PRODUCT INFORMATION
In an emergency situation an early and controlled release of liferafts can save lives at sea.
To manually release a liferaft, is many times the last possibility to launch a liferaft in a
controlled manner, before the vessel is going under.
The Hammar Easy Release slip hook system is designed to be safe and easy to use in
order to increase the possibilities to manually release liferafts and save lives.
FEATURES
•
Strong construction in stainless steel, that will withstand 15 kN lashing load.
•
Easy to release by one hand even under its maximum lashing load.
•
Easy to install.
HOW IT WORKS
To manually release the raft, pull out the safety pin and the lashing will be released allowing the liferaft to be launched in a controlled
manner.
The Hammar Easy Release, HR-0500 is always used together with the Hammar H20 hydrostatic release. Should the vessel sink and the
liferaft is not released manually the Hammar H20, which is activated by increasing water pressure, will automatically release the liferaft.
