that you should not use an i100. • If you exceed certain limits, the i100 will not be able to help you get safely back to the surface. These situations exceed tested limits and can result in loss of some functions for 24 hours after the dive in which a violation occurred. © Aqua Lung International, Inc.

  • Saturation Diving Is Used for Deep Salvage Or Recovery Using U.S
    CHAPTER 15 6DWXUDWLRQ'LYLQJ 15-1 INTRODUCTION 15-1.1 Purpose. The purpose of this chapter is to familiarize divers with U.S. Navy satu- ration diving systems and deep diving equipment. 15-1.2 Scope. Saturation diving is used for deep salvage or recovery using U.S. Navy deep diving systems or equipment. These systems and equipment are designed to support personnel at depths to 1000 fsw for extended periods of time. SECTION ONE — DEEP DIVING SYSTEMS 15-2 APPLICATIONS The Deep Diving System (DDS) is a versatile tool in diving and its application is extensive. Most of today’s systems employ a multilock deck decompression chamber (DDC) and a personnel transfer capsule (PTC). Non-Saturation Diving. Non-saturation diving can be accomplished with the PTC pressurized to a planned depth. This mode of operation has limited real time application and therefore is seldom used in the U.S. Navy. Saturation Diving. Underwater projects that demand extensive bottom time (i.e., large construction projects, submarine rescue, and salvage) are best con- ducted with a DDS in the saturation mode. Conventional Diving Support. The DDC portion of a saturation system can be employed as a recompression chamber in support of conventional, surface- supplied diving operations. 15-3 BASIC COMPONENTS OF A SATURATION DIVE SYSTEM The configuration and the specific equipment composing a deep diving system vary greatly based primarily on the type mission for which it is designed. Modern systems however, have similar major components that perform the same functions despite their actual complexity. Major components include a PTC, a PTC handling system, and a DDC.

  • TDI Advanced Nitrox Diver
    TDI Advanced Nitrox Diver Are you looking to expand your dive time? Maybe you’re a scientific diver or photographer looking to stay in the water a little longer?The TDI Advanced Nitrox Course qualifies divers to use enriched air nitrox from EAN 21 through EAN 100 percent within your current certification level to a maximum depth of 40 metres/130 feet during dives that do not require staged decompression. Often taught in conjunction with the TDI Decompression Procedures course, this can be considered the foundation of your technical diving career. TDI Advanced Nitrox is also a must for SCR or CCR divers. Who this course is for: • The certified nitrox diver looking to expand their understanding of nitrox mixtures containing more than 40% oxygen • The certified nitrox diver looking to expand their in-water skills • The certified diver who has interest in moving forward with technical diving education Course prerequisites (these requirements must be met prior to the start of the course): • Minimum age 18, 15 with parental consent • Minimum certification of TDI Nitrox Diver or equivalent • Proof of 25 logged open water dives What you can expect to learn: Advanced Nitrox picks up where TDI Nitrox leaves off and offers a more in-depth look at diving with nitrox including: • Physics and physiology relating to diving with gas mixes containing more than 40% oxygen • Gas planning, dive tables, dive computers, oxygen limitations, nitrogen limitations • Equipment considerations, cylinder labeling, analyzing nitrox mixtures, gas blending procedures,

Over the years, manuals for diving safety have been circulated between organizations, revised and modified for local implementation, and have resulted in an enviable safety record. This document represents the minimal safety standards for scientific diving at the present day. As diving science progresses so shall this standard, and it is the responsibility of every member of the Academy to see that it always reflects state of the art, safe diving practice. American Academy of Underwater Sciences ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS The Academy thanks the numerous dedicated individual and organizational members for their contributions and editorial comments in the production of these standards.
