Nitrox & Trimix
- Nitrox fills are extra and start at £8.00 and increase at a rate of 1.7p per litre of oxygen added. Trimix is charged at a rate of 3p per litre of helium added to the mix.
- We pump air Nitrox and Trimix to 240bar, please note that although pumped to 240 cylinders will cool back.
- Please note that we have a responsibility of care to our customers so please don't ask us for a Nitrox mix that will exceed the maximum depth that could be attained during a particular dive.
- That said you also have a responsibility to yourselves and although we don't expect every diver using Nitrox to have their own Oxygen Analyser we do expect to see at least one within a group of 12 divers.
- Remember our Analyser should only ever be a second to your own.
- CYLINDER HIRE
We have 12 sets of manifolded twin twelves
12 sets of 11 litre Ally cylinders for use as side mounts.
We also have 12 sets of 15 litre cylinders.
The price is £50 per week for manifolded twinsets and £30 per week for single cylinders.
This facillity allows our customers the opportunity to fly into Orkney, so even if you are not diving with us and are booked on another boat, it may still be possible for you to hire your cylinders from us.
- Rebreathers are welcome. We have a Haskel Booster pump onboard to provide our Rebreather customers with up to 240bar Oxygen fills.
- Please let us know in advance if you want us to provide you with Sofnolime.
- What to bring with you? We can only provide you with cylinders and lead
weights so you will need to bring all your own personal diving equipment. In addition we would strongly advise that you bring a SMB and a means of deploying it.
- Don't forget to bring your own weight belt/strap.
- If diving with Nitrox don't forget to bring your Oxygen Analyser.
