This is a course where you rise to the challenge and commit to becoming a technical diver. The PADI Tec 45 course extends your depth limit to 45 metres. You will learn to plan and execute single and repetitive decompression dives using a single decompression cylinder with up to 100 percent oxygen. You will use double cylinders, which can be either back mount or sidemount diving configuration. Tec 45 is a prerequisite to Tec 50.
Contact us to get your Tec 45 Diver Crew-Pak which includes PADI Tec 45 Diver eLearning. You'll need to complete the eLearning independently before meeting with your PADI Tec 45 Instructor.
Your Tec 45 training consists of seven knowledge development sections, four practical application sessions and four open water dives. Building on what you learned in the Tec 40 course, you will focus on additional techniques, procedures, and emergency skills. You will learn more advanced decompression, gas planning, decompression models, and fine-tune your thinking like a technical diver.
You'll dive Air or EANx, including up to 50 percent enriched air for decompression.
