Application for DAWSON Lifeboat Fall Preventer Device

DAWSON Lifeboat Fall Preventer Device is used to minimize the risk of injury or death by providing a secondary alternate load path in the event of failure of the release hooks. FPD is mandatory equipment for each lifeboat.

It is important that FPDs are made of resilient material that can absorb shock. This ensures any failure of the hooks would not induce a large shock loading, which in a wire or chain could cause the latter to sequentially fail as the materials have limited resilience. Furthermore, as can often be found in incident reports, corrosion in wires can be present and could cause weakening of wire strops.
