Davit System (Lifeboat/Raft) · Lifesaving Appliances (LSA)
Crew evacuation and safety are paramount on any vessel, making davits a critical component of maritime rescue operations. The D-NP.180 18.17 from d-i davit international-hische GmbH is designed to meet these stringent requirements with its versatile Antriebsoptionen, including electric, hydraulic, and manual operation, as well as the option for stored power via accumulators or spring force. This model is certified by multiple classification societies such as ABS, GL, DNV, BV, NK, KR, LR, and others, ensuring it meets international safety standards. The davit’s SOLAS-Hoistgeschwindigkeit of up to 48 m/min for Fast-Rescue-Davits aligns with regulatory compliance, while its configurable hub capacity accommodates various ship types and rescue boat weights. Constructed in both normal pivot and slewing types, the D-NP.180 18.17 can be single or double-armed, featuring an optional docking head to prevent pendulum movements when lowering boats into the water. Regular maintenance is crucial for reliable operation; this includes annual checks on the on-load release gear, wire ropes, brakes, sheaves, and overall structural integrity. Every five years, a thorough examination, including a 110% proof-load test, is required to ensure continued safety and functionality. Spare parts are available through d-i davit international-hische GmbH or authorized distribution partners, with lead times of 2-6 weeks. For optimal performance, weekly engine tests and annual release hook servicing by an approved provider are recommended.
