Marine certification for starting systems

Marine certification for systems meeting auxiliary, critical and ‘dead ship’ requirements are handled through a number of specific classification systems.

The governing societies include:

• • Lloyd’s Register of Shipping
  • ASME (The American Society of Mechanical Engineers)
  • BV (Bureau Veritas)
  • DNV
  • GL (Germanischer Lloyd)
  • NK (Nippon Kaiji)
  • RINA

Each classification shares a common minimum standard for a hand-pumped system capable of delivering three starts within a 30-minute period.

IPU’s starting systems can be certified to the standard required by the client.
