Classification Of Common Marine Position Indicator Lamp Equipment Devices

Marine position indicator LAMP equipment is a lighting system used on a ship to identify the ship's position, direction and status. These lights help ensure the safe navigation of the ship at night or in bad weather conditions.

According to ship collision avoidance regulations, ships must be equipped with different types of position indicators so that other vessels and observers can identify the ship's position and direction of travel. Here are some common Marine position indicator devices:

Navigation lights: Navigation lights are used to identify the ship's position and direction of travel. For example, the green light indicates the starboard side of the ship, the red light indicates the port side of the ship, and the white light indicates the bow and stern of the ship.

Anchor lights: Anchor lights are used to indicate the position of a ship when it is at anchor or at anchor.

Towing light: The towing light is used to identify the location of the towing boat or the boat being towed.

Ship status lights: These lights are used to indicate the status of the ship, such as that the ship is engaged in maneuvering, operations, or other specific activities.

These position indicator devices are essential to the safe navigation of the ship, and the crew must be familiar with their purpose and proper use.
