Throw Overboard Inflatable Life Raft –  Self Inflating Life Raft

Self-righting throw Overboard inflatable life raft is equipped with a self-righting mechanism that ensures it flips over to the correct position when it hits the water, even if it initially lands upside down or sideways.

A self-righting inflatable life raft is a type of self inflating life raft that offers enhanced safety and functionality during emergencies. This self inflating life raft is designed to automatically inflate when it comes into contact with water, eliminating the need for manual inflation. Upon being thrown overboard, the life raft’s inflation mechanism is activated, rapidly filling the raft with air and allowing it to reach its full size and buoyancy.

Self Inflating Life Raft Capacity

The self inflating life raft, designed to accommodate 10-35 occupants, offers essential features for survival. Upon contact with water, this self-inflating life raft swiftly inflates, providing immediate flotation. Equipped with external and internal lights powered by a dry cell battery, it ensures visibility in low-light conditions. SLOAS-approved self-reflecting tape enhances its visibility. The release line enables quick deployment, while the towing point aids in efficient rescue operations. External and internal handholds ensure stability, and two paddles allow for manual propulsion.

With these provisions, the self-inflating life raft enhances survival chances and aids in communication during emergency situations.

The Using Environment Of The Inflatable Life Raft

The Inflatable Life Raft is utilized exclusively as an emergency raft due to its inherent capabilities of self-righting and self-inflation.

• Vessel Capsizing: If a vessel capsizes, the self-righting capability of the emergency raft ensures that it flips over to the correct position, allowing occupants to board and await rescue.
• Sinking Ship: In the event of a ship sinking, the emergency raft can be thrown overboard and inflated to provide a safe and buoyant platform for survivors to evacuate the sinking vessel.
• Fire on Board: If a fire breaks out on a ship, it may become necessary to abandon the vessel. The self inflating life raft offers a means of escape and survival for the crew and passengers.
• Collisions or Structural Damage: If a ship collides with another vessel or experiences significant structural damage, rendering it unsafe to remain on board, the emergency raft can be deployed to ensure the safety of those on board.
• Abandon Ship Orders: In situations where the captain or authorities issue an “abandon ship” order due to a severe emergency or threat, the self-righting throw-overboard life raft provides a reliable means of evacuation and survival.
