,Objective of Ocean Diver Training
✔✔ Prepares divers to explore open water up to 20 meters deep, with supervision
from a dive manager in suitable and safe conditions.
Objective of Discovery Diver Level
✔✔ Permits diving to a maximum depth of 12 meters under direct, in-water
supervision from a qualified Dive Leader.
What Is the BSAC Council?
✔✔ A group of elected volunteers who oversee the management and governance
of BSAC for the benefit of its members.
Atmospheric Pressure Explained
✔✔ At sea level, the pressure exerted by the atmosphere on a 1 cm² area is equal
to 1 bar, or roughly 1 kg of force.
Understanding Water Pressure
✔✔ For every 10 meters of depth, water pressure increases by 1 bar. This is
added to the existing 1 bar of atmospheric pressure.
Tools for Measuring Water Depth
✔✔ Depth gauges are used to determine depth and thus calculate the pressure
experienced underwater, usually measured in meters.
Total Pressure at Different Depths
• 10m depth: 1 bar (water) + 1 bar (air) = 2 bar
• 20m depth: 2 bar (water) + 1 bar (air) = 3 bar

, Effect of Pressure on Air Volumes ✔✔
As pressure increases, air compresses.
• At 2 bar, air volume is reduced to ½
• At 3 bar, it’s reduced to ⅓
• At 4 bar, it becomes ¼ of the original volume
Human Body Water Content
✔✔ Approximately 80% of the human body is made up of water.
Key Features of a Dive Mask
✔✔
• Sturdy frame for durability
• Tempered glass to prevent shattering
• Soft silicone seal for comfort and water-tight fit
• Rinse in freshwater after use
• Avoid drying in direct sunlight to preserve the silicone’s flexibility
Fins - ANSWER✔✔Either shoe fin with foot pocket (in warm conditions) or strap
fin (over boots, with strap or spring to keep in place) - wash in fresh water and dry
standing on food pocket end
SCUBA acronym - ANSWER✔✔self contained underwater breathing apparatus
