Davit System (Lifeboat/Raft) · Lifesaving Appliances (LSA)
Regular maintenance is crucial for ensuring the safe and reliable operation of a crew evacuation davit. The Global Davit W08E.53 is designed with this in mind, featuring an IMO-approved design (MEDB0000875, according to DNV). This davit is specifically built for crew evacuation and safety purposes and is certified to carry a specified number of persons as per SOLAS regulations. To maintain optimal performance, it requires weekly engine test runs of at least five minutes. The release hook must be serviced annually by an approved service provider, adhering to SOLAS MSC.402(96) guidelines. Additionally, a thorough examination of the davit should be conducted every five years. Spare parts are available through Global Davit GmbH or authorized distribution partners, with a lead time of 2-6 weeks.
