Radar-SART (9 GHz) · EPIRB / SART
The Furuno NX-700A SART is a radar search-and-rescue transponder. It is normally installed with survival craft or GMDSS equipment for emergency deployment. It is designed for localization of survival craft by producing a recognizable response on nearby marine radar. The operating principle relies on response to interrogating radar signals. Compared with neighbouring models, the relevant differences are battery, antenna, mounting/deployment arrangement and exact response characteristics; these must be confirmed from the installed documentation rather than inferred from the model designation alone. Service and survey attention should concentrate on battery validity, self-test, antenna/casing, stowage and deployment equipment. For exact ratings, dimensions, tolerances, test limits and model-specific settings, refer to the manufacturer documentation for the exact figure.
What our service work and the manufacturer documentation say about keeping this model running.
Check battery/service expiry, approved self-test, casing, antenna, activation arrangement and identification/registration. Verify mounting, lanyard, pole or hydrostatic-release arrangement where applicable and ensure deployment is unobstructed. Do not generate a live distress transmission during routine inspection unless an authorized test procedure specifically requires it.
Internal repair is normally an authorized-service task. Carry only manufacturer-approved external mounting, lanyard, bracket, pole or hydrostatic-release parts where shipboard replacement is permitted, and schedule battery/service replacement before expiry.
