APPLICATION
This EPIRB (Emergency Position Indicating Radio Beacon) is
designed for use in maritime emergencies and is approved for
these contingencies.
It is not designed or recommended for use on land or in the air.
Use the EPIRB only in situations of grave and imminent danger.
Intentional false alerts may result in penalties.
REGISTRATION
This EPIRB must be registered with the appropriate national
authority.
The function of the EPIRB is to send an alert to the COSPAS-
SARSAT satellites, as described in the Appendix. How soon an
alert is received depends on the positions of the satellites at the
time and can be influenced by overhead obstructions aboard the
vessel. Rescue time following an alert depends on the overall
performance of the Search and Rescue organisations, which is
outside the control of Kannad Marine.
