What workboat and crane Professionals Are Saying

The LiberatorMAX is the perfect communication system for workboat and crane crews

No matter what kind of vessel you operate, Setcom has the right headset system for your marine communications requirements. Setcom’s marine systems are specifically designed for use on boats and ships. Reduce the fatigue on your ears and increase your communications capabilities with the other members of your crew, other vessels, and harbor control. Easily meet OSHA hearing conservation requirements with Setcom’s headsets that have up to 23dB noise reduction capabilities.

Pilothouse to Engine Room

One of the most critical applications for improved verbal interaction on workboats is for effective communications between the pilothouse and the engine room. On active vessels, crew spend significant time in the engine room and need to talk with the wheelhouse frequently. Setcom's customized marine solution allows for the engine room crew to wirelessly communicate to the pilothouse and other locations on the vessel while having hearing protection in one of the louder areas of a boat. Check out the following systems: LiberatorMAX Multi-Person Intercom and System 977 Intercom.

Pilothouse to Deck Crew

With all of the different tasks that deck crew do on a workboat, being able to communicate with the wheelhouse untethered and hands-free can greatly increase safety and efficiency. No more shouting, no more hand signals, no more miscommunication. Just highly effective verbal communication that makes your vessel run smoothly whether at the dock, harbor, or open sea. Check out the following systems: LiberatorMAX Multi-Person Intercom and System 977 Intercom.

Crane Operator to Dock or Other Vessels

Marine cranes present a communications challenge because of the relative isolation of the crane operator and the need to communicate hands-free. Setcom's market leading crane communication systems have been used in the field for over 45 years and are proven to solve this difficult communications application. Setcom's systems allow an operator to comply with OSHA regulations and effectively communicate with all boat and dock personnel. Check out the following systems: LiberatorMAX Multi-Person Intercom and 900SP Single-Person System.
