ACR ResQLink 400 View PLB

The ACR ResQLink 400 View is an extra small PLB (Personal Locator Beacon) that fits in one hand and in any pocket. It has a 66-channel GPS receiver and an LCD display for status indication.

Before delivery, the MMSI of your vessel must be programmed into the EPIRB.

To do this, please select the initial programming (Article-No. 3957-000) under "Accessories" further down on this page. In the last step of the order process, you can enter the required ship data under "Remarks": Ship name, MMSI, IMO no., call sign, flag.

After activation in case of distress, the PLB alerts the worldwide available satellites of the COSPAS/SARSAT system on the frequency 406 MHz. Together with the distress message, the MMSI of the vessel and the exact position of the PLB are transmitted.

This distress message is received by a ground station and passed on to the sea rescue centre of the disaster area, which initiates and coordinates the rescue operation. Alarmed rescue aircraft and ships are then guided to the scene of the accident via a VHF homing signal on 121.5 MHz. In addition, the buoyant PLB emits an LED strobe signal to aid location.
