Did you know
- The VIKING PS4170 immersion suit was introduced around June 2015, building on Viking's established range of safety equipment.
- The PS4170 is positioned as a high-quality, constant-wear anti-exposure and immersion suit, offering more advanced features and material (Gore-Tex® Pazifik™) compared to basic models like the PS2006 (a cargo suit) and offering different insulation options than the PS5002 (an arctic immersion suit with double insulation).
- This model is chosen for its combination of superior, breathable Gore-Tex® Pazifik™ outer fabric and a comfortable thermal lining, allowing for extended wear in various climates while providing SOLAS-approved thermal protection for 1 or 6 hours.
| Model | Outer Material | Thermal Protection (hours) | Buoyancy |
