健康和安全

VIKING Life-Saving Equipment 是一家全球海事安全解决方案提供商,正在推出一系列新的救生艇和吊艇架,以满足紧凑型、轻型救生艇疏散解决方案的要求

VIKING 推出了“VNJY”系列救生艇,以满足主要造船客户对船舶类型替代概念的需求,  尤其 是海上服务运营船 (SOV)  ,因为船上空间非常宝贵,而且船舶空间非常宝贵。必须优化救生艇和吊艇架的安装。VNJY 具有最小的甲板占地面积,同时优化了容量和可维护性。此外,VNJY 的船体比平常更短、更宽,并采用创新的前向转向位置,可提供额外的船上空间。

新型 VNJY 救生艇在制造过程中使用的材料显着减少,高度和重量也更低(最多减轻 400 公斤),并且与以前的型号相比,旨在减少碳足迹。较低的重量还减少了用于发射和回收救生艇的重力或液压动力吊艇架的负载和所需的能力。

VNJY 采用模块化设计制造,经 DNV 认证,满足 SOLAS 和 LSA 要求,可以轻松适应新尺寸,并减少维护工作。发动机的智能放置和负载释放钩的静压释放装置进一步增强了可维护性。对于安装在存在碳氢化合物且需要防火的船舶,新系列将配备压缩空气系统和外部海水雨淋系统。

VIKING 的 Thomas Thompson表示:“IKING Norsafe 救生艇经久耐用,这也是我们在为我们广受欢迎的 JYN 系列持续订购了 20 多年之后,非常关注救生艇设计真正的重大变革的原因之一。”船舶与吊艇架技术总监“一些客户将继续喜欢那些为他们提供良好服务的设计,但 VNJY 救生艇提供了其他人一直希望的节省空间、轻便的解决方案。操作员还将欣赏转向位置提高视野的方式,以及额外宽度带来的稳定性增益。”

Health & Safety

VIKING Life-Saving Equipment, a global provider of maritime safety solutions, is launching a new range of lifeboats and davits which meet the requirement for compact and lightweight lifeboat-based evacuation solutions

VIKING has launched its ‘VNJY’ range of lifeboats in response to the demand from major shipbuilding clients for alternative concepts for vessel types  especially for Offshore Service Operation vessels (SOV)  where onboard space is at a premium and space for the lifeboat and davit installation must be optimised. The VNJY features a minimal deck footprint, while optimising capacity and serviceability. In addition, the VNJY features a shorter and wider hull than usual and incorporates an innovative forward steering position that allows for additional space on board.

Using significantly less materials in manufacturing, the new VNJY lifeboats also deliver lower height and weight (up to 400 kg lighter) and are designed to achieve a reduced carbon footprint compared to previous models. The lower weight also reduces loads and the required capacities for the gravity- or hydraulic-powered davits used to launch and recover lifeboats.

Manufactured in a modular design, certified by DNV to meet SOLAS and LSA requirements, the VNJY can be easily adapted to new sizes and requires reduced maintenance efforts. Serviceability has been further enhanced by the smart placement of engines and the hydrostatic release for on-load release hooks. For boats installed where hydrocarbons are present and fire protection is necessary, the new range will come complete with a compressed air system and external seawater deluge.

“VIKING Norsafe lifeboats are built to last, which is one reason we have taken so much care over what is truly a step change for lifeboat design after over 20 years of continuous orders for our popular JYN range,” said Thomas Thompson, VIKING technical director, Boats & Davits. “Some customers will continue to prefer designs that have served them so well, but VNJY lifeboats offer the space-saving, lightweight solution others have been hoping for. Operators will also appreciate the way the steering position improves visibility, and the stability gains brought by extra width.”
