BS EN ISO 6218:2019 Inland navigation vessels. Manually- and power-operated coupling devices for rope connections of pushing units and coupled vessels. Safety requirements and main dimensions
What is ISO 6218 - Manually- and power-operated coupling devices about?
ISO 6218 specifies dimensions and safety requirements for manually operated and power operated coupling devices used for assembling inland navigation vessels as push tows or for coupling vessels alongside by means of rope connections. The coupling device secures the stable positioning of the coupled vessels. Safety requirements to protect operators from accidents during the creation, operation, and separation of the rope connections of push tows and vessels coupled alongside are specified in ISO 6218 . ISO 6218 also gives rules for designation and testing.
