Talk:Atmospheric diving suit

message: There is a book, I believe it is titled 'Great Lakes' first submarine: L.D. Phillips' "Fool Killer" ' that documents the creations of Lodner Phillips. I haven't read the book in some time, but I believe it sites a newspaper article from a Chicago paper that documents his use of the "Iron suit," which would suggest that the suit was actually built and used. I will try and verify this information and, if correct, cite it in the article. Nlalic 07:01, 16 October 2006 (UTC)
thread_title: Lodner Phillip's diving suit - construction

message: The United States Navy has made a big deal in the media regarding their August dive to 2000ft in one of OceanWork's HARDSUIT 2000s, claiming it to be the world record. My justification for removing it from Wikipedia is simple: Oceaneering, using their WASP suits, went to 2150ft in the Gulf of Mexico during a pipeline repair, photos of which can be found here: World's Deepest Pipeline Repair --UD75 18:08, 31 December 2006 (UTC)
thread_title: Depth Correction

message: There's an article from Underwater Magazine about Oceaneering's contribution to Atmospheric Diving, and the evolution of the WASP 1, 2 and 3 suits located here: http://www.underwater.com/archives/arch/025.07.shtml I'm putting it here rather in the article to avoid it looking like an advertising campaign, but it's still worth a read. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by UD75 (talk • contribs) 18:28, 31 December 2006 (UTC)

message: It would be nice if the article said how these suits were used currrently. That was why I was reading it. However, I don't know enough about the topic. Maybe someone else does?WacoJacko 08:55, 7 June 2007 (UTC)

Are you sure?

thread_title:  Air supply time 

message: The article states The ADS can be used for very deep dives of up to 2300 feet (700m)... but I only found references for a maximum depth of 2000 feet deep (609 metres). I brought the reference for the 2006 record, can anybody bring facts for the supposedly reached depth of ? Kintaro (talk) 14:19, 12 September 2011 (UTC)
replies: text: The article presently isn't even consistent (the lead says 700m, the figure-caption asserts a lesser record). If you had waybacked the references given above, you should have found an article including photographs of WASP Operator, Tom Weeks celebrating with a cuban stogie and sunglasses after his last dive to 2150 fsw, the world's deepest pipeline repair  and more detail by googling  (which gives the suit depth limit as 2300', there you go). I don't know what the reliability is of either these sources nor the rival ones for the US navy at 2000', and it would hardly be too suprising if competing record contenders were simply unaware of each other (this is the kind of synthesis that encyclopedias are good for).

replies: text: I added a cite to the WASP spec sheet, which does indeed show a depth limit of 2300 feet. The "depth record" conflict in the last paragraph still needs to be cleaned up. Jgs42 (talk) 19:36, 27 February 2014 (UTC)
thread_title:  700 metres? 

message: Would be nice if the article included a picture of a WASP suit. IIRC it has a black cylindrical lower body with thrusters and the upper body is yellow and similar to the JIM suit model with the large dome on top. Bizzybody (talk) 19:34, 28 February 2014 (UTC)
thread_title:  Picture of a WASP? 

message: "The oil, which was virtually non-compressible and readily displaceable, allowed the limb joints to move freely at depths of 600 ft (180 m), where the pressure was 520 psi (35 atm)."
At 180M your pressure in sea water is not 35 atm it is 18.8567 atm (given that density of sea water is 1025 kg/m³ approx) 
So I don't know if they got their depth wrong or their pressure but I'm assuming pressure.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 87.114.52.114 (talk) 22:24, 23 September 2014 (UTC)
thread_title:  incorrect pressures/depths  

message: This article really needs some help. Starting a clean-up. I also see that the old myth that the US Navy holds the depth record has returned... duly removed. --ADSDeeps (talk) 10:31, 9 October 2014 (UTC)

message: The article mentions this suit is in the Musée National de la Marine in Paris, but since March 2017, and until some time in 2021, this is on display in the Musée des Arts et Métiers, since the Maritime Museum is being renovated. See https://www.arts-et-metiers.net/musee/le-scaphandre-carmagnolle-fait-escale-au-musee for details of the display and http://www.musee-marine.fr/sites/default/files/cp-_laureat_du_concours_darchitecte_-_renovation.pdf for the current details of the renovation. Not sure this is worth an update to the article, but for anyone who wanted to see it (and Arts et Métiers is well worth a visit, IMO), now you know. Bazzargh (talk) 01:35, 5 July 2019 (UTC)
