TRSCharter — TRSC Group

Equipment arrives inspected. It leaves inspected.

Hire, maintenance and sale of equipment for working on and under the water.

TRSCharter owns and maintains the group's assets: diving equipment, recompression chamber, boats, mobile base, vehicles and plant. We hire them out to diving contractors, project owners, construction companies and the group's companies.

You are

Three doors, depending on what you are looking for.

Equipment

Everything a site on the water needs, from a single hire company.

A site on the water needs diving equipment, something to float on, something to lift with and somewhere for the team. We hire out all four, for a day or for a season.

1

Diving equipment

Surface-supplied diving spreads, control panels, compressors and air storage, helmets and full-face masks, umbilicals with communication and video, hot water.

2

Recompression chamber

Mobile chamber, for hire or on standby at your site, with its team, transport and commissioning.

3

Boats and pontoons

Work boats and modular pontoons, for lakes, rivers and harbours.

4

Mobile base

Trailer-mounted technical unit: diving station, workshop and storage arrive on site together.

5

Lifting and power

Cranes, winches, hydraulic power packs and generators.

6

Vehicles and containers

Utility and off-road vehicles; diving, storage, office and changing-room containers.

Depth by depth

The matching diving spread

  1. 0 – 10 mFull-face mask and communication
  2. 10 – 40 mSurface-supplied air spread, helmet or mask, hot water as an option
  3. + 40 mMixed-gas spread, helmet, hot water and recompression chamber on site
The complete spread. A helmet alone does not make a dive. We hire out the whole spread, from compressor to helmet, tested together before it leaves: nothing turns out to be incompatible on the quayside.
The chamber on site. In Switzerland, a working treatment chamber must be on site as soon as the planned dive requires more than fifteen minutes of decompression (Art. 21 of Ordinance SR 832.311.12). We hire out the chamber with its team, on standby for the whole duration of the job.
Services

Hire, deliver, maintain, sell.

Our job does not end when we hand over the keys. We bring the equipment, look after it during the job and take it back.

Hire

By the day, the week or the month. You state the duration and the rate is set accordingly: the longer it is, the lower the price per day.

Chamber on standby

For dives that require it, the recompression chamber is available on site for the whole duration of the job, with a team that knows how to operate it.

Mobilisation and transport

Delivery, launching, set-up and collection at the end of the job. You do not have to organise the transport.

Maintenance and recertification

Servicing, periodic inspections and statutory recertification, on our equipment as well as on yours. Every intervention is dated and signed.

Sale

New equipment and used equipment from our fleet, inspected and sold with its history.

Equipment advice

You are building up a fleet or a diving spread: we help you choose what suits your depths and your jobs, and what is better hired than bought.

Inspection

Hired equipment is only safe if it has been inspected between two jobs.

Hire equipment has many users. What makes it reliable is not its age; it is what happens between one customer returning it and the next one taking it.

What happens to hire equipmentWhat we do
It goes out again the day after it comes back, uncheckedEvery returned item is inspected and brought back into compliance before it is hired out again. The turnaround depends on the item, and it is respected.
A fault is noticed, but it is used until it breaksA fault reported on site reaches us the same day. We step in before it stops the work.
Nobody knows when it was last inspectedInspections and recertifications are recorded item by item. You receive the history with the equipment.

Three questions to ask before hiring or using equipment

1

The last inspection

When was this equipment last inspected, and by whom? A dated and signed document answers.

2

The breakdown

If it fails in the middle of the job, how quickly is it replaced? A lead time answers.

3

The helmet

Do your divers own their helmets? If so, who is responsible for inspecting them? An equipment list and a name answer.

Respect. In Switzerland, the employer provides the employed diver's protective equipment, bears its cost and keeps it in good condition (Art. 5 and 90 OPA, SR 832.30). Whether or not it belongs to the diver, the company is responsible for it. Equipment hired from us arrives with its inspection history.
Hire

An account, a duration, a quote.

Our terms vary with the customer and the duration. We therefore open an account for each customer before the first hire.

1

The account

You fill in the form below. We approve your request and open your account, with your own terms.

2

The quote

You state the equipment, the location and the duration. The quote is checked by a technician before it is confirmed to you.

3

Departure and return

The equipment leaves inspected, with its history. On return, it is inspected again and you receive the report.

Abroad. Our equipment leaves Switzerland for your sites, wherever they are. For a job outside Switzerland, tell us when you make your request: export and re-import through customs are prepared before departure.
