GME MT600G EPIRB – Manually Activated 406MHz Digital EPIRB with GPS

The MT600G features a 66 channel GPS receiver with top mounted Quad helix antenna, which means locating the beacon is faster and more accurate than non-GPS EPIRBs. In an emergency, being found quickly could save the lives of you and your crew.

Compact and lightweight, the GPS-equipped MT600G is easy to install in any vessel, utilising the specially designed quick release mounting bracket. The MT600G features zero warm-up digital technology and an automatically deployed antenna.

Testing the MT600G is fast and easy. Simply remove the beacon from its bracket, press the test button and the full functionality of the beacon is tested and confirmed. The MT600G even offers a GPS Satellite Acquisition Test with GPS position fix for additional peace of mind.

Certified by Cospas-Sarsat for worldwide usage, and boasting a 10 year battery life, the MT600G represents great value for such an important piece of emergency equipment.

GME’s digital Emergency Position Indicating Radio Beacons (EPIRBs) have lead to hundreds of successful rescues in Australia and around the world. With over 35 years experience engineering and manufacturing EPIRBs in Australia, GME is at the forefront in development of life saving safety equipment. The MT600G builds on this heritage, delivering next generation performance to commercial and recreational mariners alike.
