Foreword
ISO (the International Organization for Standardization) is a worldwide federation of national standards bodies
(ISO member bodies). The work of preparing International Standards is normally carried out through ISO
technical committees. Each member body interested in a subject for which a technical committee has been
established has the right to be represented on that committee. International organizations, governmental and
non-governmental, in liaison with ISO, also take part in the work. ISO collaborates closely with the International
Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) on all matters of electrotechnical standardization.
International Standards are drafted in accordance with the rules given in the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 2.
The main task of technical committees is to prepare International Standards. Draft International Standards
adopted by the technical committees are circulated to the member bodies for voting. Publication as an
International Standard requires approval by at least 75 % of the member bodies casting a vote.
Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this document may be the subject of patent
rights. ISO shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights.
ISO 15027-2 was prepared by the European Committee for Standardization (CEN) Technical Committee
CEN/TC 162, Protective clothing including hand and arm protection and lifejackets, in collaboration with
Technical Committee ISO/TC 188, Small craft, Subcommittee SC 1, Personal safety equipment, in accordance
with the Agreement on technical cooperation between ISO and CEN (Vienna Agreement).
This second edition cancels and replaces the first edition (ISO 15027-2:2002), which has been technically
revised. The main technical changes are:
a) addition of terms and definitions from ISO 15027-1:2012;
b) revision of requirements for buddy lines;
c) revision of requirements regarding conspicuity;
d) addition of Clause 6 “Information supplied by the manufacturer”;
e) revision of consumer information label;
f) revision of requirements regarding thermal protection in water.
ISO 15027 consists of the following parts, under the general title Immersion suits:

Introduction
This part of ISO 15027 has been prepared to meet the needs of persons engaged in certain activities on or
near water. Abandonment suits manufactured and maintained according to this part of ISO 15027 will provide
protection from cold shock and delay the onset of hypothermia.
The complete immersion system (suit and clothes worn under the suit) should be able to keep the user alive long
enough for the rescue services to find and recover them. An individual’s estimated thermal protection time will
depend on water temperature and wave state as well as their physiology. Detailed in this part of ISO 15027 are
the minimum recommended insulation levels and the associated water temperatures in which they are to be used.
This part of ISO 15027 is intended to serve as a minimum performance requirement for manufacturers,
purchasers and users of such safety equipment and seeks to ensure that the equipment provides effective
performance in use. The abandonment suit should not jeopardize safety by causing undue discomfort which
could result in a degradation of performance.
The abandonment suit shall have no features which will be likely to have any detrimental effect on the operation
of other life-saving equipment that may be used. In particular, any part of the suit which might pose a snagging
hazard shall be suitably covered, protected or restrained.
The primary aims in wearing an abandonment suit are:
a) to reduce the risk of cold shock and delay the onset of hypothermia;
b) to enable the user to propel himself in the water and extricate himself from the water without it becoming
an encumbrance;
c) to make the user sufficiently conspicuous in the water so as to aid his recovery.
Many circumstances may alter the performance of the suit, such as wave action or the wearing of additional
equipment. Users, owners and employers should ensure that equipment is correctly maintained according to
the manufacturer’s instructions.
An abandonment suit may often be worn with a lifejacket as it will provide extra flotation and may help to bring
a user to a face-up position.

