Nitrox extends your bottom time
While some say Nitrox enables you to dive longer than with air, this is a myth. The level of PSI (BAR) in your tank stays the same. Nitrox merely extends your dive time such that you can stay longer at greater depths. This is possible due to the lower nitrogen level in enriched air Nitrox compared to normal air. Furthermore, it permits you to dive longer on repetitive dives and shortens your surface interval. However, with enriched air at AB-Dive you will dive longer as well. Our modern machines fill our tanks up to 3200 PSI (220 BAR) instead of the 2800 PSI you will get in most other places.
