The added advantage of having a decompression ceiling and floor is that it recognizes that in
rough water, it might be dicult to maintain the exact depth to optimize decompression. By
maintaining a depth below the ceiling but above the floor, the diver is still decompressing,
although slower than optimal, and provides an additional buer to minimize the risk that
waves will lift the diver above the ceiling. Also, the continuous decompression curve used by
Suunto provides a much smoother and a more natural decompression profile than the
traditional “step” decompression.
Suunto EON Steel Black has a feature of displaying the decompression ceiling. The optimal
decompression occurs in the decompression window, which is displayed by both upward and
downward arrows. If the ceiling depth is violated, a downward pointing arrow and an audible
alarm will prompt the diver to descend back to the decompression window.
Stepped decompression
profile
In this decompression profile the ascent has divided into traditional 3 m (10 ft) steps or stages.
In this model diver will decompress at traditional fixed depths.
NOTE: Decompression profile selection is available for EON Steel Black devices and
EON Steel devices with software update 2.5.
