Davit System (Lifeboat/Raft) · Lifesaving Appliances (LSA)
Crew evacuation and safety are paramount on any vessel, and the Rhs.11/3,5 davit from Global Davit GmbH is designed to ensure reliable and safe operations under SOLAS certification. This medium-capacity davit, model number 8636309 HH, is IMO-approved and meets DNV standards, making it a trusted choice for launching lifeboats and rescue equipment. Regular maintenance is crucial to the performance of the Rhs.11/3,5. Annual functional tests for the On-Load Release Gear (OLRG) are essential, involving checks at 1.1 times the Safe Working Load (SWL) and inspections for dried paint, corrosion, or wear in critical components. A five-year dynamic test is also mandated by SOLAS III / MSC.402(96). The wire ropes should be inspected for kinks, corrosion, and broken strands, with replacements made according to the manufacturer’s guidelines. The braking system, including both centrifugal and holding brakes, must be checked for wear and proper operation, ensuring the lowering speed does not exceed 36 meters per minute. Additionally, the davit structure should be regularly inspected for signs of corrosion, particularly in areas prone to zinc or stainless steel degradation. Compliance with maintenance logs is vital, documenting annual and five-year inspections as required by SOLAS regulations. Spare parts for the Rhs.11/3,5 are available through Global Davit GmbH or authorized distribution partners, with a lead time of 2-6 weeks. Weekly engine test runs and annual servicing of the release hooks by an approved service provider further ensure the Rhs.11/3,5’s reliability and safety.
