Jumho Brideg Navigational Watch Alarm System (BNWAS)

Description

A bridge watch alarm system is a device which triggers an alarm if an Officer on Watch (OOW) becomes incapable of performing the OOW’s duties. IMO had adopted the performance standard as MSC. 128 (75) and there are ships which have already installed the equipment on a voluntary basis. Currently, there are two types, i.e., one which requires the OOW to press a button in an interval (if he fails to do so, it triggers the alarm), or another, which detects movements of the OOW, using the motion sensor technology. (So far as the sensor finds movement of the OOW, the alarm will not go off).

The IMO Committee approved the draft amendments to the SOLAS Regulation that requires the mandatory carriage of a bridge navigational watch alarm system for the subsequent adoption at the MSC. 86. (Amendments to the SOLAS Reg. V/19 –Carriage requirements for a bridge navigational watch alarm system.)

These requirements also apply to ships not engaged on international voyages.
