Full title and description
ISO 3078:2016 — Shipbuilding — Cargo winches. This International Standard specifies the general requirements for cargo winches used on cargo derricks, with particular emphasis on electrically driven and hydraulically driven winches.
Abstract
ISO 3078:2016 sets out general design, construction, performance and testing requirements for cargo winches fitted to cargo derricks on ships. It is intended to ensure safe, reliable operation and compatibility with related deck machinery standards.
General information
- Status: Published
- Publication date: 17 November 2016
- Publisher: International Organization for Standardization (ISO)
- ICS / categories: 47.020.40 (Deck machinery / shipboard cargo-handling equipment)
- Edition / version: Edition 3 (2016)
- Number of pages: 8
Scope
Specifies the general requirements of cargo winches on cargo derricks, particularly those with electric or hydraulic drive. The standard covers design intent, essential performance and testing requirements but does not replace detailed manufacturer specifications or classification society rules.
Key topics and requirements
- General design and construction requirements for cargo winches used with cargo derricks.
- Requirements addressing electric and hydraulic drive systems and essential control/braking features.
- Performance characteristics (rated capacities, line pull, drum capacity and speeds) and safe working provisions.
- Testing, inspection and verification procedures to demonstrate compliance (functional tests, load tests where applicable).
- Marking, documentation and basic installation considerations for shipboard use.
- Normative references to related deck-machinery and wire-rope standards (for example ISO 2408, ISO 6482, ISO 7825 among others).
Typical use and users
Used by shipbuilders, naval architects, deck machinery and derrick manufacturers, marine equipment designers, classification societies, ship operators and ship repair yards to guide design, procurement, testing and regulatory compliance for cargo-handling winches.
Related standards
Commonly referenced standards include ISO 2408 (steel wire ropes — characteristics), ISO 6482 and ISO 7825 (deck machinery general requirements) and other ISO standards covering mooring and deck machinery. National/industry rules and classification society rules are also typically used alongside ISO 3078:2016.
