The MT600G GME 406MHz GPS EPIRB is a purpose-built beacon for serious maritime safety. Built on more than three decades of Australian EPIRB engineering excellence, this manual-activation emergency beacon delivers rapid localization when every second counts. Designed for crews who demand reliability, the MT600G pairs robust performance with practical on-board ease of use.

Speedy, precise location when it matters most

In a distress at sea, decisive assistance is everything. The MT600G’s highly capable 66-channel GPS receiver, combined with a quadrifilar helix antenna, focuses search efforts to a radius of less than 100 meters. Add the 121.5 MHz homing signal to help rescuers pinpoint your position quickly, even in challenging conditions. This dual-positioning approach reduces search times and improves chances of a swift, successful rescue.

Why this EPIRB stands out

  • GPS precision you can rely on: 66-channel internal receiver with a robust, self-contained antenna system for accurate location data.
  • Global feasibility: COSPAS-SARSAT certified to C/S T.001 (Class 2) requirements, enabling worldwide usage and recognition by rescue services.
  • Emergency homing aid: 121.5 MHz distress beacon complements 406 MHz signaling to guide responders to your exact location.
  • Long-lasting power: 10-year replacement-cycle battery ensures readiness when needed, with clear maintenance timelines.
  • Ready-to-use deployment: Quick-release mounting bracket and automatically deployed antenna streamline setup in critical moments; activation is manual by the operator for control and safety.
  • Rugged, marine-ready design: SOLAS retro-reflective tape for visibility, buoyant retention lanyard (approximately 5.5 m), and a flexible, self-straightening stainless steel antenna for reliable performance in demanding conditions.
  • Operational versatility: UHF channel 406.040 MHz with 5W ± 2 dB PSK (digital) plus VHF 121.5 MHz output (min 25 MW PERP at 25°) for broad compatibility with rescue networks.
  • Portable yet sturdy: Lightweight at about 555 g with a compact footprint, designed for mounting on vessels of all sizes—from small rigs to larger yachts.

Ideal use cases for mariners, adventurers, and professionals

Whether you’re sailing offshore, fishing in remote waters, or guiding expedition teams, the MT600G is engineered for reliability in isolation. It’s a standout choice for:

  • Coastal and offshore yachts needing robust, field-proven emergency signaling.
  • Commercial vessels and fishing fleets that require SOLAS-compliant safety gear.
  • Expedition boats and remote-charter operations where faster救援 localization reduces risk during distress.
  • Emergency MOB (man overboard) scenarios where precise GPS data accelerates recovery efforts.

How it helps you stay prepared

The MT600G isn’t just a beacon—it's a readiness system. Its advanced self-testing capability lets you verify functionality and battery status periodically, giving you confidence that the unit will perform when it matters. The combination of a 10-year battery life, quick-release manual bracket, and automatic antenna deployment means you can focus on safety rather than equipment management.

Maintenance, compliance, and practical considerations

With a 10-year battery replacement window and worldwide COSPAS-SARSAT certification, the MT600G aligns with international safety standards and simplifies regulatory compliance for commercial or recreational fleets. The compact, buoyant design ensures floatation and visibility in the water, while the SOLAS-grade reflector improves conspicuity in search conditions.

Equip your vessel with the MT600G GME 406MHz GPS EPIRB for precise, rapid localization, enhanced rescue accessibility, and long-term readiness. Its combination of GPS speed, homing signals, rugged build, and user-focused activation makes it a dependable cornerstone of maritime safety.
