Description

The distress beacon (EPIRB) alerts via COSPAS/SARSAT satellites. The Return Link Service (RLS) provides visual confirmation that the distress message has been received, giving a reassuring feeling. Near field communication (NFC) allows the EPIRB to be monitored via an app using a (suitable) smartphone.

Before delivery, the MMSI of your vessel must be programmed into the EPIRB.

To do this, please select the initial programming (Article-No. 3957-000) under "Accessories" further down on this page. In the last step of the order process, you can enter the required ship data under "Remarks": Ship name, MMSI, IMO no., call sign, flag.

Buoyant yellow polycarbonate housing. Integrated, fast-starting 72-channel GNSS receiver (GPS, Galileo, Glonass). Alerted rescue aircraft and ships are guided to the scene of the accident via the VHF directional radio signal (homing signal) on 121.5 MHz. Bright LED strobe flash (also infrared). Lithium battery with ten-year replacement cycle (must be replaced by a service centre). Space-saving, retractable antenna. With self-test functions.
