Cold Van C-1

Cold vans are often outfitted with a fume hood, but these can be removed to maximize space per science party needs, as this van experienced in Dec 2020.

Scientist Tomoko Komada used C-1 for her work aboard the SIKULIAQ in Dec 2020.

C-1 is the only van with both doors adjacent to each other; they both enter the vestibule area to help control temperature fluctuations.

C-1's utility hookups are at the vestibule end, enclosed with some of the chiller equipment.
