TDI JJ-CCR Air Diluent Decompresesion Procedure Diver
Are you an open circuit technical diver looking to cross over to the “silent” side? Or maybe you are a CCR Air Diluent Diver looking to progress to the next level? Either way, TDI’s CCR Air Diluent Decompression Course is the next step. Using the latest technology in CCR’s can maximize your gas supply and provide an optimum breathing gas for any depth by maintaining a constant partial pressure of oxygen. Like having a blending station on your back, a CCR is the ultimate tool for technical divers. During this course, your TDI Instructor will teach you all the necessary skills to conduct decompression CCR dives to a maximum depth of 40 metres/130 feet using air diluent.
The JJ CCR is a rugged and versatile rebreather developed for harsh wreck and cave environments. It has been called ‘the 4 x 4 of the rebreather community, which in many ways is the perfect description as it is built for all types of terrain and can be adapted to handle the most demanding adventures. There are many different CCRs on the market, but we firmly believe JJ CCR is one of the best! The JJ CCR is known for its robust construction, user-friendly design, and versatility. It is often used by technical divers who engage in deep or extended dives, where conventional open-circuit scuba diving equipment may be insufficient.
As with any diving equipment, it is essential to receive proper training and certification before using the JJ CCR or any rebreather system. Diving with a rebreather requires additional knowledge and skills beyond open-circuit scuba diving due to the different gas management and potential risks associated with closed-circuit systems.
