Operating submarine (maximum depth < 600 m)
SPIDER
Silvercrest Submarines
These versatile deep diving suits are an advanced design, one man atmospheric ADS, with an operating depth of 2000 feet (610m). The suits are light weight (1100kg), and can be rapidly mobilised to an offshore dive site, to complete a wide range of underwater observation and manipulative tasks. The ADS operator is at one atmosphere pressure at all times, thus dispensing with costly breathing gases, decompression chambers, and large surface support crews. The ADS operator can vary depth at will, and has the ability to hover midwater, or deploy horizontally, in order to accomplish the subsea task.
