Description

SmartFind G8 EPIRB

SmartFind E8 - the highlights of the new EPIRB:

With three SAR (search and rescue) frequencies, the SmartFind G8 AIS supports alerting, locating, tracking and rescue:
- 406 MHz: Emergency frequency of the global COSPAS-SARSAT rescue system
- 121.5 MHz: Homing frequency for air rescue services
- GNSS: Precise GPS coordinates through reception from 72 satellites (GPS, Galileo, GLONASS)
Battery life of 10 years (storage)
Battery can be replaced by the user
EPIRB activation manually and automatically on contact with water
Faster emergency detection via the 406 MHz frequency thanks to MEOSAR compatibility
McMurdo has a global service network and is the only EPIRB manufacturer worldwide that is also involved in building the Cospas-Sarsat and MEOSAR infrastructure

With McMurdo SmartFind EPIRBs, innovation is standard, with highly durable housings, simple battery service and MEOSAR compatibility. Additional protection against accidental activation and multiple self-tests provide maximum user confidence. Thanks to its unique tradition in the marine market, commitment to quality and long history of innovation, customers know they can rely on McMurdo when their life is at risk.

Recommendation - 1 test per month over 10 years. Long tests twice a year over 10 years. Perform long tests under open sky. Obstacles increase the time required for GPS position determination, reducing battery life. Long tests should also only be carried out if the function of the GNSS receiver appears questionable.
Warranty is 1 year from the date of purchase, plus an additional 4 years upon registration with McMurdo. An additional 1 year is granted with the 5-year safety check.

McMurdo recommends the 5-year safety check. Shore-based maintenance, battery checks or replacement should be carried out in accordance with the flag state administration and should not exceed 5 years.

Programming:

Each EPIRB must be programmed with the MMSI of the vessel on which it provides safety coverage. Until further notice, we will carry out the programming for you free of charge. For this, we require the allocation certificate showing the MMSI. We will contact you after your order, or you can send us the certificate directly by email (scanned) after placing your order.
