A dive suit, a piece or clothing that is designed to protect divers from the underwater environment, is called a "dive suit". A diving suit usually includes a supply of breathing gas, which is often referred as separately. Depending on what type of diving you are doing, your diving suit could be either one piece or a combination. There are many types of diving suits, such as a wetsuit or drysuit, helmet, semi-drysuit, and semi-drysuit.
Wetsuit
The thickness of the wetsuit is critical when choosing one. It is recommended that you use wetsuits three to five microns thick for water temperatures higher than 25°C. Thinner suits provide better mobility and buoyancy, but they sacrifice the warmth needed for colder dives.
A wetsuit may be made from different materials, depending on the weather conditions. Two-piece suits can be used for colder conditions. One-piece suits can be worn in mild temperatures. Wetsuits made of two-piece construction usually have a combined thickness of 10-14 millimeters of neoprene over the torso and a single layer of neoprene over the limbs.
Drysuit
Using a drysuit is a great choice for temperate to cold water diving, as it prevents the diver from overheating and losing body heat while underwater. A drysuit is made out of neoprene, which traps millions and trillions of gas bubbles to keep you warm. The material keeps the diver's body at 98.6°F, which is neutral buoyancy. You can also wear a boot or sock to add warmth.
A special hose is used to inflate drysuits. The regulator has a first stage that connects to the hose. Once the diver is ready for more air, the valve will open and push the inflate switch. A dump valve is also included in the drysuit. It can be found attached to the left arm. The diver must manually remove the air from the suit once it is full.
Helmet suit
Helmets are a standard safety feature for diving suits. Helmet suits protect the diver against harmful ultraviolet light and bright sunlight. A visor can be placed over the helmet's head when not in use. Some helmets include a spitcock that is used to wash out any condensate buildup. This can create a fogging effect and cause problems with the diver's visibility.
Another example is the diving helmet. It is very similar to what salvage hunters use. It can only be worn on Tutorial Island during Beneath Cursed Tides. While diving, the helmet must be removed at the end of the dive. There are however many methods to remove the helmet. This article will briefly describe the diving suit helmet.
Semi-drysuit
Semi-dry diving suits like the iFLEX are flexible, comfortable, and most fitting. It features the most recent wetsuit design innovations such as ultra-stretch dive Neoprene. This allows the diver freedom of movement without compromising comfort. The suit is quick and easy to put on and take off.
Semi-dry suits have better seals than wetsuits, limiting the volume of water that can enter and leave the suit. This ensures that the water is warm inside the suit, but doesn't readily exit. This ensures that the diver does not lose buoyancy from the compression of air bubbles when they dive deeper into water.
