EPIRB Emergency Position Indicating Radio Beacon Battery Replacement – Trusted Marine Service by SEANAV

Emergency Position Indicating Radio Beacons (EPIRBs) are critical lifesaving devices for any seagoing vessel. These devices automatically transmit distress signals when activated, ensuring fast location and rescue in emergencies. At SEANAV, we specialize in EPIRB battery replacement services for all major marine beacon brands, ensuring your equipment remains fully operational and compliant with maritime safety regulations.

The EPIRB battery must be replaced periodically—typically every 5 years or according to manufacturer guidelines. Failing to replace it on time could result in signal failure during an emergency. Our certified technicians handle battery replacements using approved battery kits, and we ensure all work complies with SOLAS, IMO, and flag state requirements.
