[rebreather]       

rebreather diver tech courses on koh tao

How a rebreather works is very simple. Already more than 120 years ago, Henry Fleuss, a self-taught engineer, believed that there had to be a way to make the diver independent of the air hose and the pump.
Fleuss reasoned that if the diver could carry a supply of oxygen and an alkali to remove carbon dioxide, he could eliminate the air supply from top side.
The first rebreather was born........

Later, around 1911, Dr Drager began developing more advanced rebreathers in Germany. In 1942 the first recreational use of rebreathers took place by Hans Hass. Today rebeathers are smaller and more compact. This is the dolphin unit you’ll be using during training!!

As Nitrox has become commonly available, the semi-closed rebreather is NOW accessible to the average recreational diver. The PADI rebreather specialty instructor course will provide you with training from a PADI Course Director on how to teach this specialty course.

You’ll have a close look on how to organize the confined sessions and the Open Water training dives, which require direct supervision, and how to teach the academic portion of this PADI programme.

The course will also provide you with in-depth information on how to prepare and maintain the rebreather unit. Making 3 dives on the Dolphin unit, while discovering and familiarizing with a complete new way of diving, will make it much easier for you to market this specialty programme.
Our course director can even take you a little further into this new experience, and teach you more about gas blending and decompression procedures.

As the prerequisites are tough, don’t waste any more time!!
