This ground breaking new McMurdo FASTFIND Satellite Personal Location Beacon (PLB) range is the most compact, waterproof and versatile 406 MHz emergency location beacon available.
There are two models in the FASTFIND PLB range, the FASTFIND PLB 200 and the FASTFIND PLB 210. The FASTFIND 210 has integral 50-channel GPS for additional pinpoint location, further speeding up time of location.
The compact size and weight of the new FASTFIND PLB make it a "must have" for any sailor or yachtsman. Weighing in at just 150g and with dimensions of D34mm x W47m) x L106mm the FASTFIND will slip into the smallest pocket or back pack compartment. The user can activate the PLB in the most remote locations around the world, on land, at sea or in the air, and be confident of being able to contact the world’s professional search and rescue services directly if they are unlucky enough to encounter life threatening situations.
FASTFIND complies with tough federal and international standards. FAST FIND operates on the global COSPAS SARSAT 406MHz search and rescue satellite communication system, which is supported by international government search and rescue authorities around the world, so aactivation of the PLB will be acted upon and fast. The FASTFIND is subscription free and does not rely on commercial call centres.
All FASTFIND Personal Location Beacons transmit two signals simultaneously, one to the subscription free global 406 MHz satellite system. The other (121.5MHz) is a homing signal designed to speed up the local recovery response process. Once activated, FASTFIND’s PLB signals will continue to transmit for at least 24 hours, at a powerful 5 watt output, the 406 MHz transmission ensures that an emergency call for help gets through whatever the conditions.
The FASTFIND PLB's also include a unique SOS LED flash light facility which is manually activated to further assist in speeding up the users recovery during night time rescues.
FASTFIND will operate in temperatures down to -20°c and its integral battery has a user storage life of 5 years, so there’s no need for constant battery changes and re-charging with FASTFIND Personal Location Beacon's.
