Boat personal locator beacon (PLB) AU11-X

AISVHF

The sMRT AU11-X is an ATEX Zone 2 approved Maritime Survivor Locating Device (MSLD) that combines advanced AIS, VHF DSC, and 121.5MHz technology for enhanced localised alerting, tracking, and recovery. Its water-activation technology and audible and visual indicators ensure rapid and efficient man overboard (MOB) recovery. The device's increased signalling range and Class M compliance guarantee reliable tracking over extended distances, making it highly effective in man-overboard incidents.Automatic activation alerts you to every MOB incident within 2-5 seconds, with GPS positions updated every minute via AIS. This ensures that you and every nearby vessel can become instant SAR assets, capable of tracking multiple casualties up to 75 miles away, significantly enhancing safety and effectiveness during emergencies.This product is available to hire as part of a customised rental solution.*Dependent on weather conditions, quality and height of receiving antenna.The flight approved sMRT AU11-HT AIS DSC MSLD offers an advanced man-overboard solution with AIS, VHF DSC, and 121.5 MHz technologies in a compact, durable design. It prioritises user-friendliness without compromising functionality or reliability, making it ready for immediate deployment. A key feature of the sMRT AU11-X is its water-activation technology. The integrated water sensors ensure activation upon immersion, automatically sending a distress alert and MOB location. This feature, along with manual activation, ensures the device operates effectively even in challenging conditions. Designed for tough marine environments, the sMRT AU11-X is housed in a rugged casing ensuring durability and resilience. The sMRT AU11-X also includes an internal DSC receiver to receive and display DSC acknowledgements. It complies with the 2024 ECC Class M requirements for man-overboard devices, meeting current industry standards and anticipating future safety needs.VHF DSC: Nearby vessels are automatically alerted about the man-overboard situation via DSC technology.AIS: The live location of the individual overboard is continuously updated and displayed through AIS technology.121.5 MHz: Features a low power homing signal to assist marine and aviation rescue efforts.Dual GNSS: Integrated GPS and Galileo receivers ensure rapid, global detection, enhancing accuracy in locating the individual.Class-M Compliance: Compliant with European regulation ECC/DEC/(22)02 pertaining to MOB device usage, ensuring adherence to international standards.Water Activation: Activates automatically when submerged in water for 2 seconds, ensuring a swift response in emergency situations.Strobe Light: Features a high-powered strobe light for enhanced visual identification during night-time, aiding rescue efforts in low-light conditions.Coloured LEDs: LEDs change colour based on the beacon's status, providing visual cues for device functionality and alerts.Audible Alarm: Features an audible alarm to aid in location and alert users of potential false activations, enhancing user awareness.Dual Activation Methods: Can be activated manually or upon water immersion, ensuring functionality even if the user is incapacitated or unable to activate the device.Waterproof Design: Designed to withstand water exposure, ensuring durability and reliable performance in marine environments.Technical Specifications / Features:ATEX Zone 2 approved Maritime Survivor Locating Device (MSLD)Combines AIS, VHF DSC, and 121.5MHz technologyAutomatic and manual activationWater-activation technologyAudible and visual indicators (strobe light, coloured LEDs, audible alarm)Class M compliance (ECC/DEC/(22)02)Internal DSC receiver for acknowledgementsRugged, waterproof casing for marine environmentsGPS positions updated every minute via AISTracking range up to 75 miles (dependent on conditions)Dual GNSS (GPS and Galileo)
