8.2 Characteristics
The EPIRB is a buoyant, battery operated unit. The beacon case, with its external antenna, is waterproof. The
semiconductor circuits are mounted within the case assembly that also contains the battery power supply. A “Test/ON”
switch is installed on top of the beacon, along with a strobe light. The Category I beacon must be stored in its special
mount, free of obstructions aboard a vessel for automatic float-off. The unit is self-buoyant and no external flotation
devices are required.
