Recommendations for Management of Cargo Alarm Systems/Рекомендации по управлению системами сигнализации грузов

Книга на английском языке
This publication recommends the implementation of alarm management philosophies for cargo alarm systems on gas carriers. The recommendation is for ship owners to work with system designers, Classification Societies and shipyards, to create a management system for cargo alarms on each ship. The information in this publication is based on existing philosophies in the ISM Code, the Code on Alerts and Indicators, the IGC Code and IEC 62682 (Reference 1, Reference 2, Reference 3 and Reference 4). Alarm management is a good example of how Human Element considerations can lead to improved safety performance.
