Tec 45 - Open Circuit
Takes your training as a tec diver further and deeper
The PADI Tec 45 Course with Divers Incorporated
The PADI Tec 45 course is an intermediate-level technical diving program that builds upon the skills acquired in the Tec 40 course. It is designed to extend your depth limit to 45 meters/145 feet and teaches you to plan and execute single and repetitive decompression dives using air, enriched air, and oxygen. The course emphasizes the use of a single decompression gas up to 100% oxygen to accelerate decompression. With Divers Incorporated, the option to use Normoxic trimix is available as well.
