What Does EANX Stand For?

EANX stands for Enriched Air Nitrox

EANX, or Enriched Air Nitrox, is a specialized gas mixture used in recreational diving that consists of oxygen and nitrogen, with a higher percentage of oxygen than standard air. This blend allows divers to reduce nitrogen absorption, thereby minimizing the risks of decompression sickness and extending bottom time at certain depths. EANX is particularly favored for its benefits in both safety and enhancing overall diving experiences. Divers must complete appropriate training to utilize EANX safely and effectively.
