You’ll also learn about safety considerations such as fire hazards and combustible materials such as oil that can cause explosions when in contact with O2. From your PADI manual you will learn how to assemble and disassemble emergency oxygen equipment as well as adjust the recommended flow rates for the diver in need.

Prerequisites

Though suited for divers, this course has no prerequisites and doesn’t include any dives, which means it is equally applicable to those who are around divers – boat crew, non-diving buddies, lifeguards, and shore staff.
