Are all BCDs can be used with Nitrox?

[MikeM_scuba]

I have IDI Advantage BC, don't know if I can use it with Nitrox.
I know that not all regulators work with Nitrox - for working with Nitrox regulator must have different greese, filters, something else.
Please help.

Are you sure?...Are the BC's O2 cleaned? I wouldn't want to blow up or something.

Basically, all scuba equipment can be used with mixes of 40% or less. In fact, tanks don't even need to necessarily be O2 cleaned if it's premix. The O2 cleaning is necessary for partial pressure blending, when you're putting 100% O2 into a tank and then adding grade E air. Plus, by the time it gets past the 1st stage, the pressure is reduced enough to not be a problem.

Are you nitrox certified yet? Was this covered?

If you are not yet nitrox certified but thinking ahead then it was a good question. While you may have found the aswer searching I don't recall this as being a frequent question at all. First time I hear it in a year of following the board.

Dive-aholic gave a good answer, I think.

Sad thing is, I could see an LDS doing this to an unknowing diver.
