Standards, Certifications & Class Approval

Review the available standards and approval information relevant to the product. Actual certification, material traceability, inspection and classification requirements depend on the product type, intended application and purchasing specification.

Applicable Standards & Certification Designed and tested to the approved project specification and applicable requirements such as OCIMF MEG4 guidance, BS 6349-4, IEC 60092, and ISO 12944. ATEX or IECEx compliance may apply to electrical components installed in hazardous areas.
Class Approval Project-specific approval or certification may be provided by DNV, ABS, Lloyd's Register, Bureau Veritas, or ClassNK when required. Approval is not universal and must be confirmed for the selected hook, controls, load rating, and installation.

Installation, Maintenance & Safety Information

Installation Notes Mount on a structurally verified deck, jetty, or dolphin foundation using the approved anchor layout. Align the hook with the mooring lead, provide unobstructed release travel, and commission remote controls, load cells, alarms, and emergency functions.
Maintenance Tips Inspect the hook, pivot, latch, springs, release mechanism, anchors, and coating regularly. Lubricate specified points, verify load-cell calibration, test local and remote release functions, and replace worn or corroded parts with approved components.
Safety Notes Keep personnel outside mooring-line snap-back zones and clear of the hook during release. Never exceed the rated load or modify the latch. Isolate stored hydraulic, pneumatic, and electrical energy before maintenance and follow the vessel or terminal mooring procedure.
