Hazard Shield
From Wikitroid, the Metroid wiki
The Hazard Shield (or Hazard Suit) is a suit enhancement that protects Samus Aran from the environmental hazards of Fuel Gel and the Acid Rain of the Space Pirates' Homeworld.
In Metroid Prime 3, the Hazard Suit replaces the role of the Phazon Suit as a suit that reduces overall damage in addition to allowing Samus to move through harsh environments that she would normally not be able to travel through. It is of Space Pirate technology, designed so that they may operate safely in their Homeworld's constant acidic rainfall.
The Hazard Suit is found on the Space Pirate homeworld, and provides an orange visual 'force field' effect on Samus' armor and arm cannon when she enters hazardous environments that the suit protects her from. While it turns darker along with the rest of her suit during the rest of game, after Samus defeats Dark Samus and is freed of corruption, the hazard shield is shown to be completely purple, a similar shade to the Gravity Suit.
