Explain In-water decompression on air and oxygen. |
- 30 - 20 fsw stops on O2 - air breaks every :30 - if the final O2 period is 35 minuets or less, a final air break at the 30 minute mark is not required. |

- Surface after 40 fsw stop @ 40 fpm. - :05 surface interval from 40 fsw to 50' feet in the chamber |
|
Explain Surface Decompression from 30 and 20 fsw. |
- Diving supervisor can initiate surface decompression at any point during in-water decompression at 30 or 20 fsw. - Before shift to 02, use O2 periods as perscribed - After shift, calculate new O2 periods required - Remaining O2 time X 1.1 round minutes up to next half period |
