Dive computers offer the diver a safer and much more convenient way of monitoring decompression limits. A dive computer can also calculate the body’s nitrogen according to the diver's depth and time, allowing for a diving profile that is much more flexible than the square profiles provided by the conventional dive tables. Today's diving computers display current depth, maximum depth, dive time, and records the diver’s entire information throughout the dive. Owning a dive computer can eliminate the need to have a pressure gauge and depth gauge. Other features may include: audible and/or visual alarms, user changeable batteries, pc downloadable to record dive log information and countdown for time to fly. Air integrated computers have features that allow the diver to set alarms for turn around pressure or low on air pressure. Many will calculate time remaining for the dive based on the divers air consumption. If the computer is a hose less model, all of the information is transmitted to a wrist unit and eliminates the high pressure hose which streamlines the diver’s equipment.
Hoseless or wrist dive computers can be mounted in a console, on the wrist, on a hose or even on a retractor. How a dive computer is mounted is dependent on the diver’s preference and the computer's configuration.
Choose a Nitrox dive computer
Many dive computers are configured for Nitrox which allows the diver to use air or Enriched Air Nitrox. These dive computers offer all the same features of the air computers, but can easily be programmed for whatever mixture of Nitrox the diver is using. "All other conditions being equal, a diver on Nitrox 36 will consume about 12 percent less gas than a diver on normal air." - According to Scuba Lab. |
