In the following video we discus the various types of Position Indicating Radio Beacons. We explore the diffrences between an EPIRB, GPIRB, ELT and the increasingly less expensive PLB’s . We
EPIRBs are a component of the GMDSS, as well as a key element of Cospas-Sarsat. This international satellite-based system detects and locates emergency beacons activated by aircraft, ships and persons in distress, and forwards this alert information to search and rescue (SAR) authorities. In plain words, Cospas-Sarsat performs the "search
Locate the dial on the enclosure cover, press in and turn dial anti-clockwise to the unlocked position and remove the cover (see page 12). Remove the EPIRB from the lever arm and stow it in a dry place (see page 12). WARNING – The EPIRB will activate if the sea contacts (see page 6) come into contact with water.

There are three types of 406 emergency beacons used to transmit distress signals, EPIRBs (for maritime use), ELTs (for aviation use), and PLBs (handheld personal, portable units for remote-environment use). 406 MHz Emergency beacons are digitally coded and transmit distress signals immediately upon activation. 406 refers to the proprietary radio wavelength these beacons transmit on.
Emergency Position Indicating Radio Beacon (EPIRB) is a device to alert search and rescue services (SAR) in case of an emergency out at sea. It is tracking e
In April, the company released three fully COSPAS-SARSAT approved AIS EPIRBs according to new SOLAS requirements. Jotron’s new generation EPIRBs meet the regulatory requirements for all kind of vessels and is granted the equipment authorization from the US Federal Communications Commission (FCC). In addition, Jotron’s Tron 60AIS EPRIB is
The annual testing of 406 MHz satellite EPIRBs is required by SOLAS regulation IV/15.9. The volume of annual beacon testing is described in IMO MSC.1/Circular 1040. MSC/Circ.955 further recommends that annual testing of the EPIRB shall be carried out concurrently with the Annual Safety Radio Survey. Shore-based maintenance volume is described

Secure the EPIRB to the survival craft and mount the SART in a position to maximize its elevation. Which action is the most appropriate action for GMDSS radio operator to take in a distress situation where immediate help is needed, but the vessel is not sinking nor needs to be abandoned?
E100/E100G. E100G EPIRB incorporates a state of the art 50 channel GPS receiver for fast and accurate position acquisition. Manual bracket, manual release housing and float free housing options. The SafeSea E100 & E100G EPIRBs have been designed and are engineered to meet the needs of all commercial, fishing and offshore recreational vessels.
406 EPIRB: A 406 Satellite EPIRB is a requirement of GMDSS for the purpose of transmitting a distress alert signal ashore and for transmittinga locating signal. This EPIRB must be mounted in a float free location. SART: Cargo ships/MODUs >300GT but <500GT are required to only carry one SART.
results were obtained with a SART in a survival craft: – SART lying flat on the floor: range 1.8 nm – SART standing upright on the floor: range 2.5 nm – SART floating in the water: range 2.0 nm 3. Effects of survival craft on SART signal Tests have been made with a SART mounted on a survival craft to give a 1 m antenna height, in order to
Ensure SART and EPIRB have been carried; Take a headcount; Cut the painter using the knife, paddle, or anchor, clear away from the ship. If the life raft inflates and is upside down, the raft has a righting strap capable of stabilizing it. Climb onto the CO2 cylinder and pull it in the same direction as the wind to do so.
