Types of maritime evacuation systems
Slide Type
Designed for low dry-docking vessels
The slide + life raft combination is stored in a space-saving container, ensuring safe and rapid evacuation of all passengers.
Escape Chute Type
Spiral chutes ensure a safe, fast, and intuitive descent, with each system capable of evacuating up to 600 passengers quickly and comfortably, offering single or double spiral chute options to suit your passenger capacity.
MES structure
Each Marine Evacuation System (MES) comprises an inflatable inclined evacuation slide, a spacious inflatable liferaft (available in both canopied and open reversible designs), and a lightweight storage rack constructed from durable marine-grade aluminum
How to use MES
When the lever is activated, hydraulic mechanisms smoothly position the evacuation system at sea level, simplifying boarding.
No need for bow lines or welded connections on the boat's sides. Enhanced safety with a compact deck footprint. Deployment is swift and effortless.
Routine maintenance for Marine Evacuation Systems
1. Regular Inspection: Conduct routine checks to ensure the system is in good condition, free from visible damage, and functioning correctly.
2. Inflation System Inspection: Check the inflation mechanisms, including gas cylinders and pressure indicators, to ensure they are operational and properly pressurized.
3. Slide Inspection: Inspect the evacuation slide for tears, holes, or any signs of wear. Ensure that the slide is properly folded and stowed.
4. Liferaft Inspection: Check the liferaft for leaks, damage, and proper inflation. Ensure that all necessary supplies and equipment are present and in good condition.
5. Storage Rack Inspection: Examine the storage rack for any structural issues, and ensure it is securely mounted and accessible for deployment.
6. Hydraulic System Check: Test the hydraulics to confirm smooth operation and to identify any leaks or malfunctions.
7. Training and Drills: Regularly conduct training sessions and evacuation drills to familiarize personnel with the system's operation and enhance their response in an emergency.
8. Record-Keeping: Maintain detailed records of inspections, maintenance, and any repairs or replacements performed on the Marine Evacuation System.
