Overview
Artex’s ME406 is a single-output ELT that transmits a 406 MHz emergency signal to the Cospas/Sarsat satellites and a local 121.5 homing signal – all using the same RF output and one coax cable. In the event of a crash, the ELT automatically activates and proceeds to transmit a continuous swept tone of 121.5 MHz. As the ELT activates, the 406 MHz transmitter sends an encoded 5-watt signal to the Cospas Sarsat system every 50 seconds for 440 milliseconds to alert Search and Rescue. |
