- Engine Room and Workshop Cranes
- Derrick Barge Cranes
- Deepwater Service Vessel Cranes

Periodic proof-load testing of these offshore crane are requested by internationally recognized standards specified by Det Norske Veritas – Germanischer Lloyd (DNV-GL), American Bureau of Shipping (ABS), Bureau Veritas, Lloyds Register, and others.
So, whether your crane is located key-side, offshore, in a shipyard, at a power plant, or other location, DOOWIN water weights bags will serve with your load testing service. We could also supply load cell and shackles equipped with the water bags as per your request.
KNUCKLE BOOM CRANES
The use of proof load test water bags for knuckle boom crane load testing is a safe technique for slowly applying the test load. For the reason that it allows technical problems with the crane to be recognized and corrected prior to reaching the full test load. In addition,you could drain the load water directly, not having to lower the test weight. So, it would be helpful in situations where the hoisting system or brakes were compromised in some way.
Furthermore, DOOWIN can provide custom designed rigging arrangements using high capacity load cells, spreader beams, slings and shackles. Our load cells are calibrated before delivery, so it ensures the measured loading on your crane accurate.
