Got a Question About Our Marine Safety Solutions?
Essential marine safety equipment items include life jackets, life rafts, EPIRBs (Emergency Position Indicating Radio Beacons), fire extinguishers, distress signals (such as flares and smoke signals), first aid kits, navigation lights, and VHF radios. These items are critical for responding to various emergencies and ensuring the safety of individuals onboard.
? Marine safety equipment should be inspected and maintained regularly to ensure proper functionality and compliance with regulations. It is recommended to conduct routine inspections, perform maintenance checks as per manufacturer guidelines, and replace any expired or damaged equipment promptly. Additionally, equipment should be tested and verified to be in working condition before each voyage.
Marine safety equipment should be stored in designated locations onboard vessels that are easily accessible and clearly marked. Equipment should be protected from environmental conditions, moisture, and damage, and stored in a manner that allows for quick deployment in case of an emergency. Regular checks should be conducted to ensure that equipment is securely stored and maintained in good condition.
When a PLB is activated, it emits a distress signal on a designated frequency that is picked up by satellites in the COSPAS-SARSAT system. The distress signal includes the PLB's unique identification code, allowing search and rescue authorities to pinpoint the location of the distress signal and initiate a rescue operation.
When selecting a PLB, key features to consider include GPS functionality for accurate positioning, buoyancy to ensure the device floats in water, long battery life, compact size for easy carrying, and waterproof construction. It is also important to ensure that the PLB is registered with the appropriate authorities and complies with relevant safety standards.
While PLBs are primarily designed for use in maritime or remote environments, they can also be used for land-based emergencies, such as hiking, mountaineering, or outdoor activities. PLBs provide an added layer of safety and security in situations where immediate assistance may be required.
In Ireland and the UK, marine emergency pyrotechnics are a legal requirement for certain vessels operating in coastal and offshore waters. Boats and vessels are typically required to carry a specified quantity and type of pyrotechnics as part of their safety equipment to signal distress and attract attention in emergencies.
