C406-N HM
The Artex C406-N HM is a single output emergency locator transmitter (ELT) that contains the latitude/longitude information from the aircraft navigation system. Following long message protocol, the 406 MHz transmitter turns on and transmits an encoded digital message to the Cospas/Sarsat satellite system every 50 seconds for 520 milliseconds. During a crash, the ELT automatically activates and transmits the standard swept tone on 121.5 and 243.0 MHz.

By use of an optional programming adapter, the ELT can also be programmed with the aircraft’s 24-bit address for fleet operators as well as other custom programming. The C406-N HM ELT is available for helicopter (HM) applications with a multi-axis G-Switch.
ARTEX ELTs are the choice of rotorcraft aircraft including Sikorsky, Airbus Helicopters, AgustaWestland and Bell.
