| Explanation | |||||||||
| The table below shows the maximum amount of allowable oxygen at various depths. | |||||||||
| PPo2 is partial pressure, and shows the work load the diver can expect. 1.4 is a stressfull dive and 1.6 | |||||||||
| is a restfull dive. Divers should air on the side of caution. A wrong choice in partial pressure to use can | |||||||||
| result in convulsions due to oxygen toxicity. DO NOT USE THESE TABLE IF YOU | |||||||||
| ARE NOT A CERTIFIED NITROX DIVER. You should were ever possible base your maximum depth on 1.4. | |||||||||
