TEC 45 Takes your training as a tec diver further and deeper

The PADI Tec 45 course is the second part of the full PADI Tec Deep Diver program. Building on what you learned in the Tec 40 course, you focus on the function and maintenance of tec diving equipment and associated issues. You continue fine-tuning gas planning and calculating accelerated decompression stops.

You’ll extend your depth limit to 45 metres and learn to plan and execute repetitive decompression dives using a single stage/decompression cylinder.  You’ll also make accelerated decompression dives using EANx or pure oxygen.

You Will Learn

• The skills and equipment and planning need to dive to a maximum of 45 metres/145 feet
• The knowledge to plan and execute single and repetitive decompression dives using a single stage cylinder of EANx or oxygen to accelerate or add conservatism to the decompression stops.
• Prepare for and respond to foreseeable technical diving emergencies
• Master the basic skills and procedures you’ll need as you move into deeper technical diving
