Harken introduces the man overboard recovery system, developed in collaboration with the Genoa Port Pilots. Specifically designed for pilots and pilot boats, this innovative system is ideal for all operators working in marine environments where there is a risk of falling into the water.

The system consists of two main components: the PFL (Personal Floating Link) and the RH (Recovery Hardware). The PFL is a self-inflating ring that allows an operator to quickly and safely latch onto a person who has accidentally fallen overboard. Once attached with the PFL, the RH enables the person to be easily recovered, making the entire operation manageable by a single individual.

This system not only enhances the safety of marine workers but also improves the efficiency of rescue operations. With Harken, your team will always be protected and ready to handle any emergency at sea. The safety of your operators is our priority.

Harken presenta il sistema di recupero uomo in mare, sviluppato in collaborazione con il corpo dei piloti del porto di Genova. Progettato specificamente per i piloti e le pilotine, questo sistema innovativo è ideale per tutti gli operatori che lavorano in ambienti marini dove esiste il rischio di cadere in acqua.

Il sistema è composto da due componenti principali: il PFL (Personal Floating Link) e l'RH (Recovery Hardware). Il PFL è un anello autogonfiabile che consente a un operatore di agganciare rapidamente e in sicurezza una persona caduta accidentalmente in mare. Una volta agganciata con il PFL, l'RH permette di recuperare la persona con facilità, rendendo possibile l'intera operazione da parte di una sola persona.

Questo sistema non solo aumenta la sicurezza dei lavoratori marini, ma migliora anche l'efficienza delle operazioni di salvataggio. Con Harken, il tuo team sarà sempre protetto e pronto a gestire qualsiasi emergenza in mare. La sicurezza dei tuoi operatori è la nostra priorità.
