Detailed description

ICOM GM1600E portatīvā VHF ir dzīvības glābšanas sakaru iekārta, kas izstrādāta, lai atbilstu Pasaules jūras negadījumu un drošības sistēmas (GMDSS) stingrajām prasībām. paredzēta izmantot glābšanas laivās, tā ir galvenais sakaru līdzeklis, kad uzticamība nav diskutējama.

GMDSS atbilstība un profesionāla izturība

GM1600E pilnībā atbilst GMDSS prasībām attiecībā uz temperatūras, termiskā šoka, vibrācijas un pret kritumu (1 metra augstumā) izturību. Tā ir sertificēta pēc IMO A.809 (19), A.694 (17) un IEC 61097-12. Dzeltenais augstas redzamības korpuss un IPX7 ūdensnecaurlaidība (aizsardzība pret 1 metra dziļuma iegremdēšanu 30 minūšu garumā) nodrošina, ka iekārta ir piemērota pat visnopietnākajiem jūras apstākļiem.

Radio veiktspēja, optimizēta glābšanai

Atšķirībā no atpūtas laivu portatīvajām VHF, kuras var sasniegt 6W, GM1600E darbojas ar 2W (augsta) vai 1W (zemāka) jaudu. Šis izvēles ir apzināts, lai maksimizētu baterijas autonomiju negadījuma situācijā. Superheterodīna dubultās pārveidošanas uztvērējs nodrošina augstu jutību (0.25 μV tipiski 12 dB SINAD), lai uztvertu vājākos signālus. Radio pārklāj pārraides frekvences no 156.000 līdz 161.450 MHz un uztveršanas frekvences no 156.000 līdz 163.425 MHz, iekļaujot visas starptautiskās jūras kanālus.

Ergonomika un tehniskās īpašības

Ar izmēriem 65 × 145 × 44 mm un svara 385 g (ar bateriju BP-234), GM1600E ir izstrādāta, lai to būtu viegli manipulēt arī ar cimdiem. Lietotāja interfeiss ir vienkāršots, lai nodrošinātu ātru piekļuvi kritiskajām funkcijām, it īpaši 16. kanālam. Tā darbojas temperatūru diapazonā no -20°C līdz +55°C un darbojas ar nominālo spriegumu 7.2 V līdzstrāvas. Tās mērķis ir skaidrs: kamēr ICOM IC-M94D piedāvā papildu funkcijas kā AIS un GPS, GM1600E koncentrējas tikai uz izturību un atbilstību savam glābšanas uzdevumam.

« The GMDSS reference for survival situations »

The ICOM GM1600E VHF is not a recreational radio; it is a certified survival instrument. Its design meets the extremely stringent GMDSS specifications, with every component tested to withstand the harshest conditions: drops, vibrations, thermal shocks. Its interface is deliberately minimalist to ensure flawless operation under stress, even with gloves. The 2W transmit power is a standard feature for this type of equipment, designed to maximize battery life—a critical factor in distress situations. This is the reference equipment for commercial fleets and offshore navigators subject to SOLAS regulations, where compliance and absolute reliability take precedence over all other considerations.

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 complies with 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 has 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 transmit power?

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

What is the reception system used by the GM1600E?

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 GM1600E VHF 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 listening of received 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 may fall below the squelch threshold, ensuring no important communication is missed.
