Davit System (Lifeboat/Raft) · Lifesaving Appliances (LSA)
Regular maintenance and adherence to inspection guidelines are crucial for ensuring the reliability and safety of maritime evacuation equipment. Global Davit GmbH's Rhp.23,5/2,9 model is certified under SOLAS for crew evacuation and safety, boasting an IMO-approved design recognized by DNV. This davit system is equipped with essential features such as the On-Load-Release Gear (OLRG), which requires annual functional testing at 1.1 times the Safe Working Load (SWL), followed by a thorough inspection for wear and corrosion. Additionally, the wire ropes should be checked for kinks, corrosion, and broken strands, with any affected sections replaced according to manufacturer intervals. The brake system, critical for controlling descent speed, must be inspected for wear and tested for proper release function. Regular visual inspections of the davit structure are necessary to detect corrosion, particularly in zinc-coated areas and stainless steel fastenings. Maintenance compliance is paramount, with a requirement for planned inspections logged in the vessel's records and carried out by authorized personnel. Spare parts are available from Global Davit GmbH or authorized distributors, with a lead time of 2-6 weeks. Weekly engine tests and annual servicing of the release hook, along with five-year thorough examinations, are essential for maintaining the system's operational readiness.
