Not all Billy Pugh Co. X-871 Personnel Baskets are ABS Type approved.
All type approved X-871 series personnel basket/nets start with a “5” in the serial number (ie. 5434-19).
The last 2 numbers are the year of manufacture.
All type approved products have the ABS tag attached (see photo) and the X-871 series has “ABS TYPE APPROVED” stenciled on the bottom orange cover.

Can the X-871 be refurbished?
A:
The X-871 series is not designed to be refurbished. The reason being that by the time the personnel net is taken apart and re-assembled with certified new parts, it is more expensive than buying a new net.
How often should the X-871 be replaced?
A:
As a general rule, we recommend that all Billy Pugh Co. X-871 series personnel nets be replaced annually when used on a daily basis (such as a jack-up drilling rig). On production platforms and other applications where the personnel net is used less frequently, we recommend that it be changed out every other year. This is a recommended guideline only and will vary depending on condition, how well the net is cared for and stored.
