PLB1 Fast Find 220

Personal Locator Beacon (PLB) · EPIRB / SART

Class-certified type (DNV register) · technical data sheet not yet verified​‌⁠⁠‍⁠‌⁠‌⁠⁠⁠⁠​‌‍‌⁠‍‌

McMurdo PLB1 Fast Find 220 is a emergency position-indicating radio beacon. It is normally installed in an approved accessible position, commonly near the bridge or externally in a float-free mounting depending on category. Its primary purpose is to transmit a distress alert and vessel identification for search-and-rescue response. Compared with routine ship radios, an EPIRB is a dedicated emergency beacon intended for distress alerting and autonomous deployment or manual activation. For exact ratings, dimensions, settings, capacities, materials and variant-specific limits, refer to the manufacturer documentation for the exact figure.

Free of charge — send us your request for McMurdo equipment. Our team checks it and replies by e-mail.

For marine equipment hardly any maker or authorised dealer will name a price while the vessel is unknown. With the vessel details, availability and price can be settled faster; without them we may have to ask first, which costs a few days. If you are not allowed to name the vessel, a photo of the rating plate is enough — attach it below or send it as a reply to our confirmation e-mail.
