Detailed description

Prijenosna VHF ICOM GM1600E je uređaj za komunikaciju u nuždi koji je dizajniran za stroge zahtjeve Globalnog pomorskog sustava za uzbunjivanje i sigurnost (GMDSS). Namijenjena za uporabu u brodovima za spašavanje, ona je konačni komunikacijski alat kada pouzdanost nije upitna.

GMDSS sukladnost i profesionalna robusnost

GM1600E u potpunosti zadovoljava zahtjeve za temperaturu, toplinski udar, vibracije i otpornost na udarce (s visine od 1 metra) kako je propisano GMDSS normama. Certificirana je prema IMO A.809 (19), A.694 (17) i IEC 61097-12. Njezin visoko uočljiv žuti kućište i IPX7 zaštita, koja osigurava zaštitu od uranjanja do 1 metra dubine tijekom 30 minuta, čine je savršenim uređajem za najzahtjevnije morske uvjete.

Radio performanse optimizirane za preživljavanje

Za razliku od prijenosnih VHF uređaja za rekreaciju koji mogu doseći 6W, GM1600E radi s izlaznom snagom od 2W (visoka) ili 1W (niska). Ovaj je izbor namjeran kako bi se maksimizirala autonomija baterije u situaciji nužde. Superheterodinski prijemnik s dvostrukom konverzijom osigurava visoku osjetljivost (0,25 μV tip. pri 12 dB SINAD) za hvatanje najslabijih signala. Radio pokriva frekvencije odašiljanja od 156,000 do 161,450 MHz i prijema od 156,000 do 163,425 MHz, uključujući sve međunarodne morske kanale.

Ergonomija i tehničke karakteristike

S dimenzijama 65 × 145 × 44 mm i težinom od 385 g (s baterijom BP-234), GM1600E je dizajnirana za jednostavno rukovanje, čak i s rukavicama. Korisničko sučelje je pojednostavljeno za brzi pristup kritičnim funkcijama, posebno kanalu 16. Radi u temperaturnom rasponu od -20°C do +55°C i napaja se nominalnim naponom od 7,2 V DC. Njezina je pozicija jasna: dok ICOM IC-M94D nudi funkcije poput AIS-a i GPS-a, GM1600E se usredotočuje isključivo na robusnost i sukladnost za svoju misiju preživljavanja.

« Referentni GMDSS uređaj za preživljavanje »

ICOM GM1600E VHF nije obični brodski radio, već certificirani uređaj za preživljavanje. Njegova konstrukcija udovoljava iznimno strogim specifikacijama GMDSS-a, pri čemu je svaka komponenta testirana da izdrži ekstremne uvjete: padove, vibracije, temperaturni šok. Namjerno je pojednostavljena sučelje kako bi se osiguralo besprijekorno rukovanje u stresnim situacijama, čak i s rukavicama. Ograničena snaga emitiranja od 2W standardna je karakteristika ovakve opreme, a cilj joj je osigurati maksimalnu autonomiju baterije – kritičan faktor u situacijama opasnosti. Ovo je referentna oprema za komercijalne flote i dalekomorske navigatore koji podliježu SOLAS propisima, gdje su sukladnost i apsolutna pouzdanost prioritet nad svim drugim razmatranjima.

Frequently Asked Questions

Need help? Contact us

What is the primary use of the ICOM GM1600E handheld VHF?

The ICOM GM1600E VHF is specifically designed as a survival communication device for distress situations at sea. It meets the strict requirements of the Global Maritime Distress and Safety System (GMDSS) and is intended for use in lifeboats and liferafts.

Why is the transmit power 2W, while other VHF radios go higher?

The output power is deliberately limited to 2 Watts (high) and 1 Watt (low) to comply with GMDSS requirements. This power level is optimized to maximize battery life in a survival situation, where communication duration is more critical than maximum range.

Can an external microphone or speaker be connected?

Yes, the VHF is equipped with an accessory port [MIC/SP] that allows connection of a remote microphone-speaker or other compatible audio accessories.

How to switch between high and low transmission power?

You can change the transmission power by pressing the [HI/LO] button. A "LOW" indicator appears on the display when low power (1W) is selected. No indication is shown for high power (2W).

What reception system does the GM1600E VHF use?

The VHF uses a high-quality dual-conversion superheterodyne receiver system, ensuring excellent sensitivity and selectivity to pick up weak signals.

Is a lanyard provided with the VHF?

Yes, in compliance with safety equipment regulations, a neck lanyard is provided with the GM1600E VHF to keep it securely attached to the user.

What is the audio power of the speaker?

The VHF's internal speaker delivers an audio power of 0.20 Watt into an 8 Ω load, sufficient for clear listening in noisy environments.

Is the antenna removable?

Yes, the VHF GM1600E is equipped with a standard 50 Ω antenna connector, meaning the antenna is removable. You can unscrew it for storage or replace it if necessary.

What is the audio output power of the speaker?

The internal speaker of the VHF GM1600E delivers an audio output power of 0.20 W with an 8 Ω load, ensuring clear reception of incoming communications.

What is the MONI (monitor) function used for?

The MONI (monitor) function, activated via the [SQL•MONI] key, temporarily opens the squelch. This is useful for listening to very weak transmissions that might fall below the squelch trigger threshold, ensuring no important communication is missed.
