Summary

Japan Marine Science and Technology Center (JAMSTEC) has constructed a manned submersible system whose maximum depth capability is 6500 m and which consists of a submersible "Shinkai 6500" and its support vessel "Yokosuka". The air-conditioning equipment of the submersibles is functioning as the life-support system instead of comfort air conditioning. Any imbalance in oxygen and carbon dioxide levels is a matter of vital importance.
