Davit System (Lifeboat/Raft) · Lifesaving Appliances (LSA)
The W10R.32 davit system from Global Davit GmbH is designed to meet the stringent requirements of crew evacuation and safety, adhering to SOLAS certification and IMO approval. The davit features a robust design intended for reliable operation in maritime environments. It includes a comprehensive suite of safety features such as an on-load release gear (OLRG) that requires annual functional testing and a five-year dynamic test to ensure compliance with SOLAS III and MSC.402(96) standards. Additionally, the system incorporates wire ropes and brakes that must be regularly inspected for wear and tear, ensuring safe and efficient operation. The davit's structural integrity is also critical, with zinc-coated components and stainless steel fasteners to resist corrosion, which was highlighted in the case of the RRS Sir David Attenborough in 2021. Regular maintenance, including weekly engine test runs and annual servicing of the release hook by an approved service provider, is essential to maintain compliance with SOLAS and other maritime regulations. Spare parts are available through Global Davit GmbH or authorized distribution partners, with a lead time of 2 to 6 weeks.
