Safety and Emergency Systems

EPIRB (Emergency Position Indicating Radio Beacon):
An EPIRB is a critical safety device that helps maritime vessels alert search and rescue authorities in the event of an emergency. When activated, it transmits a distress signal via satellite to relay the vessel’s location, ensuring rapid response in situations like capsizing or sinking.

SART (Search and Rescue Transponder):
A SART is a lifesaving electronic device used in maritime emergencies. It is typically deployed to aid rescue teams in locating vessels or survival craft during search and rescue operations. When activated, it transmits a radar signal to nearby ships, enabling quick identification and recovery.

Navigation Systems

Radar:
A radar system is a fundamental piece of marine navigation equipment that detects other vessels, landmasses, and obstacles by emitting radio waves. It provides real-time situational awareness, especially in low visibility conditions, ensuring safe passage for ships in all weather conditions.

GPS (Global Positioning System):
Marine GPS is an essential navigation tool used to determine a vessel’s precise location, speed, and direction anywhere in the world. It uses satellite technology to provide accurate and reliable data, helping captains plot courses and track their journey with precision.

Gyros (Gyro Compass):
A gyro compass is a non-magnetic compass that aligns with the Earth’s rotation to find true north. Unlike a traditional magnetic compass, it is unaffected by magnetic fields, making it a reliable navigation tool for ships in all waters.

Wind Sensors:
Wind sensors are used to measure wind speed and direction, critical for the navigation and operational safety of maritime vessels. These sensors help in understanding wind conditions, which can influence a ship’s manoeuvrability, especially in ports or during docking operations.

Communication Systems

VHF Radio (Very High Frequency Radio):
VHF radios are the most commonly used communication devices for short-range maritime communication. They are vital for ship-to-ship and ship-to-shore communication, facilitating everything from routine operations to emergency distress calls within a range of approximately 30 to 50 nautical miles.

SSB Radio (Single Sideband Radio):
SSB radios are long-range communication devices used in maritime settings to transmit over greater distances than VHF radios. They are particularly useful for offshore vessels, providing reliable communication across oceans and even to remote locations.

INMARSAT (Satellite Communication System):
INMARSAT is a global satellite communication system used for both voice and data communication at sea. It ensures constant connectivity, providing critical services like emergency calls, GPS tracking, and weather updates for ships operating in remote ocean regions beyond the range of traditional radio systems.
