Detailed description

Oznaka EPIRB3 Pro 1. kategorije razreda 2 podjetja Ocean Signal predstavlja pomemben napredek v pomorski varnosti. Opremljena z avtomatskim sprostitvenim ohišjem združuje satelitski prenos Cospas-Sarsat 406 MHz (12 W) z tehnologijo AIS (1 W), da hkrati opozori svetovna reševalna centra in okoliške ladje. Vključenost storitve RLS (Return Link Service) zagotavlja vizualno potrditev, da je bil klic v sili uspešno prejet, kar je ključno v nujnih primerih.

Vrhunska tehnologija in NFC povezljivost

Z 72-kanalnim GNSS sprejemnikom zagotavlja ta oznaka izjemno hitro določitev položaja. Glavna inovacija je v NFC povezljivosti, ki uporabnikom omogoča preverjanje stanja oznake, zgodovine testov in kapacitete baterije neposredno preko aplikacije za mobilne naprave Android. Za razliko od prejšnjih modelov, kot je EPIRB1, vključuje EPIRB3 Pro tudi AIS za takojšnjo lokalno zaznavo na ladijskih kartografskih sistemih v bližini. 121,5 MHz (50 mW) radijsko vodeno signaliziranje olajša končno fazo iskanja reševalnih ekip.

Robustna konstrukcija za avtomatsko sproščanje (1. kategorija)

Konstruirana za najbolj zahtevna morska okolja je oznaka razreda 2, kar zagotavlja optimalno delovanje od -20°C do +55°C z avtonomijo več kot 48 ur zaradi litij-žveplove baterije (LiFeS2). Vsebnik 1. kategorije (237 x 191 x 121 mm) avtomatsko sprošča oznako do največje globine 4 metra v primeru brodoloma. Z skupno težo 1252 g (422 g za samo EPIRB) in vodotesnostjo, ki je zagotovljena do 10 metrov globine 1 uro, je oprema homologirana po MED in Cospas-Sarsat. Dimenzije montaže so zasnovane tako, da olajšajo zamenjavo, saj so združljive z luknjami starih nosilcev McMurdo E5-G5 ali Jotron Tron 60S.

Expert review

« The ultimate combination of satellite and local AIS alert »

The Ocean Signal EPIRB3 Pro beacon redefines offshore safety standards by combining global Cospas-Sarsat alerting with local AIS alerting. As installers, we particularly appreciate the Category 1 automatic release container, whose hydrostatic mechanism reliably triggers at 4 meters depth. The addition of the RLS is a major psychological asset for the crew, while the NFC diagnostic simplifies preventive maintenance without risking false alerts. Furthermore, its installation footprint allows direct replacement on the templates of older competitor models such as McMurdo E5 or Jotron Tron 60S, significantly reducing refit time on the helm deck.

Frequently asked questions

Need help? Contact us

What is the EPIRB3 Pro Category 1 beacon?

This is an automatic release maritime distress beacon. It combines:

406 MHz transmission (Cospas-Sarsat)AIS to alert nearby vesselsRLS to confirm signal reception

What is the difference between a Category 1 and Category 2 beacon?

Category 1 means the beacon is equipped with an automatic release housing. In the event of a shipwreck, the container opens and automatically releases the beacon at a maximum depth of 4 meters.

What is the RLS function used for on this beacon?

The RLS (Return Link Service) provides visual confirmation that your distress signal has been received by global rescue centers. This offers crucial psychological reassurance in an emergency situation.

How does the NFC connectivity of the EPIRB3 Pro work?

With NFC technology, you can simply bring an Android smartphone close to the beacon. Using a dedicated app, you can view:

The beacon's general statusThe history of tests performedThe remaining battery capacity

What is the battery's runtime in case of activation?

The lithium battery (LiFeS2) provides a runtime exceeding 48 hours of continuous operation, even in extreme conditions down to -20°C.

Can I replace the beacon battery myself?

No, replacing the batteries yourself is strictly discouraged. The operation must be performed by an approved professional to ensure the device's waterproofing and proper operation.

What is the purpose of the built-in AIS signal in the EPIRB3 Pro?

The AIS (Automatic Identification System) transmits a 1 W local alert signal. This signal appears directly on the chartplotters of nearby vessels, significantly speeding up rescue operations on scene.

What is the purpose of the 121.5 MHz frequency?

The 121.5 MHz frequency is a homing signal (50 mW). It allows search and rescue teams (helicopters, rescue vessels) to precisely locate the beacon during their final approach.

Is the beacon waterproof?

Yes, the EPIRB3 Pro beacon is fully waterproof. It is designed to withstand immersion to a depth of 10 meters for up to 1 hour.

What are the dimensions and weight of the unit?

The physical specifications are as follows:

Container dimensions: 237 x 191 x 121 mmWeight of the beacon alone: 422 gTotal weight (with container): 1252 g

Where should I install the automatic release housing on my boat?

The housing must be installed in an unobstructed location on the deck. There must be no obstructions above it to allow the beacon to float freely to the surface and maintain a clear view of the sky for GNSS signal in case of a man-overboard situation.

Is the EPIRB3 Pro bracket compatible with older models?

Yes, the mounting template of the container is designed to facilitate replacement. It is compatible with the drillings of several older brackets, including E100/G, McMurdo E5-G5, and Jotron Tron 60S models.

What operating temperatures does this beacon support?

As a Class 2 beacon, it is designed to operate optimally in extreme temperatures ranging from -20°C to +55°C.

How does the beacon obtain my GPS position?

It is equipped with a 72-channel GNSS receiver. This cutting-edge geolocation system enables ultra-fast and highly accurate acquisition of your position to transmit it immediately to rescue services.

What is the estimated lifespan of the beacon?

The estimated lifespan of the EPIRB and its mounting bracket is over 10 years, provided regular maintenance and battery replacement at the indicated expiry dates.

What happens if the tag is stored at very high temperatures?

Prolonged storage at very high temperatures can reduce battery life. It is recommended to adhere to the specified storage temperature range, which is from -30°C to +70°C.

At what depth does the automatic release trigger?

The automatic release mechanism for the container (category 1) triggers autonomously when the vessel sinks and reaches a maximum depth of 4 meters.

Should the beacon be tested regularly?

Yes, regular testing is recommended. The beacon allows for self-tests to verify battery status, 406 MHz and 121.5 MHz frequencies, AIS signal, and GNSS acquisition.

Which mobile app should I use to read NFC data?

To read the tag’s information via NFC, you must install the official Ocean Signal mobile application, which is available for smartphones running Android.
