The Intermediate Engineer RIG is an exclusive Resource Integration Gear available for Class 4 CEC engineers and is a standard equipment when working in mildly hazardous environments. Compared to the Standard Engineer RIG, the suit has a bulkier appearance due to the amount of armor plating attached which reinforces the helmet, abdomen and leggings as well as a forearm guard for the right arm.

Trivia[]

- The suit appears frequently in early screenshots of the game as well as in advertisements and marketing productions of the game. Similar to the Advanced Suit from Dead Space 2 and the Arctic Survival Suit from Dead Space 3, the Level 3 Suit appears to act as a symbol of the first Dead Space.
- In Dead Space: Aftermath, the crew of the USG O'Bannon uses a RIG similar to the Level 3 Suit, but with a grey finish and a folding face cover.
- The entire RIG could be purchased in the Avatar Marketplace in Xbox LIVE for 480 Microsoft Points (Helmet for 160 Microsoft Points and Abdomen for 320 Microsoft Points). In the PlayStation Home mall, the complete suit could be purchased for $3.98.
- In Dead Space 2 and Dead Space 3, there is a RIG similar to the Level 3 Suit called the CEC Engineering Suit. It is the first suit that Isaac Clarke can purchase in Dead Space 2, and is an unlockable bonus suit in Dead Space 3.
- This RIG gives 30% damage reduction in the Dismemberment Demo of Dead Space; however, it only confers 10% protection in the final game.
