Description
The ACR GlobalFix V6 EPIRB is a versatile emergency position-indicating radio beacon suitable for use on both recreational and commercial vessels. High-tech features like Return Link Service (RLS) reassure users by confirming that the beacon has successfully sent the distress message and that the message has been received, while Near Field Communication (NFC) lets the beacon connect to a smartphone for quick diagnostics that confirm the battery is charged and the EPIRB is functioning properly.
The GlobalFix V6 accurately derives its position globally through GPS, Galileo, and Glonass GNSS positioning networks. Triggering the device produces a digital mayday using a 406 MHz distress transmission that relays GPIRB position, accurate to within 100 meters, to the worldwide Cospas-Sarsat search and rescue satellite network. A 121.5 MHz homing signal helps rescuers find the device once they arrive at the rescue scene, particularly useful if the beacon has drifted, and both a visual and infrared strobe help pinpoint the beacon to speed rescue operations. Return Link Service confirms through the Galileo satellite network that your digital mayday, including precise beacon location and identifiers, has been delivered, shown by an easy-to-see flashing blue light. Browse more in our marine safety category.
Key Features: 406 MHz Cospas-Sarsat digital mayday transmission, Return Link Service (RLS) confirmation, Near Field Communication (NFC) with free ACR Product App, 121.5 MHz homing signal, white and infrared dual strobe, 72-channel multi-constellation GNSS receiver, 10-year replaceable lithium battery, Category I hydrostatic auto-deploy, 5-year warranty.
