S4 Rescue SART McMurdo

S4 Rescue SART- McMurdo

The S4 Rescue can be operated even with gloved or wet hands. Its compact design makes it ideally suitable for packing in liferafts or as a carry off device according to SOLAS regulations.

The S4 Rescue is a 9GHz X-band Radar transceiver and has been designed for assisting air/sea ship or survival craft rescue operations in accordance with IMO, GMDSS requirements.

When a radar signal is received from a ship or aircraft, the S4 Rescue automatically transmits a response signal, which clearly identifies the survival craft on the radar screen by means of a stream of 12 in-line dots. Once activated the S4 will remain in standby mode for over 96 hours.

The S4 Rescue has been designed for reliable operation in the toughest of marine environments, in accordance with IMO GMDSS requirements.

Designed to be stored in a survival craft or as a carry off device, the rugged McMurdo S4 Rescue SART is buoyant and waterproof to a depth of 10m. When it detects a radar signal from another vessel or aircraft, the S4 Rescue SART’s 9GHz X-band Radar transceiver will automatically transmit a response signal which will appear on the other vessel’s radar display as a series of 12 dots, pinpointing your location. An LED and buzzer indicates when the S4 has detected a radar signal and transmitted a response. The S4 will only transmit when it detects an incoming radar pulse – after 15 seconds it will drop to standby mode, conserving battery life and ensuring operation in excess of 96hrs.

Once activated the McMurdo S4 Rescue SART may be suspended inside the survival craft or mounted in an elevated position using the integrated extending pole.
