Drager Dolphin Rebreather Course

Experience diving as never before with the Drager Dolphin semi-closed circuit rebreather. For the first time you can experience the silent world with no noisy valves, no hissing air, and only a tiny number of exhaust bubbles. Many ordinarily shy inhabitants of the ocean seem to hardly notice your presence while using a rebreather.

Drager Dolphin Rebreather

With the optimal reuse of your breathing gas, your consumption drops by up to 90%, meaning the Dolphin cylinder may last for a whole weekend of diving. The chemical reaction involved in the absorption of carbon dioxide in a rebreather generates heat and moisture.  You will enjoy pleasantly warm and moist inhaled air, making even ice diving more comfortable.  Also, the lower level of nitrogen in nitrox increases your no-decompression limits.
The Drager Dolphin rebreather is now in wide circulation, with rental units available in many travel destinations and on board many of the live aboard dive boats.

This course will cover assembly and disassembly, maintenance, choosing correct nitrox mixtures, buoyancy control and more. The classroom session will be followed by a pool session and three open water certification dives.
