Kent Safety 154000-200-004-13 Immersion Suit USCG Universal skin care

USCG Approved Immersion Suit

The Kent Safety 154000-200-004-13 is a commercial immersion suit built to USCG requirements for vessel operators and crew who must carry approved survival gear. Its universal orange sizing fits a broad range of body types without the need for multiple stock-keeping units. Articulated arms and a three-fingered mitt design make donning faster during an emergency. A neoprene pocket secures a personal locator beacon and accepts standard attachment lights.

Thermal Protection and Visibility

Five-millimetre neoprene construction provides insulation in cold water while the hi-viz yellow inflatable pillow, face mask and ankle adjustments increase the wearer’s visibility to rescuers. The removable head pillow simplifies inspection and servicing between deployments. No powered systems are present, so there is no noise or electrical draw during normal storage or use. The suit relies entirely on passive thermal retention and high-contrast colouring.

Sustained Immersion Behaviour

During prolonged exposure the neoprene maintains its thickness and flexibility, preserving the suit’s insulating properties without the compression loss seen in thinner materials. Seams and closures are designed to remain watertight over extended periods in the water. The integrated PLB pocket keeps a beacon secure and accessible throughout a long rescue scenario. Buyers needing a suit certified to additional regulatory standards beyond USCG, or requiring a non-universal size range, should consider other options.
