ARTEX- ME406 Black ELT MILITARY
As a single-output ELT, the Artex ME406 Black utilizes the same RF output to transmit 121.5 and 406 MHz emergency signals to the Cospas/Sarsat satellites. The ELT automatically activates during a crash and transmits a continuous swept tone of 121.5 MHz. During activation, the 406 MHz transmitter sends an encoded 5-watt signal every 50 seconds for 440 milliseconds to alert Search and Rescue.
Low Infrared Signature
The ME406 Black is configured for a low IR signature. The black design and NVG filtered LED reduce the ability of visual detection when removed from the aircraft and placed in operation. Crew security is not compromised with a visual beacon in the night.
Easy Removal from Aircraft
The stainless steel "twist-lock strap" mounting system is designed for easy removal. Should circumstances require a move to a more protected or accessible area, the auxiliary antenna allows continued transmission of the distress signal, after removing the ELT from a downed aircraft.
