Table 9-7. Residual Nitrogen Timetable for Repetitive Air Dives.

Locate the divers repetitive group designation from his previous dive along the diagonal line
above the table. Read horizontally to the interval in which the divers surface interval lies.

Next, read vertically downward to the new repetitive group designation. Continue
downward in this same column to the row that represents the depth of theal
rvrepetitive dive. The time given at the intersection is
D
residual nitrogen time, inte
inminutes, to be applied to the repetitive
fa dive.
0:10
* Dives following surface intervals of more than 12ce
hours are not
repetitive dives. Use actual bottom times in the Standard Air
Decompression Tables to compute decompression for such dives.

** If no Residual Nitrogen Time is given, then the

repetitive group does not change.

Residual Nitrogen Times (MInutes)

Read vertically downward to the 40/12.2 (feet/meter) repetitive dive depth. Use the corresponding residual nitrogen times
(minutes) to compute the equivalent single dive time. Decompress using the 40/12.2 (feet/meter) standard air decompression
table.
