SmartFind G8 EPIRB

SmartFind E8 - the highlights of the new EPIRB:

  • EPIRB with three SAR (search and rescue) frequencies, the SmartFind G8 AIS supports reporting, locating, tracking and rescue:
    • 406 MHz: emergency frequency of the global COSPAS-SARSAT rescue system
    • 121.5 MHz: Direction finding frequency of the flight task forces
    • GNSS: Precise GPS coordinates by receiving 72 satellites (GPS, Galileo, GLONASS)
  • Battery life of 10 years (storage)
  • User-changeable battery
  • Triggering of the EPIRB manually and automatically on contact with water
  • Faster emergency detection via the 406 MHz frequency through MEOSAR compatibility
  • McMurdo has a global service network and is the only EPIRB manufacturer in the world that is also building the Cospas-Sarsat and MEOSAR infrastructure

Innovation comes as standard with McMurdo SmartFind EPIRBs, with heavy-duty housings, easy battery service and MEOSAR compatibility. The additional protection against accidental triggering and multiple self-tests bring maximum user confidence. With a unique heritage in the marine market, a commitment to quality and a long history of innovation, customers know they can count on McMurdo when their lives are in jeopardy.

Part of the McMurdo system

Engineered with McMurdo's unique understanding of the technical requirements to best utilize the Cospas-Sarsat system

  1. Recommendation - 1 test per month over 10 years. Long tests twice a year over 10 years. Carry out long tests in the open air. Obstacles increase the time it takes to determine a GPS position, which in turn reduces battery life. Long tests can only be carried out if the function of the GNSS receiver appears questionable.
  2. Warranty is 1 year from date of purchase, additional 4 years when registered with McMurdo. An additional year is granted for a 5-year security check.

McMurdo recommends the 5-year safety check. Shore-based maintenance maintenance, battery checks or replacements 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 it is providing security on. Until further notice we will take over the programming for you free of charge . To do this, we need the allocation document from you, which shows the MMSI. We will contact you after you have placed your order, or you can send us the document directly by e-mail (scanned) after you have placed your order.
