STD Compact Launch & Recovery System (LARS)
Ensure the safety and efficiency of your commercial diving operations with the STD Launch & Recovery System (LARS) from Arya Engineering Works. Designed for ease of mobilization and compact footprints, this LARS is the ideal solution for vessel-based diving or platforms with limited deck space. The system integrates a hydraulic A-Frame, a certified man-riding winch, and a corrosion-resistant Stainless Steel (SS) diver basket into a single, robust unit. Engineered to meet strict offshore safety standards, it provides controlled deployment and recovery of divers, enhancing operational safety in harsh marine environments.
- System Type: Compact Hydraulic A-Frame LARS
- Deployment Depth: 50m – 100m (Depending on wire rope capacity)
- Safe Working Load (SWL): Man-Riding Rated (e.g., 500 kg - 1000 kg)
- Frame Construction: Marine Grade Steel (Painted Safety Yellow)
- Basket Material: Stainless Steel (SS 304/316) Box Frame
- Power Source: External HPU or Integrated Hydraulic Pack
- Mounting: Deck Welded or Bolt-Down Skid
- Brand: Arya Engineering Works
- Compact Skid Design: The entire system utilizes a small footprint, making it easy to transport and install on vessels of opportunity (VOOs), barges, or quaysides.
- Hydraulic Luffing A-Frame: Features powerful hydraulic cylinders to smoothly tilt (luff) the A-frame over the side of the vessel for deployment and retract it for safe recovery.
- Stainless Steel Diver Basket: The diving cage is fabricated from high-grade Stainless Steel for maximum corrosion resistance. It includes secure handrails, internal standing space, and a secure gate mechanism to protect the diver during transit.
- Man-Riding Winch: Equipped with a dedicated, high-safety-factor hydraulic winch designed specifically for personnel lifting.
- Integrated Controls: Features a deck-mounted hydraulic control station, allowing the operator precise control over the A-frame movement and winch speed.
- Safety Backup: Includes secondary brake systems and emergency stop functions (standard in LARS designs).
- Inshore & Offshore Diving: Inspection, Repair, and Maintenance (IRM) of subsea structures.
- Vessel-Based Operations: Ideal for smaller support vessels where deck space is premium.
- Emergency Recovery: Rapid extraction of injured divers from the water.
- Civil Engineering: Underwater construction support in ports and dams.
