Davit System (Lifeboat/Raft) · Lifesaving Appliances (LSA)
On modern ships, davit systems like the Rhs.L.14/3,5 02E04 are crucial for crew evacuation and safety operations, adhering to stringent SOLAS regulations. These systems are approved by DNV and meet IMO standards, ensuring reliable deployment of lifeboats and rescue equipment. Key components such as the on-load release gear (OLRG) require annual functional testing and a five-year dynamic test to maintain safety. Wire ropes must be inspected for kinks, corrosion, and broken strands, with replacement recommended if more than 10% of the strands are damaged over an 8D length. Additionally, the brake system should be checked regularly for wear and correct operation, including the remote release function. The structural integrity of the davit must also be maintained, with zinc-coated structures and stainless steel fasteners inspected for signs of corrosion or discoloration. Regular maintenance compliance is critical, with planned maintenance logged since installation, including yearly and five-year inspections. Spare parts are available through Global Davit GmbH or authorized distribution partners, with a lead time of 2 to 6 weeks. Weekly engine test runs are required, and the release hook servicing must be conducted annually by an approved service provider. The GRP hull should be inspected during docking.
