EPIRB with RLS , Mobile App and NFC and 10 Year Battery!
The new ACR GlobalFix V6 category 2 EPIRB is a versatile Emergency Position-Indicating Radio Beacon suitable for use on both recreational and commercial vessels. A Category 2 EPIRB is manually deployed. The EPIRB will automatically activate when removed from its bracket and comes in contact with water, or when it is still in its bracket but a person has lifted the switch to the activation position. The EPIRB uses 406 MHz satellite connectivity to transmit emergency signals to the global Cospas Sarsat satellite rescue system making it accurate within 100 meters. It also has a 121.5 MHz homing signal helping rescuers find the activated beacon when they are on scene. The visible and infrared strobe aids in target identification at night or when visibility is limited speeding up recovery.
Easily access EPIRB diagnostics with ACR’s free smartphone App and NFC (Near Field Communication) technology. Simply place your smartphone near your V6 EPIRB and the ACR Product App will open and display EPIRB data. View current battery life of the beacon, the number of GNSS and self-tests completed, and the amount of time the EPIRB has been activated. You can also check the status of all EPIRB functions ensuring it’s ready to go in case of an emergency.
The ACR 2854 has return link service indicating to the user that an EPIRB’s rescues transmission has been received. The RLS signal is sent through the Galileo satellite network confirming that the digital mayday including location and identifiers have been delivered. When the EPIRB has a successful reception of the return link message through the Galileo satellite network the unit will flash a blue light indicating the connection.
Every GlobalFIX V6 Category 2 EPIRB has a battery life of up to 10 years. If you are cruising, working, or fishing offshore the GlobalFix V6 is an ideal safety solution for your vessel.
*Both the Category 1 and Category 2 brackets will deactivate the EPIRBs water sensor feature so if the EPIRB should get wet while in the bracket, it will not cause a false alarm. EPIRB water activation is only possible when the EPIRB has been removed from the bracket and gets wet.
ACR’s 2854 is a Category II Manual Release Emergency Position Indicating Radio Beacon (EPIRB) that alerts search and rescue of your exact location with Return Link Services (RLS) providing direct to beacon confirmation that a distress signal has been sent. 10 Year battery. Pairs with ACR Smartphone App and NFC (Near Field Communication) allowing the user to easily access EPIRB diagnostics.
