Aircraft ELT 4000M HM

with integrated GPS

The regulatory environment for Lithium Batteries has changed, and the ELT 4000M HM is here for it. ACR is providing innovative battery system designs that assure a trouble-free certification path. The Artex ELT 4000M HM is a 3 frequency ELT that is completely exempt from any FAA Lithium Battery compliance issues, and ships non-hazmat. The all new ARTEX ELT 4000M HM is a 3 frequency transport-grade Emergency Locator Transmitter (ELT) for the rotorcraft market that utilizes alkaline batteries. This innovative power source means that the ELT 4000M HM is completely exempt from FAA special condition requirements. ARTEX ELT 4000M HM cost of ownership benefits include a lower battery expense per cycle, no hazmat shipping and easy disposal. An integrated NAV interface (ARINC429) omits the requirement and expense of installing a separate NAV interface unit. How the ARTEX ELT 4000M HM works The ARTEX ELT 4000M HM can be activated manually (via cockpit remote switch) or automatically (the G-Switch senses a 2.3G or greater impact), and alerts the closest Search and Rescue agency of an emergency. The 406 MHz signal, containing the aircraft GPS coordinates, is transmitted to the Cospas-Sarsat satellites and relayed to the Mission Control Center where it is immediately routed to the nearest Search and Rescue agency. The beacon will provide first responders with the exact location to within 100 meters. Finally, the 121.5 and 243.0 MHz homing signals assist Search and Rescue ground forces with finding the location of the emergency.
