IN STOCK - SAME DAY SHIPPING

Artex ME406 HM ELT is a single-output ELT designed for helicopters that uses the same RF output and only one coax cable to transmit a 406 MHz emergency signal to the Cospas-Sarsat satellites and a local 121.5 MHz homing signal.

In the event of an emergency, the ELT activates and transmits a continuous swept tone of 121.5 MHz while the 406 MHz transmitter sends an encoded 5-watt signal to the Cospas-Sarsat Satellites every 50 seconds for 440 milliseconds.

Simple Installation

The mounting hardware for the ME406 Series is compatible with all previous models of Artex 406 MHz ELT Products, as well as the ELT-200 Series, ACK, Pointer Model 3000, and Narco ELTs. Current owners of Artex 2-frequency TSO C91a ELTs can re-use the remote switch in the cockpit, as well as the wiring harness from the cockpit to the ELT. This greatly reduces installation costs.

ARTEX ELTs are the choice of general aviation aircraft, including Cessna, Piper, Cirrus, Beechcraft, Diamond, and Quest.
