Ocean Signal

Personal emergency transmitter for sea, land or air. Wherever you are, the world's smallest personal emergency transmitter allows you to quickly call for help at the touch of a button. The device can be operated with one hand, and the emergency button is protected by an easy-to-open flap. The device comes with a 7-year warranty and 7-year battery life. The RescueME PLB1 emergency transmitter operates under the only global rescue network (Cospas-Sarsat), and sending an emergency message is free.

When the rescueME PLB1 is activated, it transmits the user's location and personal identification number (ID) to the rescue center via a satellite link. The rescue center then forwards the request for help and location to the nearest rescue authority for rapid assistance on site.
The device requires programming before use (included in the price).

Apply for a personal PLB permit from Traficom's website here , and provide the identification number from page 2 of the permit notification in the message field when ordering.

Electronic emergency flare RescueME EDF1 – visibility up to 7NM

The RescueME EDF1 is a safe and long-lasting solution for visual emergency signaling. It utilizes advanced LED technology and efficient circuit electronics to ensure consistent, bright light throughout the life of the replaceable battery . The beam covers over 30° of area across a full 360° and offers over six times the visibility of many other electronic emergency flares. In addition, the light is reflected into the entire hemispherical space above the device , improving visibility even from the air .

Unlike disposable pyrotechnic emergency flares, the RescueME EDF1 can be used repeatedly in various modes, including SOS . Its compact size and durable construction make it an excellent addition to a life raft , survival kit or backpack .

The test winner, Ocean Signal RescueMe PLB3 , is a personal satellite emergency beacon that also transmits a Man Overboard alert via the AIS system. When the beacon is activated, nearby vessels (with AIS) will see the beacon's location on their navigation display and are legally obliged to come to your aid. PLB stands for Personal Locator Beacon.

AIS has a limited range , especially when transmitting from the surface of the water, which is why this distress beacon also uses a satellite connection. When the distress beacon is activated, it also sends a distress signal via the Cospas-Sarsat system, which is a SAR (search and rescue) system. Before sending a distress signal, the satellites determine the location of the person in distress. The distress signal can be received by both satellites and ground stations with a precise location. The distress signal can be transmitted to rescue stations in over 200 countries. The distress beacon also has an RLS (Return Link Service) which provides confirmation that the distress signal has been received. This system is completely free to use and does not require a subscription, but the device must be registered.

Combining both local and global rescue capabilities for maximum safety, this emergency transmitter is a significant step forward in personal emergency transmitters. It is also NFC-compatible and can be paired with a smartphone. Other

The Ocean Signal rescueME EPIRB3 is a fully featured 406 MHz GMDSS approved Emergency Positioning Radio Beacon (EPIRB) that combines advanced rescue technology with a compact and modern design. Designed for both recreational and professional use , it is ideal for sailboats, powerboats, fishing and offshore travel.

Battery replacement kit for Ocean Signal PLB1 emergency transmitter.

Foam float bag for the PLB1 emergency transmitter. The PLB1 device itself is completely waterproof, but it does not float, so with the float bag you can make the device float. The bag has a belt loop, so you can attach the device to your waist and the device is always within reach.

Emergency battery pack for SafeSea V100 VHF radio. Also available is a rechargeable Lithium replacement battery for the V100 radio.

Hydrostatic release for Ocean Signal Sea Safe Epirb enclosures.

The world's most compact Class I EPIRB with an automatic release housing. The rescueME EPIRB1 Pro combines compact size, durable construction and reliable technology, making it an excellent safety solution for commercial vessels, fishing vessels and recreational boating .

Designed for maximum reliability and ease of use, the device has a 10-year battery life and long operating time after activation, ensuring that emergency services can quickly obtain your location and track it for a sufficient period of time during rescue operations.

The EPIRB1 Pro transmits a distress signal on a 406 MHz satellite frequency , monitored by the international Cospas-Sarsat search and rescue satellite system, ensuring a rapid response anywhere in the world.

In addition, the device includes a 121.5 MHz homing signal , which allows rescue personnel to accurately locate the vessel near the rescue area. A powerful LED strobe facilitates visual detection, especially in the dark.

The EPIRB1 Pro is equipped with a Class I Automatic Release Housing (ARH) . If the vessel sinks and the user is unable to activate the beacon themselves, the hydrostatic release automatically releases the device from the mount. The beacon activates and rises to the surface to transmit a distress signal to the satellite network.

The ARH housing also includes an adapter for retrofitting , allowing the device to be installed in the same mounting holes as many older EPIRB models, such as:

• Ocean Signal E100 / E100G
• McMurdo E5 / G5

• Jotron Tron 60S

If you are looking for an AIS-compatible EPIRB model , also check out the new EPIRB3 model.

FEATURES:

Replacement mounting bracket with rubber strap and wrist strap. The mounting bracket allows you to attach the PLB1 emergency transmitter to the inflatable life jacket inflation tube.

NOTE: Contrary to the picture, the product does not include an emergency transmitter and a float bag. The delivery includes a mounting plate, a rubber strap for attachment and a wrist strap.
