Atmospheric Suits

This hard metal dive suit allows divers to operate safely down to a depth of 1000 feet and yet still have exceptional dexterity and flexibility to perform delicate work. The amazing technology of the EXOSUIT atmospheric diving system (ADS) maintains a cabin pressure of the surface and still allows the suit to bend due to a unique rotary joint.

Description

The Atmospheric Suit—a cutting-edge dive system designed to excel at depths of up to 1,000 feet. Engineered with the revolutionary EXOSUIT Atmospheric Diving System (ADS), this advanced suit maintains surface-level cabin pressure, shielding divers from the immense pressures of the deep ocean while delivering unparalleled functionality.

What makes the Atmospheric Suit extraordinary is its innovative rotary joint technology, which allows for remarkable dexterity and flexibility even in the harshest underwater environments. Whether you're conducting intricate scientific research, performing complex underwater maintenance, or venturing into uncharted territories, this suit empowers you to move and work with ease and confidence.

Deep-Sea Capability: Rated for safe operation at depths of up to 1,000 feet.
