Artex's ME406 is a single output ELT that uses the same RF output and only one coax cable to transmit a 406 MHz emergency signal to the Cospas-Sarsat satellites and a local 121.5 homing signal. In the event of a crash, the ELT automatically activates and transmits a continuous swept tone of 121.5 MHz while the 406 MHz transmitter sends an encoded 5-watt signal to the Cospas-Sarsat Satellites every 50 seconds for 440 milliseconds to alert search and rescue.
  • Automatic fixed emergency locator transmitter
  • Provides single antenna output for both 121.5 and 406 MHz frequencies
  • Worldwide coverage
  • Mounting hardware is compatible with all previous models of the Artex 406 MHz ELT products as well as the ELT200 series, ACK Pointer Model 3000, and Narco ELTs
  • 6-year battery life
  • Weight (with tray): 2.05 lb (933 g)
