RADIO DIRECTIONFINDERS

& PERSONAL LOCATOR BEACONS

  • Rescue vessels
  • Law enforcement vessels, customs, pilotes
  • Rescue helicopters & airoplanes
  • Offshore oil & gas industries
  • Commercial vessels & ocean cruising yachts

Direction finders & PLB's permit fast, efficient localization of emergency beacons under any visibility conditions. RHOTHETA designs and produces reliable, high-precision direction finders for professional search-and-rescue organizations (SAR), such as the Deutsche Gesellschaft zur Rettung Schiffbrüchiger (DGzRS) and the Dutch Koninklijke Nederlandsche Redding Maatschapij (KNRM), worlds leading SAR organizations.

RT-B77 HELB Personal Locator Beacon
PLB_77b.jpg

The RT-B77 HELB is currently the most advanced and most powerful personal locator beacon (PLB) available on the market for man overboard (MOB) emergencies. The RT-B77 is designed for automatic activation upon contact with water or inflation of the wearer’s life jacket and can also be activated manually.

This PLB also features a second frequency that can be used for testing or training purposes. Transmission of a dedicated ID and simple control of system and maintenance data by means of an IrDA interface are important benefits for operators of larger fleets. Autotest functions and status reports are announced by the system's speaker to guarantee high availability.

The RT-B77 suits very well at oil & gas plaforms for personal protecting at high risk jobs like scaffolding, welding & painting jobs. The RT-B77 fits perfect for intergration in helicopter survivelsuits and lifejackets

RT-100 PLB emergency alarm receiver "Crewguard"

RT_100_klein.jpgThe RT-100 Emergency Receiver (also marketed under the name “CrewGuard ”) monitors the international emergency frequency 121.500 MHz. The receiver triggers an acoustic alarm whenever a signal is received on this frequency. At the same time, a relay activates external alarm devices.

In the “selective squelch” mode, an alarm is triggered only if the signal is transmitted by an emergency beacon (ELT, PLB or EPIRB ). This eliminates false alarms caused by radio frequency interference or radio traffic from aircraft that use this frequency as a calling frequency.

The RT-100 suits very well at oil & gas platforms for protecting high risk jobs like scaffolding, welding & painting jobs.

- External alarm output for integration in general alarm systems.
- Standard Test and Exercise frequency build in for training.
