Northwind Cat II 406 MHz EPIRB with GPS

COM-SAF-00590
Category II 406 MHz EPIRB with 66-channel GPS and 10-year battery
25 In stock

Overview

When everything else has failed, the EPIRB is the one piece of equipment whose entire job is to bring help to a position, and it does it on a global system that does not care about cell coverage or radio range. Activated by hand or automatically when it floats free, this Category II beacon transmits a registered 406 MHz distress signal to the COSPAS-SARSAT satellite constellation and appends a GPS fix good to a boat length, so rescue coordinates arrive with the alert rather than after a search. A 121.5 MHz homing signal and a high-intensity strobe bring the aircraft or vessel the last mile. The lithium pack holds a ten-year standby life and a strong 48-hour transmit, and the housing is built to sit in a bracket for a decade and work the first time it is ever used.
