Davit System (Lifeboat/Raft) · Lifesaving Appliances (LSA)
Crew evacuation and safety equipment is essential for ensuring the well-being of personnel on board vessels. d-i davit international-hische GmbH offers the D-RT.170 18.17.25, a versatile davit system designed to meet stringent safety standards. This model is IMO-approved and certified by various classification societies, including ABS, GL, DNV, BV, NK, KR, LR, and others. The D-RT.170 18.17.25 supports a wide range of rescue vessels, such as lifeboats, fast rescue boats, MOB boats, and rescue rafts. It features multiple drive options, including electric, hydraulic, and manual operation, with or without stored power (battery or spring-loaded). The davit's hoisting speed is up to 48 meters per minute for fast rescue operations, ensuring compliance with SOLAS regulations. Its construction can be tailored to the specific requirements of different ship types and lifeboat weights, offering both single and double-arm configurations. Optional docking heads are available to prevent pendulum movements until the water level is reached. Regular maintenance is crucial for reliable operation; common inspections include annual checks on the on-load release gear, wire ropes, brakes, sheaves, and overall structural integrity. A thorough examination every five years is also required, including a 110% proof load test of the davit system. Spare parts are available through d-i davit international-hische GmbH or authorized distribution partners, with lead times ranging from two to six weeks. Weekly engine tests and annual release hook servicing by an approved provider ensure ongoing operational readiness. GRP hull inspections during docking and a comprehensive five-year examination further guarantee the safety and reliability of the D-RT.170 18.17.25 system.
