Davit System (Lifeboat/Raft) · Lifesaving Appliances (LSA)
Maintaining safety and functionality is paramount for davit systems, particularly those certified to SOLAS standards like the W26.L.06.01 by Global Davit GmbH. Regular inspections are critical to prevent common failures such as issues with the on-load release gear, which should be tested annually under 1.1 times the safe working load, and checked for corrosion and wear in the lock or shaft. The wire ropes must also be inspected for kinks, corrosion, and wear, ensuring they remain serviceable. Bremse components require monitoring to prevent blockages and ensure proper operation. Structural corrosion of the davit system, a frequent concern, can lead to significant failures if not addressed. Compliance with SOLAS regulations is essential, including scheduled maintenance and testing every five years. Global Davit GmbH or authorized partners provide spare parts, with delivery times ranging from 2 to 6 weeks.
