ELT 4000M | Beacon and Battery (Alkaline)
Product Description
The ELT 4000M is a transport-grade 3 frequency Emergency Locator Transmitter (ELT) that utilizes alkaline batteries. This innovative power source means that the ELT 4000M is completely exempt from FAA special condition requirements. In the event of an emergency, the ELT 4000M can be activated manually or automatically to quickly alert local search and rescue teams of your situation. 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.
