Hallo,
do you ask reload the torpedoes? If so, yes.
The depth of that action was establish by the sea state, I think. Storms and harsh sea state would impose a reload submerge, at a depth when the boat was stabilized. They also did the same if a surgical intervention had to be done.
Calm seas would make them reload at surface. They normally took the a torpedo out of the tube, perform maintenance at it and reload it again, as a normal duty, more in the electrical then the G7a(steam powered).
