NEW PRODUCT LAUNCH

Cospas-Sarsat Approved Life-Saving Personal Locator Beacon With Ais And Mobile App In One Compact Beacon For Boaters Ocean Signal Launches Rescueme Plb3.

The recently Cospas-Sarsat and RED approved Ocean Signal rescueME PLB3 gives boaters the most powerful safety solution for speedy rescue in a Man Overboard (MOB) emergency, combining various levels of integrated signal technology within a personal locator beacon for the first time.

The next-generation PLB3 combines two different key systems to give a survivor the best chance of quickly alerting others to a distress situation - benefiting from the global response capabilities of the Cospas-Sarsat rescue services while also using AIS technology to indicate a MOB position to nearby vessels for immediate assistance.

Ocean Signal has also included Near Field Communications (NFC) into the rescueME PLB3, providing beacon owners with a new option to monitor their beacons, evaluate self-test results, display GNSS test locations, and track beacon performance and maintenance. 

The current beacon information is automatically sent into the Ocean Signal mobile app for viewing by merely holding a mobile phone over the beacon's specified NFC area.Once engaged, the rescueME PLB3 sends an AIS man overboard signal that is picked up by any AIS equipped vessel within VHF radio range and plotted onto a connected chart plotter or ECDIS system.
