Life raft service typically involves performing regular inspections, testing the life rafts to ensure they inflate properly, and replacing any damaged or expired components.
The frequency of life raft service will depend on the specific requirements and regulations for the region in which the life rafts are used, as well as the age and condition of the life rafts. All commercial life rafts should be serviced yearly. It is important to follow the manufacturer's recommendations and any applicable regulations for life raft service.
Hydro testing is a critical component of life raft maintenance and is typically performed as part of the regular service process for life rafts. Every 5 years from the last hydro date, the cylinders have to be hydro tested and filled. This is the reason the 5th year of service cost more.
It is important to have life rafts well-maintained and in good condition because they may be called upon to save lives in the event of an emergency at sea.
Life raft service should be performed by trained technicians who are familiar with the specific requirements and regulations for life rafts in different regions.
The length of time it takes to service a life raft will depend on a variety of factors, including the size and complexity of the life raft, the condition of the life raft, and the specific service tasks that are being performed. In general, a full life raft service can take anywhere from a few hours to a full day or more to complete, depending on the specific circumstances. It is important to allow enough time for the service to be completed properly and to follow the manufacturer's recommendations and any applicable regulations for life raft service. It is also worth noting that some life raft service tasks, such as hydro testing the cylinders, may require additional time and specialized equipment. In these cases, the service process may take longer to complete.
