URSUIT SERVICING<br />
<strong>PPE</strong> AND <strong>PFPE</strong> INSPECTION<br />
HIRE<br />
At our Service Centre, we are able<br />
to offer fully certified inspection,<br />
cleaning and testing and repair of<br />
Ursuit Immersion Suits.<br />
In line with SOLAS safety standards, with respect to critical<br />
lifesaving equipment, <strong>OAASIS</strong> in partnership with Ursuit have<br />
introduced an annual service and recertification program to<br />
ensure that all suits remain certified and fit for purpose, for the<br />
expected life of the product.<br />
To ensure the highest standards are maintained, all service<br />
activities are carried out by an approved Ursuit Service Centre.<br />
By performing the servicing and recertification of all Ursuit<br />
equipment in this manner, we ensure that dedicated, fully<br />
trained personnel perform all service activities in a consistent,<br />
professional and expedient manner. All test activities are<br />
undertaken utilising specialised custom built equipment that<br />
has been approved.<br />
We maintain detailed records of all servicing activities; log<br />
the results of all tests, repairs, serial numbers, and customer<br />
details.<br />
A recertification certificate is issued after each service and the<br />
equipment then has an additional 12-month warranty.<br />
<strong>OAASIS</strong> offer bespoke Personal Protective Equipment (<strong>PPE</strong>)<br />
and Personal Fall Protection Equipment (<strong>PFPE</strong>) inspection<br />
services for companies involved in Work at Height. Our services<br />
range include complete inspection, assessment, marking and<br />
logging of all specialist Work at Height and Confined Space<br />
equipment or <strong>PPE</strong>.<br />
Our fully trained personnel undertake thorough visual<br />
inspections of equipment and assessment of key elements to<br />
give a detailed report of inspection and most importantly a<br />
PASS or FAIL result to determine if the product is safe for use.<br />
Thorough examinations by a ‘competent person’ of any lifting<br />
equipment used for lifting persons (such as Personal Fall<br />
Protection Equipment) are required by law to be conducted<br />
at least every 6 months (or less if recommended by the<br />
equipment manufacturer) as detailed in the Lifting Operations<br />
and Lifting Equipment Regulations (LOLER) 1998.<br />
The Provision and Use of Work Equipment Regulations<br />
(PUWER) 1998 states that ‘Work equipment exposed to<br />
conditions causing deterioration which is liable to result in<br />
dangerous situations must be inspected at suitable intervals’<br />
and that any lifting equipment should also be ‘thoroughly<br />
examined’ after it has been subjected to ‘any exceptional<br />
circumstances which are liable to jeopardise the safety of<br />
the work equipment’ (such as shock-loading / dropping from<br />
height).<br />
<strong>OAASIS</strong> offers a complete hire service for marine life saving<br />
equipment such as Ursuit transfer suits and Life Jackets<br />
with PLBs. Our hire fleet is regularly inspected, cleaned and<br />
recertified to ensure each product is safe for purpose when<br />
they are required. Further hire packages including <strong>PPE</strong> and<br />
Working at Height equipment can also be discussed.<br />
In many instances, hiring equipment is more cost efficient than<br />
purchasing for temporary or on-going projects and workplace<br />
situations. <strong>OAASIS</strong> are able to provide both long and short<br />
term hire solutions with our growing fleet of hire equipment.<br />
With an on-site Service Centre, we can ensure our clients<br />
receive competitive rates and turnaround times to meet<br />
expectations and demand. We can build bespoke packages to<br />
the requirements of clients.<br />
Built in service and inspection costs – our hire rates include<br />
the cost of servicing and inspection of equipment annually<br />
and as needed before/after hiring.<br />
No man hours lost time due to service and inspection – if an<br />
annual inspection falls within a hire period, we will provide<br />
replacement equipment to ensure no down time whilst<br />
equipment is serviced.<br />
