Since 1st July 2018, Chapter II-2, Regulation 10.10.4 of Safety of Life at Sea (SOLaS) regulations have required ships to carry a minimum of two intrinsically safe, ATEX-compliant handheld radios for each fire party of firefighters. If you're looking for new or upgraded radio systems that meet these stringent standards, RadioTrader has a high quality range of equipment from which to choose.
Our experts can also programme the frequencies of your ship's on-board radios, including fire-fighter radios, reserving a dedicated channel for Fire Party use only during fire-fighting operations, as recommended by SOLAS regulations.
