1. Description
1.1 The Revere Supply range of Throw Overboard liferafts are rated for 4, 6, 8,
10 or 12 persons (FIGURE 101). ISO9650 Type 1 and Type 2 liferaft hulls
are the same, except the Type 2 liferaft does not have an insulated f oor.
1.2 The design consists of two buoyancy chambers forming a high freeboard,
an insulated floor and an automatically erected canopy for all-weather
protection that incorporates doors, vents and rainwater catchment systems.
The canopy is supported by an arch tube which is inflated via the upper
buoyancy chamber.
1.3 Polychloroprene adhesive, (EV/C2 glue), must be used for service repairs.
1.4 The liferaft is made from the following parts, (FIGURE 101 or FIGURE 102):
1.4.1 Two buoyancy tubes: one installed on top of the other with a floor
suspended below them. This gives a high freeboard.
1.4.2 A canopy, which is erected automatically by an inflated arch tube.
1.4.3 Water pockets, which are installed on the base, make the liferaft
stable and control the drift subsequent to the launch.
1.4.4 The liferaft is made from PVC fabric. The buoyancy chambers of the
liferaft are orange and the canopy is a high visibility color.
1.5 The liferaft has the internal and external equipment as follows, (FIGURE
101):
1.5.1 Lifelines which are attached around the interior and exterior of the
buoyancy tubes.
1.5.2 A rescue line and quoit which are located inside the liferaft.
