Equipment class notation for vessels with one or more certified cranes onboard.

Purpose

To ensure that the cranes covered by the notation comply with the ILO Convention No. 152, and are accepted in all ports and by all flag states for self loading and unloading.

To receive the notation, at least one of the cranes on board must be product certified by DNV.

Benefits

DNV's CG2, crane product certificate, is recognised throughout the world as documentation of the highest crane quality.

DNV may also, upon request, check and document that other regulations and requirements specified by the customer are complied with.

Features

DNV's "Rules for Certification of Lifting Appliances" are considered to be the most complete and thorough crane certification standard published. the following steps have to be carried out:

• Design approval of crane

• Manufacturing survey

• Survey of installation of the crane on the support/fundament /pedestal

• Load and functional testing

In order to ensure that the requiered quality is maintained during your crane's service life - through both regular periodical surveys and occasional surveys necessary after repairs and modifications.
