GLOBAL-3 INMARSAT-E L-Band EPRIB

Imagine your problem

You are far away from land and your ship starts to sink. The water is cold and you need immediate help. You cannot afford to wait for help any longer than necessary. You want your distress call to be transmitted over a reliable system but you dont want to wait for a satellite to pass over you. You also need a system that transmits your identity and your position with the highest possible accuracy. You need a fast and accurate GPS position; you dont need a doppler estimate of your position, possibly dozens of miles away from your actual position.

That means you dont want to rely on a low earth orbiting satellite system. You require a geostationary satellite based system. At present only the Inmarsat network can suit your needs with dedicated Inmarsat-E transponders fitted to on the 4 geostationary satellites and the navtec global-3 satellite Emergency Position Indicating Radio Beacon (EPIRB) to transmit the distress alert.

Thats the difference with Inmarsat-E : the satellites are waiting for you, 24 hours a day, 365 days a year! Its not YOU waiting for a satellite.

The navtec global-3 EPIRB is an L-band EPIRB using Inmarsat-E transponder channelson geostationary satellites.

The technical specification of the navtec transmitter meets or even exceeds the mandatory standards and regulations of the IEC and ETSI as well as those of IMO and Inmarsat.

The navtec global-3 EPIRB is available for sale in three versions :

  1. EPIRB without a "float-free" cradle
  2. EPIRB mounted in a "float-free" cradle with hydrostatic release mechanism
  3. EPIRB mounted in a the "float-free" cradle with RCU (connected using a cable)
