BS ISO 21195:2020,Ships and marine technology — Systems for the detection of persons while going overboard from ships (man overboard detection).BS ISO 21195:2020 pdf free download.
BS ISO 21195:2020 specifies technical requirements for systems designed to detect a person who has gone overboard from a ship. This document does not cover man overboard (MOB) detection systems that require the passengers or crew to wear or carry a device to trigger an MOB event.
The lack of standardized man overboard(MOB)detection system requirements has made it difficult for d users to objectively evaluate the safety and effectiveness of such systems.
BS ISO 21195:2020 addresses these issues by clearly defining the technical specifications for the equipment, thereby allowing manufacturers to develop systems against a common set of requirements and enabling end-users to evaluate the safety, effectiveness, performance and reliability of MOB detection systems.
BS ISO 21195:2020 provides a method to verify that a system operates to the required performance in a specified environmental window (Table 1 ) and against a manikin of the size described in 5.24.Systems that are operational outside the prescribed environmental conditions or used to detect people that do not conform to the effective manikin size can suffer some degradation in performance. It is not currently possible to quantify that degradation.
