Incredible piece of diving technology that cost over $30,000 new in the mid-1970s! This is an Interspace Systems PP-1, aka Porpoise Pack One rebreather system. The equipment included in this lot is the backpack, helmet, associated parts show in photos and padded case all this was transported in originally.
We encourage you to do a Internet search about the Interspace Systems Porpoise Pack One. There is some incredible background information about its development which we do not have space to go into here. This specific unit, number 307, was used during the mid-1970s. This unit was last used by Divers Academy International to train commercial diving students.
Please review the detailed photos. We did not attempt to clean or restore any aspects of the system. As to be expected, all the equipment could use a good cleaning after being in storage. Lastly, please note that the original Interspace case that houses the backpack is quite heavy. Please email us with your postal code for a shipping quote. This can also be picked up at Nations Attic facility in Wichita, Kansas.
