ACR RLB-38 Satellite3 406 MHZ EPIRB
ACR RLB-38 Satellite3 406 MHZ EPIRB : Emergency Position Indicating Radio Beacon
The ACR Satellite series has built a strong reputation in the commercial and recreational marine industry. This redesigned workhorse utilizes a patented, proprietary electronics package for faster, more stable 406 MHz transmissions to low-earth orbiting LEOSAR satellites. In an emergency, your registered, digitally-coded distress message is broadcast via a powerful 6-watt, 406 MHz signal (typically within 1 hour). An integrated 121.5 MHz homing signal then guides local Search and Rescue efforts.
Upgrade to GPS positioning with the Optional GPS interface cable (sold separately). This connects the Satellite3 406™ to your vessel’s GPS receiver to continuously update and store precise position data. GPS positioning provides SAR notification typically within 2–15 minutes.
