HOW HAMMAR LIFERAFT HRU OPERATES

Hammar Hydrostatic Release Units (HRUs) are mechanisms designed to automatically deploy life rafts in the event of a vessel sinking. Here's how a Hammar Liferaft HRU typically operates:

Hydrostatic Pressure Activation:
The Hammar HRU is activated by hydrostatic pressure, which means it responds to the increasing water pressure at a certain depth. This is a critical safety feature as it ensures that the life raft is only deployed when submerged in water, not when the vessel is on the surface.

Water Depth and Pressure Sensor:
The HRU contains a water depth and pressure sensor. As the vessel sinks and the HRU reaches a specific depth underwater, the sensor triggers the release mechanism.

Release Pin Mechanism:
The release mechanism involves a pin that holds the HRU in place. When the water pressure increases due to submersion, the pin is released, activating the HRU.

Severing the Painter Line:
Once the release mechanism is activated, the HRU severs the painter line that holds the life raft to the vessel. The painter line is a line that connects the life raft to the ship or structure, keeping it close in case of an emergency.

Life Raft Inflation:
After the HRU severs the painter line, it allows the life raft to inflate. Inflatable life rafts typically have a gas canister that releases pressurized gas, filling the raft's buoyancy chambers and causing it to rapidly inflate.

Floating to the Surface:
Once inflated, the life raft rises to the surface of the water, providing a floating and accessible platform for the occupants to board and await rescue.

It's crucial to note that HRUs are a vital component of marine safety equipment, ensuring that life rafts are deployed automatically and swiftly in emergency situations. Regular inspection, maintenance, and adherence to manufacturer guidelines are essential to guarantee the proper functioning of Hammar Liferaft HRUs and the overall safety of marine operations.

FAIL - First Attempt In Learning

To succeed you must go through failure

Wether you fail all, some, half, etc failure is failure.

But you must choose to either rise up above failure or you stay their.

Don't envy!

• Someone graduated at the age of 22, but waited 5 years before securing a good job.

• Someone became a CEO at 25, and died at 50.

• While another became a CEO at 50, and lived to 90 years.

• Someone is still single, while someone from his school group has become grandfather.

• Obama retired at 55 & Trump started at 70.

• Everyone in this world works based on their time zone.

• People around you might seem ahead of you & some might seem to be behind you.

• But everyone is running their own race, in their own time.

• Do not envy them.

• They are in their time zone, and you are in yours.

So, relax.

You're not late.
You're not early.
You are very much on time.

YOUR TIME TO SHINE IS COMING SOON

YOU ARE BLESS
