CA Clase introduces new S1000 AIS smart SART
CA Clase (UK) Ltd announces the launch of the new S1000 AIS Smart SART by Digital Deep Sea, now IMO approved and delivering affordable safety.
A SART (Search And Rescue Transponder) is a mandatory fit-for-life saving apparatus on all vessels over 300GRT. New legislation now allows an AIS SART to be used with associated performance and cost benefits. AIS SARTs positively identify the casualty and give a regular position update which can be graphically displayed on a Class A display, ECDIS or plotter.
The S1000 is a fully IMO compliant and approved AIS SART (Wheel Marked) which once activated, will display a target on any Class A or B transponder system or on an AIS receiver. It greatly aids recovery of the casualty or life-raft. The S1000 utilises specialist VHF antenna technology to offer exceptional range (typically up to 10NM) and has a battery life of 96 hours under operation. It comes with a storage bag and bracket mount and has a 1m telescopic pole integrated so it can be used in a life-raft. The integrated 50 channel GPS offers a very fast time to first fix (typically under 40 seconds) and thereafter position information is transmitted 8 times per minute. The SART shows as a specific SART target on any AIS system and a safety message (SART ACTIVE) is sent every 4 minutes.
CA Clase (UK) Ltd distributes an exceptional range of quality communication, navigation and entertainment products. The company’s cutting-edge portfolio offers high profile and well established brands including KVH, Digital Yacht, Nauticomp, GOST, Yacht Router and SAAB.
