Provides an attachment point for the tensioned steel wire ropes used during abeam replenishment at sea (RAS) operations. Once attached via the individual couplings, the attachment point may be raised and lowered using the moveable highpoint unit The moveable highpoint provides an attachment point for the tensioned steel wire ropes used during abeam replenishment at sea(RAS)operations. Once attached via the individual couplings, the attachment point may be raised and lowered using the moveable highpoint unit to allow safe and convenient loading and unloading of solid stores on the deck. MHPS suitable for the transfer of 2te or 6te RAS loads are available. Each Moveable Highpoint is controlled by a bulkhead mounted control panel and is operated from a portable pendant controller which is supplied complete with a six metre long wander lead. The wander lead is plugged into an IP66 bulkhead mounted socket located adjacent to the Moveable Highpoint. An associated electrical starter panel is also supplied which is mounted in an enclosed compartment position behind each Moveable Highpoint unit or elsewhere within the vessel. If required, the moveable highpoint structure can be supplied as part of an integrated form for installation into the ships hull profile. This provides minimum radar cross section properties and avoids projections onto the ships weatherdeck. External weather tight doors can also be supplied for a fully flush profile when stowed.
