Throw-Over Life Raft · Life Rafts
Designed to ensure rapid and safe deployment in emergency situations, the 25 man throw-over SOLAS A and B pack inflatable liferaft, packed in cylindrical container / Trademarks: SURVITEC, ENDURA, CREWSAVER, ELLIOT, DSB, SURVITECZODIAC, RFD, SSP, BRUDE, RFD TOYO is a critical piece of crew evacuation equipment. This liferaft is certified to carry 25 persons and meets the stringent safety standards set by SOLAS, ensuring reliable performance in maritime emergencies. The hydrostatic release unit (HRU) is a crucial component, but it must be replaced at the manufacturer's recommended interval, typically every two years, to prevent critical safety failures. Common issues include pressure loss in the CO2 bottle due to corrosion or aging, fabric degradation from UV exposure, and corrosion or blockage of the painter line. Additionally, survival equipment such as flares, water, and rations must be regularly checked and replaced. Annual servicing at an approved SURVITEC GROUP LIMITED service station is mandatory, and it is essential to keep a spare HRU on board.
