NEW Rugged, Technology Advanced EPIRB

KTI announces their new SA3G GPS equipped EPIRB

• NEW rugged switch mechanism
• TOUGHER new spring-based antenna
• UPDATED components & technology

KTI SafetyAlert SA3G EPIRBs incorporate a 66 channel GPS receiver which is accurate to 1.8 metres^** and provides the highest possible search-and-rescue location accuracy. Once activated, the SA1G will continue to transmit an updated GPS location every five (5) minutes for over three (3) days.

The SafetyAlert SA3G has an in-built high intensity strobe light for visual detection at night or in poor visibility and provides its GPS location ro search-and-rescue authorities within one (1) minute of activation.

The SafetyAlert SA3G EPIRB is extremely cost effective and low maintenance due to an engineering world first COSPAS/SARSAT approved 10 Year Battery.  The SafetyAlert SA3G is designed to go the distance so you may have complete confidence on land or at sea.

^** Whilst the GPS receiver has an accuracy of 1.8 metres, search-and-rescue authorities advise that the maximum accuracy they can resolve in all cases from an EPIRB is 120 metres.
