Description Hammar H20 HR-0100 Hydrostatic Release Unit – Yellow Label Please Note: Due to MCA regulations, all HRUs are now date marked on dispatch of purchase and therefore, cannot be refunded after purchase   SOLAS Approved    Replace every 2 years    Watch the HAMMAR HRU in action   The Hammar HR-0100 Hydrostatic release unit is designed for liferafts from 6 up to 150 persons. The release unit consists of a double-looped white rope line, a release mechanism and a Red Weak Link™ (breaking strength 2,2 ± 0,4kN). The strong white rope of Hammar HR-0100  is secured to the deck or liferaft cradle and attached to the liferaft lashing with a slip hook. If the ship sinks, the water pressure will, within 4 metres, activate the sharp knife which cuts the white strong rope and the liferaft will float free. As the ship sinks, the liferaft painter line will be stretched and the liferaft starts to inflate. The Red Weak Link™ breaks and survivors can board the floating liferaft.   Approvals The Hammar H20 hydrostatic release units are approved worldwide and fulfil the requirements of the SOLAS 74/96 Convention, Reg. III/4 LSA Code, MO Res. MSC. 48/(66), IMO Res. MSC. 81(70), approved by EU Directive 96/98 EC on Marine Equipment has a NATO stock number.
