Prepare for marine emergencies
When you’ve used up all your options to save yourself, the reliable GME Accusat MT603FG Auto Release EPIRB will get you the help you need during an emergency.
Why Have an EPIRB?
An EPIRB can save your life and the lives of others on board by providing rescue authorities your precise location in the event of an emergency. GME EPIRBs are self-contained 406 MHz radio transmitters that emit an internationally recognised distress signal on the COSPAS-SARSAT satellite system.
The GME Accusat MT603FG Auto Release EPIRB contains a unique identity code which can be cross referenced to a database of registered 406 MHz beacons, allowing the beacon’s owner and vessel to be immediately identified in the event of an emergency.
GPS Equipped
The MT603 GPS Series features an integrated 66 channel GPS receiver which automatically acquires the position and relays the latitude and longitude of the beacon along with the personal identifier and emergency signal to rescue authorities. Additionally, each unit includes an ultra-high performance solid state strobe and 121.5MHz VHF homing beacon to assist in guiding rescuers to your precise location.
Water Activation
The MT603 GPS Series will automatically activate when out of the bracket and deployed in water. The MT603FG will automatically deploy and activate when it reaches a depth of 1 metre in water. It can also be manually activated by the operator in an emergency situation.
