Description
The davit system comprises of two davit arms, a davit structure and an electrically powered winch operating two wire falls. The winch is deck mounted.

The davit is intended for lifeboats placed onboard vessels, where swing out davit arms offer the best solution. The lifeboat is normally boarded in the stowed position.

Swing out and lowering is made in one continues movement, so the lifeboat is launched in the minimum time. When the operator releases the winch brake (this can be done either on deck or from within the lifeboat) the davit arms will swing out and the boat will be lowered to the water line in one continuous movement. The system allows to achieve optimum performance in terms of safety and reliability, and minimal maintenance levels. The davit generates minimize noise and provides straightforward service access.

The winch is fitted with a one-way clutch. In the event of power loss, the brakes are automatically activated and davit motion is stoped.  The brake controls the speed of descent for the lifeboat.

Conforms to the latest IMO/SOLAS requirements, LSA Code and European Council Directive 2014/90/EU on Marine Equipment (MED).

The system will allow:
  • Launch of lifeboat in maximum load condition
  • Gravity lowering of the loaded lifeboat independent of external power supply
  • Retrieval of lifeboat with a crew of three persons using electric power
  • Retrieval of the lifeboat by manual hand-cranking
