GENERAL
This section contains instructions for minimum performance testing of the Coastal and Offshore Elite
Liferafts. The performance test provides a functional equipment check to establish the ability of the
systems and components to perform required design function or before the reinstallation of rafts
removed from service.
Maintenance inspections for the Elite rafts occur every three (3) years or sooner if necessary depending
on the prevailing conditions.
Additional inspections are required for the following:
A.
An Elite raft has been removed from its carrying case, functionally tested, or
inflated/deployed for demonstration purposes. Perform the inspection before the raft is
returned to service regardless of the date of the last maintenance inspection.
B.
An Elite raft has been subjected to severe handling of adverse conditions to ensure no
damage has occurred to the raft.
See Chapter 10 Tools, Equipment, and Materials for detailed descriptions of any tools used in the
following testing procedures. These tools are necessary for testing the liferaft. When not in use, the
test equipment and special tools are to be kept in good condition and safe from damage.
It will be necessary to remove the packed liferaft from the vessel in order to perform testing
procedures. Refer to Chapter 3 – Disassembly of this manual for information regarding unpacking of
the liferaft. Ensure the working area is clean and dry, free from sharp projections, and large enough to
fit the liferaft. The work surface should be smooth, preferably constructed of linoleum or PVC
covering.
Warning: Use extreme caution when handling any part of the inflation system. The
inflation system is charged and armed. Inadvertent activation of the inflation
system may cause personal injury or damage raft components.
Caution: Extreme care must be exercised when handling a liferaft to protect it from
punctures or tears. Do not step or walk on any part of the liferaft. Do not drop
or throw the liferaft whether packed or unpacked.
Caution: Unless necessary, do not perform a functional test on an inflation system
component while the inflation system is still attached to the liferaft. Repeated
deployment, especially when the raft is not in the water, may cause premature
deterioration of the raft fabric in the vicinity of the CO
2
port. Inflate the raft
using compressed air through the topping-off inflation valves.
Note:
When possible, use a closed-end box wrench instead of an open end wrench to
assure optimum tool grip and to minimize damage to valve and body surfaces.
