Lesson 3: Planning Repetitive Dives
Table 3 Repetitiev Dive Time
Table 3: Repetitive Dive Time
During the Table 1 lesson you learned how to determine maximum dive times and end-of-dive letter groups for your first dive.

Those processes do not apply to repetitive dives because Table 1 does not take into account the amount of residual nitrogen in your body when you begin a repetitive dive.

To determine maximum dive times and end-of-dive letter groups for repetitive dives, we use Table 3. In this lesson, you'll learn how to perform these tasks.

Lesson Objectives
After this lesson, you will be able to:
  • Define key dive table terms.
  • Determine the adjusted maximum dive time for a specified repetitive dive.
  • Determine the minimum required surface interval for a planned repetitive dive.
  • Determine your letter group following a specified repetitive dive.
