DAVIT INTERNATIONAL, D-NP.MP - DAVIT OF NORMAL PIVOT MECHANICAL POWER

D-NP.MP - davit of normal pivot, semi-gravity driven with mechanical stored power (spring load).

The system is suitable for lowering a boat to embarkation position at ship side by gravity with additional support from spring loaded cylinder. After embarkation, the system will lower the fully boarded boat from the launching position to the water level by means of gravity with the speed required by the rules.

In order to allow a launching and recovery procedure as appropriate, the system is equipped with an electric winch. Hoisting of the fully equipped boat, including the 3-men crew, can be realised by means of the incorporated electric motor.

In case of electric failure, hoisting can be realised manually. For this purpose the winch has been equipped with a crank handle square shaft. Upon placing of the hand crank the motor drive is automatically blocked.
