reportActive / Technical Report | Accession Number: AD0874021 | Open PDF

Abstract:

The Naval Civil Engineering Laboratory NCEL awarded and monitored several contracts for aquanaut composite life support umbilicals and complementary equipment planned for use in the SEALAB III operation. Safety certification testing of the contract item was performed at the contractors factories and at NCEL. The accepted items were observed in use during SEALAB III aquanaut training sessions and were evaluated as to their potential use in an actual operation.