4.1.3 The risk of heat stress and discomfort shall be taken into account in the design and use of the suit
system. This should be accompanied in the information supplied by the manufacturer by specific advice or
warnings according to Clause 6.
NOTE In general, the higher the protection against cold shock and hypothermia, the higher is the possibility of heat
strain. The user of an abandonment suit needs to balance those two effects when choosing a device.
4.1.4 The size of the suit shall fit size(s) of the intended user(s). When multiple size ranges are provided,
the size ranges should overlap. If an adult universally sized suit is provided, it shall be sized to fit at least every
person between 1,50 m and 1,95 m. Test in accordance with ISO 15027-3:2012.
4.1.5 The rotating shock bin test according to ISO 15027-3:2012, 3.6 shall be performed on each suit before
performing the relevant tests according to ISO 15027-3:2012, Clause 3. There shall be no visible migration of
insulation material and no visible wear-and-tear damage after the rotating shock bin test.
4.1.6 Unless the suit system has been designed to be used without a PFD, the suit system shall not prevent
the donning of a personal flotation device (PFD) in accordance with ISO 12402-2 or ISO 12402-3, and the
manufacturer of the suit system shall specify the type of PFD (inflatable and/or inherent) to be used.
4.1.7 The performance requirements shall be met after cleaning in accordance with ISO 15027-3:2012,
3.7.1.1. The cleaning shall be performed according to the specification of the manufacturer.
4.1.8 The suit system shall be designed in such a way as to minimize the risk of snagging. Test in accordance
with ISO 15027-3:2012, 3.1.
4.1.9 Materials, fabrics and components shall conform with the requirements of 4.11.

Foreword
ISO (the International Organization for Standardization) is a worldwide federation of national standards bodies
(ISO member bodies). The work of prepa ring International Standards is normally carried out thro ugh ISO
technical committees. Each member body interested in a subject for which a technical committee has been
established has the right to be repr esented on that committee. International organizations, governmental and
non-governmental, in liaison with ISO, also take part in the work. ISO collaborates clo sely with the
International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) on all matters of electrotechnical standardization.
International Standards are drafted in accordance with the rules given in the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 2.
The main task of techni cal committees is to prep are International Standards. Draft International Standa rds
adopted by t he technical committees are circulated to the m ember bodies for voting. Publication as an
International Standard requires approval by at least 75 % of the member bodies casting a vote.
Attention is drawn to the p ossibility that some of the elements of this document may be the subject of patent
rights. ISO shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights.
ISO 15027-2 was prepared by Te chnical Committee ISO/TC 188, Small crafts, Subcommittee SC , an d by
Technical Committee CEN/TC 162, Protective clothing including hand and arm protection and lifejackets in
collaboration.
This second edition cancels and replaces the first edition (EN ISO 15027-2:2002) which has been technically

Introduction
This document has b een prepared to meet the ne eds of persons engaged in certain activities on or near
water. Abandonment suits manufactu red and mainta ined to this standard will provide prot ection from cold
shock and delay the onset of hypothermia.
The complete immersion system (suit and clothes worn under the suit) should be able to keep the wearer alive
long enough for the rescu e services to find and recover them. An individual's estimated th ermal protection
time will depend on water temperature and wave state as well a s their physiology. Detailed in this stand ard
are the minimum recommended insulation levels and the a ssociated water temperatures in which they are to
be used.
This standard is intended to serve as a minimum performance requirement for manufacturers, purchasers and
users of su ch safety equi pment and seeks to en sure that the e quipment provides effective performance in
use. The abandonment suit should not jeopardise safety by causing undue discomfort which could result in a
degradation of performance.
The abandonment suit shall have no f eatures which will be likely to have any detriment al effect on the
operation of other life saving equipm ent that may be used. In particular, any part of the suit w hich might pose
a snagging hazard shall be suitably covered, protected or restrained.
The primary aims in wearing an abandonment suit are:
a) to reduce the risk of cold shock and delay the onset of hypothermia;
b) to enable the wearer to propel himself in the wa ter and extricate himself from the water without it
becoming an encumbrance;
c) to make the wearer sufficiently conspicuous in the water so as to aid his recovery.
Many circumstances may alter the performance of the suit, such as wave acti on, or the wearing of additional
equipment. Users, owners and employers should ensure that equipment is correctly maintained to manufac-
turer's instructions.
The use of a lifejacket/suit combination during testing does not confer approval status for that combination. An
abandonment suit may be worn with a PFD as it will provide extra flotation and will help to bring a person to a
face up position.
