The IFR 4000 NAV/COMM Test Set Flight Line and Ramp Test Set is designed to test ILS, VOR, marker beacon, HF/VHF/UFH/ communications (Nav/Comm) systems. With an optional ELT software upgrade, the IFR-4000 can test 121.5/243 MHz short range emergency beacons as well as 406 MHz COSPAS/SARSAT long range emergency beacons. The IFR 4000 has been engineered for portability, reliability, and easy-of-use. It can also be use for bench testing for general aviation.
This NAV/COMM test set operates from an internal battery when used in the field but may also operate from the provided AC/DC power adapter for bench testing, servicing and battery charging.
