关于近期多艘船舶因消防水雾系统存在问题，在进行港口国监督检查时被滞留的情况，马绍尔群岛共和国发布了海事安全报告。我司特撰写此通函以提醒船东客户以下需要留意的事项：
IG协会希望强调消防水雾系统要保持全天候完全可操作的重要性。
多数进入美国港口，因消防水雾系统被滞留的外国船舶，主要问题均在于水雾系统设定为“手动”模式，而非规定的“自动”模式。在多起事故中，检查发现船上供水阀处于关闭状态，这导致水雾系统“不能即时可用”。

PSC Detentions, Water Mist Systems – USA
The Republic of the Marshall Islands has issued a marine safety advisory regarding some recent PSC Detentions due to issues with water mist systems. We write this circular to remind the owner client of the below issue.
IG clubs would like to emphasize the importance of having all water mist systems fully operational, all the time.
The majority of the detentions regarding the water mist systems on foreign flagged vessels entering US ports were related to the system being in “manual” mode instead of “automatic” mode. In several cases, the water supply valve was found closed, rendering the water mist system “not readily available for immediate use”.
