Planned Dry Dive At Midlands Diving Chamber

7/8/2014

0 Comments

 
We are planning a dry dive at the Midlands Diving Chamber in Rugby.
(November) and the cost is £40.00 for the 50m dive.
Some members of the club have had the fantastic pleasure of experiencing being down at 50 meters in a chamber and the narcosis effects it can have on you as a diver. It's great fun and you can log the experience as a dive, so if you fancy a dry dive please contact me to arrange a date.


For the 50m dive:

  • The divers fill in a self-declaration medical form. Any questions ticked YES must be covered by a Dive Doctor's clearance form. (These can be done at MDC with enough notice).
  • Divers change into scrubs (provided).
  • After a briefing, divers (maximum of 10) enter the chamber accompanied by an MDC supervisor.
  • The chamber is compressed to 50m.
  • After maximum bottom time is reached, decompression begins.
  • Divers decompress on a 100% oxygen.
  • On coming out of the chamber there will be a post-dive briefing and time for questions and logbook stamping.
Please remember that like a wet dive, a dry dive does carry a risk of DCI, although an extremely minimal one as the environment is carefully controlled. Please report any abnormal symptoms immediately.
