2. Air – test procedure
1. Provide air into the suit, through the foot pump. Pressure should be from 0, 7 up to 1,4Kpa (0.1 to 0,2psi) [acc. MSC/Circ.1114.] Maintain the
pressure to those limits for the air-test. (It is normal that some bubbles appear at the zipper slides and at the zipper toothed part in the face xture).
2. Sprinkle along seams and closures of the immersion
suit with a soapy water solution.
3. Check carefully if any bubbles appear from the Immersion Suit and
mark properly the leaking areas of the suit.
3. Repair procedure
1. Adapt the applicator on the glue tube for use.
Remove the air-test device and clean the suit thoroughly with fresh water and dry it, trying to leave the marks visual.

2. Above is an example image of assembled face xtures with hood.
Apply a gentle amount of glue on the marked leaking areas. Let it dry
for 8-10 minutes. Then apply once again, a glue layer on the immersion
suit damaged area. Let it dry for 8 hours.
