Description

The ACR GlobalFix V6 is a Category 2 Emergency Position-Indicating Radio Beacon (EPIRB) designed for use on both recreational and commercial vessels. When activated, it transmits a distress signal via the worldwide Cospas-Sarsat search and rescue satellite network using a 406 MHz digital distress transmission accurate to within 100 meters globally, while simultaneously broadcasting a 121.5 MHz homing signal to help rescuers locate the beacon at the scene. A flashing blue LED light confirms successful satellite signal reception, and both visual white and infrared strobes help rescuers pinpoint the device.

The GlobalFix V6 features Return Link Service (RLS), which sends a confirmation signal back to the beacon via the Galileo satellite network so users know their distress message has been received and rescue operations are being launched. Near Field Communication (NFC) technology allows users to connect to the free ACR App on a smartphone for easy diagnostics, battery status, GNSS self-test results, and overall EPIRB health checks. Long life lithium LiFFeS2 batteries provide a 48-hour minimum operational life with a 10-year replaceable battery. An essential offshore safety device alongside other survival gear and emergency equipment.

Key Features: 406 MHz and 121.5 MHz transmission, Return Link Service (RLS) confirmation to beacon, Near Field Communication (NFC) with free ACR mobile app, 72-channel multi-constellation GPS/Galileo/Glonass receiver, visual white and infrared strobes, waterproof to 33 ft for 5 minutes, buoyant, Category 2 manual deployment, 48-hour minimum operational life, 5-year warranty, and Cospas-Sarsat, FCC, and RED approved.
