At Deep Blue, we carefully select PPE from leading manufacturers and operate a rigorous inspection programme to ensure its ongoing quality and reliability. All servicing and inspections meet — and often exceed — current legislation and industry stakeholder requirements.
Pre and Post Inspection Process
At Deep Blue Our team of factory-trained and certified service technicians are the foremost experts in marine safety outfitting.
All of our fall arrest equipment is given a full visual inspection after every rental period. Six monthly inspections are carried out by manufacturers.
Life jackets and harnesses are inflated after each rental to check for leaks.
“Life of an immersions suit”
What does your immersion suit require so it will work when you need it?
You can survive in an immersion suit in extremely cold water for long periods of time. As an immersion suit gets older the fabric can break down naturally. Once the suit starts to deteriorate, buoyancy is lost. With age a suit’s glue can deteriorate causing leaks.
At Deep Blue we can test the suit to make sure it will save your life. When we service an immersion suit, we do a pressure test and look for leaks. We also lube up your zippers and can perform small repairs.
Servicing Includes:
- Inflation check of the high rider ring (if applicable)
- Pressure test each unit per manufacturer’s specifications
- Flashing Strobe Operation check
- UV Damage check
- Check that lights are in date
