23、or United States Coast Guard (USCG) approval under 46 CFR 160.171. 1.2 The suits covered by these requirements are intended to reduce the occurrence of shock to the wearer upon entering cold water and retard the onset of hypothermia (reduce the rate of body heat loss during periods of immersion in w

24、ater). Immersion suits are required by the USCG to provide thermal protection properties in accordance with USCG regulations see Thermal Protection Test, Section 22 in this standard and 46 CFR 160.171-17(d). 1.3 These requirements cover immersion suits that incorporate auxiliary, inatable means to p

25、rovide buoyancy as well as suits that rely only on inherently buoyant material to provide the required otation characteristics. 2 Units of Measurement 2.1 Values stated without parentheses are the requirement. Values in parentheses are explanatory or approximate information. 3 Undated References 3.1

26、 Any undated reference to a code or standard appearing in the requirements of this standard shall be interpreted as referring to the latest edition of that code or standard. 4 Components 4.1 Except as indicated in 4.2, a component of a product covered by this standard shall comply with the requireme

27、nts for the Standard for Components for Personal Flotation Devices, UL 1191, and when the United States Coast Guard has specic requirements for the components, it shall comply with those requirements rst. 4.2 A component is not required to comply with a specic requirement that: a) Involves a feature

28、 or characteristic not required in the application of the component in the product covered by this standard, or b) Is superseded by a requirement in this standard. 4.3 A component shall be used in accordance with its rating established for the intended conditions of use. 4.4 Specic components are in

29、complete in construction features or restricted in performance capabilities. Such components are intended for use only under limited conditions, such as certain temperatures not exceeding specied limits, and shall be used only under those specic conditions.

31、e surface of the water to the lowest point where the wearers respiration is impeded. The freeboard of a test subject wearing an immersion suit is measured with the subject in the attitude of static balance in which respiration is not impeded. 5.4 RETROREFLECTIVE MATERIAL A material that reects light

32、 so that the paths of the light rays are parallel to the incident rays. 5.5 STRUCTURAL SEAM A seam that serves a functional purpose in the end product as distinguished from a decorative function. 6 Materials 6.1 Metal hardware shall: a) Be AISI Type 410 stainless steel; or b) Have at least equivalen

33、t resistance to corrosion when subject to the Corrosion Resistance Test, Section 32. 6.2 Metals shall be used in combinations that are galvanically compatible. 6.3 The primary (inherent) buoyancy of an immersion suit shall be provided by foam. Loose or granular materials shall not be relied upon to

34、provide buoyancy; however, inatable compartments intended to provide auxiliary buoyancy are not prohibited. See Stability and Retroreective Material Tests, Section 18. 6.4 Adhesive shall be an all-purpose, waterproof type intended for use with the materials being bonded. CONSTRUCTION 7 General 7.1 A

35、n oral ination mechanism shall not be able to be locked in the open or closed position.

37、 110 to 330 pounds (50 to 150 kg) in weight; and b) 59 to 75 inches (1.5 to 1.9 m) in height. 8.1.3 A child size immersion suit shall be constructed to t persons ranging from: a) 44 to 110 pounds (20 to 50 kg) in weight; and b) 39 to 59 inches (1.0 to 1.5 m) in height. 8.1.4 An oversize-adult immers

38、ion suit shall be constructed to t persons too large for the adult size immersion suit. 8.1.5 An immersion suit shall be constructed to facilitate donning by an untrained person and shall be as comfortable and nonrestrictive of motion and vision as practicable, consistent with its intended purpose.

39、See Sections 12 16. 8.1.6 An immersion suit shall be accompanied by a storage case or similar protection, which shall be formed of either: a) Vinyl-coated fabric; or b) Material that provides equivalent protection to the suit when stored. Also, see Storage-Temperature Ambient Tests, Section 23, and

40、Flame Exposure Tests, Section 27. 8.1.7 The primary color of the exterior surface of each suit shall be vivid reddish orange (color number 34 of National Bureau of Standards Publication 440).
